Show HN: Built a platform where devs/designers make $20k/mo from their work docs
tapflow.coHey HN,
I noticed senior tech folks have valuable knowledge in their work docs – processes, templates, guides. This is expertise worth thousands, sitting unused. But they rarely share it: too busy for courses, unsure about value, or overwhelmed by setup.
I built Tapflow (https://tapflow.co) to fix this:
- Notion-like editor you already know
- Drop your content, set price
- Get instant product page
- Built-in payments
Numbers:
- Some early users made $20k+ from their products
- 1000+ registered pros, mostly word of mouth, Reddit and PH
- Profitable, bootstrapped side-project
Would love feedback:
- What stops you from sharing your expertise?
- How would you price your technical knowledge?
Try it: https://tapflow.co
Stack:
Backend: nginx, express.js, Apollo GraphQL, postgreSQL, redis, Stripe
Frontend: next.js, react-query, GraphQL, Material UI, yoopta wysiwyg Hosting: AWS, DigitalOcean, bunny.net
Free to use, 10% fee on sales or Pro tier. If people write for their employer, you cannot simply copy the documents over. They are the legal property of the employer in almost all cases How does this work? I mean what are the use cases for this platform? Do I still have to share my product page somewhere else or is there an organic traffic to your site? It’s not a marketplace (yet), so you’ll share your product page yourself. It’s built for quick publishing, ideal if you already have an audience.
