We've been building Surgent.dev, a vibe coding platform where the sites you build can accept payments out of the box. The problem we kept running into was someone prompts a nice website, then has to leave the builder and figure out payments separately. So we made payments a native part of the build. You describe the site, it generates, payments work on deploy. ~5,000 users on the platform right now. Still early, shipping fast. Would be down to hear what this community thinks. surgent.dev

@shapelayer theres no way

THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOLS POST. made this entire launch video from a single prompt in under 3 minutes AI is gonna replace us step-by-step in the replies🧵

@jynxzi just played my game on stream. also we hit 4M plays the same day. play 67speed.com

one thing you learn working in ugc at startups: most ugc creators have zero creative ability they’re just good at copying what already works same scripts, same formats, same structure i’ve seen people hit 10k in days without posting anything original once content is repeatable, it’s replaceable this current version of ugc won’t last

my ugc script generated 500m+ views in 90 days youve probably seen at least one company using my script “day 1 of stealing startup ideas and rebuilding them with ai” every vibe coding platform is using it every ugc program is pushing it this ugc space isn’t as big as it looks when something works, everyone copies it

built a simple browser game called 67speed.com it hit 1M users right as the “67” meme died 20 days later: 2M users growth didn’t slow down, it accelerated at first it spread because of the trend then it spread because of the product today it’s at 3.5M users

Here's the issue with vibe coding in 2026: Building an app takes 20 minutes. Getting your first payment? → Set up Stripe manually → Figure out auth → Deploy to production → Hope it doesn't break Most people quit right there. The gap between "app is done" and "first dollar" has killed more ideas than bad code ever did.
