Red flags

Not a solo team

Can a solo dev do this?

Startup cost (Low) Servers plus time to build scan rules.
Skills (High) Medium–high web security and BaaS misconfiguration knowledge.
Acquisition TikTok · Reddit · vibe coding communities · SEO
Payments Stripe · Merchant of record (Paddle, Lemon Squeezy, Creem…). Stripe/Creem/Lemon Squeezy for SaaS billing.
Solo fit (Good fit) Demand rises with vibe coding; free scan pages are strong SEO hooks—clarify liability for false positives.
