Hey IH π
I'm Raju. After watching every Indian creator I know lose βΉ50,000ββΉ2 lakh a year to brand-deal paperwork (not because
brands cheat β because Indian tax + invoicing is brutal and no existing creator tool fits), I shipped CreatorKhata.
The problem: existing creator stacks (Bonsai, HoneyBook, Notion templates) assume Stripe payments + W-9 tax forms.
Indian creators deal with:
β’ GST registration at βΉ20 lakh turnover, with state-specific CGST/SGST/IGST splits
β’ TDS deducted by every brand under Section 194J (10%) / 194C / 194H / 194R
β’ Form 16A chase loops to claim TDS back at ITR time
β’ MSME 45-day payment rule (which nobody enforces because tracking is hard)
β’ AdSense as "export of services" (0% GST under LUT) β only if registered
I built one tool that handles all of it natively, plus an AI content suite (captions, 8-platform repurpose) on Groq
Llama for free.
Stack: React + Spring Boot + Supabase + Razorpay + Groq + Resend, hosted on Vercel + Render. Bootstrapped, solo,
India-first.
Pricing: Free forever for content workflow. PRO βΉ199/month for business ops.
Three things I'd love feedback on:
1. Is the "all-in-one for India" angle clear in 10 seconds on the landing page?
2. For Indian creators here β what's the one paperwork pain that takes most of your time? Is it on my feature list?
3. Pricing β βΉ199/month feels right for India but I have zero data. Reactions welcome.
