StreamVault Audit Report
Audit of StreamVault — OTT streaming platform SaaS. Netflix-style. Browse page is superb; landing page sparse but functional; login page polished. Public /browse works without auth (atypical — likely needs gating).
Executive Summary
StreamVault’s /browse page is genuinely beautiful — hero with Crimson Horizon featured, Continue Watching / Trending / Top Rated / New Releases / Popular TV Shows / Live TV rows — all perfectly Netflix-esque. Landing page at / has only a hero and dashboard preview (no feature grid, testimonials, pricing on scroll — they’re blank). Login form is clean with Google + Apple OAuth. Credentials: [email protected] / password, [email protected] / demo123.

Screenshots
Bugs
Landing page sections below hero don't render
- Page
/- Observed
- Only hero + dashboard preview visible; scroll reveals empty dark space until footer.
- Fix
- Wire up feature/plan/testimonial data to existing components OR delete the placeholder sections.
/browse is publicly accessible even without subscription — likely a bug
- Observed
- Netflix-style browse is a premium feature, yet no middleware gate exists.
- Fix
- Add
/browsetoPROTECTED_PATHSin middleware OR gate specific premium titles behind subscription check.
Thumbnails use gradient placeholders (no real movie posters)
- Page
/browse- Fix
- Seed DB with movie image URLs or use a placeholder image service.
Recommendation
Fix the landing-page hydration, add auth gating to /browse, seed movie posters — ~4 hours to ship-ready. The core experience (browse) is already excellent.
