Bulk retire and manage domains for vibe-coded apps with zero visitors
- Problem
- Many developers keep buying domains for vibe-coded apps that get no traffic, ending up with a graveyard of unused domains. One maker admitted, "I'm addicted to buying domains for my vibe-coded apps that get 0 visitors." Managing renewals, DNS, and deciding what to kill is tedious and easy to forget.
- Solution
- Connect registrar APIs to list all domains and their attached projects with traffic stats. A "zombie projects" dashboard sorts by traffic and renewal cost, generating a kill-or-keep list in one click. Batch DNS editing and a unified landing page redirect are included.
- Users
- Indie hackers who hoard domains, vibe coders, and hackers running multiple side projects.
- MVP
- Import domains from Namecheap/Cloudflare; link each domain to a project and its traffic stats via API or manual input; flag zero-traffic domains as zombies; sort by annual cost and export a renew/kill list.
- Revenue
- Free for up to 5 domains; $5/month subscription for unlimited domains and traffic sync; affiliate kickbacks from registrars.
- Why now
- AI makes building sites nearly free, turning domain hoarding into a new digital clutter problem; the surge of indie developers needs a lightweight tool to stop the bleeding.
