An ad-monetized, serverless AI roasting app built securely with vanilla HTML/JS
Project Overview Roast Me is a production-ready, fully automated AI entertainment web application. Users upload a selfie or group photo, select their preferred "spice level" (Mild, Medium, Savage), and instantly receive a highly engaging, custom AI-generated roast. The app features a built-in monetization engine: users get 3 free roasts, after which they must interact with an ad to unlock additional credits. It is a completely hands-off, turnkey software asset built to scale virally with $0 in maintenance overhead. Tech Stack & Engineering Architecture The core selling point of this asset is its lightweight, dependency-free development architecture: Frontend: Pure vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It is extremely fast, responsive, has zero bloated node packages, and is hosted completely for free via Vercel folder deployment. Backend API: Powered securely by Val Town serverless functions. AI Engine: Integrated via Groq API for near-instantaneous, high-performance image token analysis and language processing. Security & Bot Protection: Features native hCaptcha integration on the upload sequence to completely block automated spam bots and guard your API budget. đź’µ Verified Monetization & Early Traction Unlike simple code boilerplates, this application features a fully tested, functional credit loop integrated seamlessly with the Adsterra Publisher Network. Organic Validation: With $0 spent on marketing, a single promotional post on Reddit drove real, high-intent traffic to the Vercel app. High Performance: Live dashboard analytics show a highly lucrative ad integration, generating Click-Through Rates (CTR) reaching between 7.5% and 11.8% on active impressions. Turnkey Passive Potential: All ad networks and credit counters are fully wired and functional. The application naturally offsets its minimal API expenses via ad impressions. What is Included in the Sale? 100% full ownership transfer of the frontend source code repository (including all UI components and logo assets). The complete Val Town serverless backend integration code script. Full access transition to a pre-bundled master email account containing the active Groq, hCaptcha, and Val Town configurations for an instant, 5-minute setup. Step-by-step documentation guiding the new owner through swapping in their personal Adsterra scripts to claim 100% of the ongoing revenue.
Email account, All related data, All related design work, Domain name, Source code
The sale includes the full takeover of a dedicated, pre-bundled master transfer email account (roastmeapptransfer@gmail.com). All active backend development console accounts—including Val Town (housing the serverless API scripts), Groq Console (managing the AI token keys), and hCaptcha (running the bot-protection site keys)—have already been safely migrated to this master email address. This allows for a 100% turnkey handover, meaning the buyer can change the passwords and assume full operational control of the complete full-stack environment instantly.
Reason for selling
I am primarily a developer who loves the engineering side of building full-stack applications. I built this app to successfully design a lightweight vanilla architecture, secure serverless backend execution, and an automated ad-monetization credit loop. The technical product is 100% complete and working perfectly, but I don't have the time or interest to focus on growth marketing and content creation. I am selling it to hand over a clean, turnkey engine to a creator or marketer who can scale it virally.
