About

I am currently working on APISelf marketplace and ecosystem for self-hosted, "buy-once, own-forever" micro-applications with API and UI, offering a privacy-first alternative to traditional recurring SaaS (Software as a Service) subscriptions

APISelf File Drop Box - Share a file straight from your disk. No cloud upload.

File Drop Box runs on your own computer and turns any file into a share link. The recipient's browser connects straight to your machine over WebRTC, so the bytes never pass through a server. Optional end-to-end encryption. One-time licence, no subscription.

APISelf - Local-first API,MCP,SaaS ecosystem with no subscriptions

APISelf is a desktop marketplace of local-first apps that double as APIs and MCP tools so you, Claude Desktop or Cursor can call them directly. Everything runs on your own machine, works offline, and keeps your data with you. Subscriptions don't exist: each app is a one-time unlock. Need cloud AI? Bring your own keys, they stay local and you pay providers directly, at cost. Free launcher and free tier, forever.

1,900+ signups, 15,800 unique website visits, and own.page’s Product Hunt launch

Hi Product Hunt. I am Elitza and I am the founder of own.page. We launched on Product Hunt 20 days ago, and since then, it has brought us more than 1,900 signups.

I waited a long time before launching own.page here. Not because I didn t want to, actually, I wanted it a lot. But Product Hunt always felt like one of those big platforms where, if things go well, it can really change the momentum of a product. And because of that, I kept delaying it. For more than 6 months. I was thinking too much. What if the day is too competitive? What if nobody cares? What if we launch and nothing happens?

On X, I often saw people saying Product Hunt is dead. That it doesn t bring traffic anymore. That launches don t matter like they used to. But still, I wanted to do it no matter what people are saying. Before this, I had launched own.page on smaller launchpads. And yes, they helped. They brought some users, some traffic, some attention. I m grateful for that. But honestly it was nothing like Product Hunt.
