Indiehacking so couple of serious things and then some just starting out and some mostly for myself.
Serious ones making over 2k/mo
https://bestphoto.ai/ - AI Img/Video tools
https://aieasypic.com - Original version of above, still making some money
New things not making money yet
https://admakeai.com - AI ads generator for facebook ads. Made mostly so I have a easy way to prompt for stuff and keep track of good AI ad prompts. Have been using it to make static image ads for BestPhoto and actually have over 40 conversions at $~45/conv. Pretty good considering my previous attempts with my own handmade ads using canva was like $80-100/conv. but most of the time FB wouldn't even spend anything from my budget before
Fun stuff/for myself:
https://xhdr.org/ - Made like a few months back when twitter was allowing HDR images in your profile pictures, they patched it like a week later, but was fun while it lasted. Still works for facebook, keeping it up for FB video ads, I've noticed people abusing this a lot when scrolling on FB recently searching for good ads, so I'm guessing it works? Good way to get attention of people on iphone quick
https://framecall.com - Saw people making cool AI motion videos using the claude code skill with remotion, so packaged it into an actual web app you can use as a chat instead of through terminal. Harder than expected to get all the tool calling(and auto continue) stuff to work, similar to how claude code works
TranslateVoice(name TBD) - An iphone voice translate app where you tap microphone button and it uses 4o realtime to translate between you and someone else. This was originally one of the biggest thing I was hyped about as a usecase when 4o released but when I tried it on their app, it just didn't do prompt following well at all it would randomly try to communicate with the user instead of strictly translating, just randomly cutting off someone before they finish speaking etc. Currently have 3 modes that work, that if no one else uses I will be using:
1. Interpreter mode: Basically User 1 speaks to phone in their language, phone talks to user 2 in their language, user 2 replies to phone in their language, phone replies to user 1 in their language etc. Just pure translation, with chat history transcribed in each other's language
2. "Friend mode": You tell it a general goal, "I want to get immigration documents, I need to know the requirements" it then basically acts as if its a friend you called to help with translation and gathers everything while talking back and forth with User 2 and then at the end goes back to user 1 with all the info.
3. Stealth mode: Airpods in, it will transcribe and translate everything being spoken and tell you what to say based on initial goal or you can also write extra instructions in the chat. This is currently the only non-working/buggy one I'm trying to figure out before releasing this, since both will be speaking in same language its hard for model to know who is user 1 and who is user 2 automatically.
First time I'm creating an Iphone app fully vibecoded(react native so I understand whats going on frontend wise at least cause of react). Not looking forward to the app store review process. And I know this is likely something someone already made but its probably paid and I have like $25k in Azure credits I can burn anyways.
