In this video, I’m making a second attempt at building a 10K MRR app from scratch—except this time I’m going simpler and faster. My first idea (AI-generated filler videos for YouTubers) didn’t pan out because the margins were tiny and the output quality wasn’t reliable. So I went back to the drawing board, scrolled through some X posts, found TrustMRR, and used that as inspiration to build something cheaper and simpler: a “link in bio” style SaaS that people can actually pay for and use. I walk through how I’m approaching this like a real solo dev launch: reusing what I can (landing page UI, Stripe billing flow, Supabase setup), and focusing on getting an MVP out in a few days. I use Cursor to speed up building the main page and dashboard, set up authentication with email verification (via Resend), and make the paywall simple: your page only goes live after you subscribe with Stripe. Then I shift into marketing mode—posting on Reddit, setting up an X account to document progress, planning a Product Hunt launch, and enabling Vercel Analytics so I can actually measure what’s working. Even if this app doesn’t win, the goal is to make the next launch way smoother by improving my reusable SaaS foundation.
