InviteFlow – Self-serve invite key distribution
Let indie developers distribute invite codes/keys without manual replies in threads
- Problem
- After shipping an AI app quickly, indie developers invite friends to try it. Threads fill up with 'XXX claimed' and 'XXX used', forcing the developer to manually skip claimed codes and track nothing. It's slow and error-prone, with keys leaking publicly.
- Solution
- A lightweight invite distribution page: upload a batch of keys, choose claim modes (direct claim / email delivery / manual binding), auto-deduplicate, track statuses, and show a live dashboard. Developers see who claimed what and can export data.
- Users
- Indie developers, small teams, community managers distributing invite codes or trial keys
- MVP
- Standalone invite page with optional branding; three claim modes: direct claim, email capture, and manual binding; auto-dedupe and claimed status; dashboard with CSV export; free tier plus paid custom domain/API
- Revenue
- Free tier limited by keys and claims; paid unlocks custom domain, API, webhooks, bulk email, and analytics via monthly subscription
- Why now
- AI shortens validation cycles, making invite distribution a frequent micro-pain; existing solutions are either spreadsheets or heavy SaaS, leaving room for a simple, shareable indie tool
