Author here! I've not been compensated by the Petal Pro devs at all. I've interacted with them exactly twice—once in support and once to submit the world's tiniest PR. I'm just a happy customer.
(If that's not enough, you can dig in to the Petal Components repo and see I'm not a contributor.)
Ah shoot, well then I'm sorry, that is unfair criticism on my part.
The pitch was just so direct, coupled with the perfect topic of "Want to build a SaaS? Use Elixir" I would have assumed you owned the paid boilerplate you discussed.
I unfortunately can't edit the post but I upvoted this in the hopes that people see it.

We're working to make the future of energy production more sustainable by helping energy utility companies balance the grid. This includes everything from helping lower peak energy usage (removing the need to, say, build an expensive new coal power plant that would only be run a few days a year) to balancing decentralized production from household solar.
Our back-end is written primarily in Elixir, and our front-end is Elm. We also have microservices running Python on AWS Lambda. We have a strong cultural focus on things that make devs' lives better day-to-day—things like testing, being kind & helpful to one another, code reviews that are valuable for both parties, continual improvement in our processes, etc.

* On a personal note, we really value our QA folks and treat them well. (I think the posted salary range hints at that.) We want QA deeply involved with the whole software development lifecycle, rather than something that gets tacked on at the "end" (ha!) of development.

It's not a full game server, but the "Usage" section of the README provides a sketch of what the rest of the server (the part that implements the business logic) looks like.
