UseThatApp - Sell your web app with one buy link

Hey Product Hunt! We're Norm and Ben, the co-founders of **UseThatApp (usethatapp.com)**, and we're excited to introduce what we've been building. **Why did we build UseThatApp?** Building software has never been easier. With AI-assisted coding, open-source tools, and modern development frameworks, independent developers can now create applications that once required entire development teams. However, there's still a major problem: **building an app and making money from it are two very different challenges.** You can spend months developing a great product, only to discover that selling it requires an entirely different set of skills and infrastructure: payment processing, subscription management, sales tax compliance, customer acquisition, a website and marketing. We built UseThatApp to help eliminate those barriers. **Who is it for?** Independent developers, indie hackers, AI app builders, SaaS founders, and small software companies who have built something useful and want a quick and easy way to monetize it. Whether you've developed an AI agent, an engineering calculator, a business automation tool, a productivity application, or a specialized web-based solution, we want to help you turn that software into a revenue-generating product quickly and effortlessly. **How does it work?** Our goal is straightforward: **You build the app. We help you sell it.** Developers can list their applications on UseThatApp and provide customers with a buy link designed to handle the commercial side of software sales, including: - **Checkout and payments** — A streamlined purchasing experience for customers. - **Subscriptions** — Support for recurring billing and subscription-based products. - **Sales tax and EU VAT** — Tax calculation and handling through the platform's payment infrastructure. - **Developer payouts** — A mechanism for developers to receive their share of sales revenue. - **Marketplace discovery** — An additional channel where potential customers can find and purchase applications. The idea is to reduce the amount of commerce infrastructure every developer must build and maintain independently. **What we'd really like to hear from developers** We're not here just to announce another marketplace. We're here to learn what would make UseThatApp genuinely valuable to the developer community. A few questions: 1. What's your biggest obstacle to monetizing an application you've already built? 2. Would you prefer a marketplace that manages checkout, subscriptions, tax handling, and payouts rather than integrating those services yourself? 3. What would convince you to list your application on a new marketplace? 4. What features or integrations would you consider essential before trusting a platform to handle your software sales? We're particularly interested in hearing from developers who have working applications but haven't yet found an effective way to commercialize them. **Our long-term vision is to make selling software as straightforward as building it.** Thanks for checking us out. We're looking forward to your feedback and to connecting with developers who want to grow alongside us. — Norm & Ben Co-founders, UseThatApp https://usethatapp.com
