You're probably spending too much on APIs. OpenAI. Whisper. CloudConvert.

These tools all run the same kind of code—just hosted, wrapped in a paywall. I replaced all of them with a self-hosted API I control.

No subscriptions.

No usage caps.

No surprise fees.

If you're tired of renting access to other people’s code, this is your next step.

Build once.

Run forever.
