TheDataShark.com — Built a SaaS in 4 Days with Claude Code

Every US and UK business that collects personal data needs a privacy policy. Most pay $300+ for a lawyer to produce a generic template. The ones who skip it risk CCPA, CPRA, and GDPR enforcement actions.

I wanted to build a tool that generates personalised, compliance-ready legal documents in under 3 minutes — no legal expertise required, no account needed to start.

TheDataShark is a full SaaS product that generates privacy policies, cookie policies, terms and conditions, and data processing agreements for US and UK businesses.

The user completes a short questionnaire: company name, data types collected, third-party tools (Google Analytics, Stripe, Mailchimp, Meta Pixel, etc.), and lawful basis for processing. The engine merges those answers into a fully personalised, legally-structured document — not a fill-in-the-blank template.

8 document types covering CCPA, CPRA, UK GDPR, PECR, COPPA, and 50+ US state and federal laws

Questionnaire wizard that takes ~3 minutes to complete

Instant PDF generation delivered to the user's inbox

Razorpay payment integration with one-time purchases, bundles, and subscription trials

Multi-jurisdiction support (US pricing in USD, UK pricing in GBP)

I built the entire product in 4 days using Claude Code as my primary development partner.

The workflow: I described the business logic, compliance requirements, and user flows in plain language. Claude Code generated the PHP backend, the questionnaire logic, the document templating engine, and the payment integration. I reviewed, tested, and iterated — steering the architecture while Claude handled the volume of code output.

This is what vibe coding looks like when applied to a real product with real compliance stakes. AI handled the implementation velocity; I handled the domain knowledge, architecture decisions, and quality control.

A live, revenue-generating SaaS product at thedatashark.com — serving US and UK businesses, processing payments, and generating legally-structured documents on demand. Built in 4 days, not 4 months.
