Show IH: I built VideoASMR โ€“ AI-generated 4K ASMR (30 free credits)

Hi Indie Hackers! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Iโ€™m JackL, a solo dev who loves the oddly-satisfying world of ASMR.

๐ŸŽฏ The problem
Recording those ice-cutting, slime-stretching videos is surprisingly hard:

Messy setup (melting ice, sticky slime).

Studio lights + camera gear arenโ€™t cheap.

One 10-second clip can take an hour to film and clean up.

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ My solution โ€“ VideoASMR.ai
An end-to-end AI pipeline (powered by Googleโ€™s VEO-3) that spits out a fixed-camera, 8s ASMR clip in about a minute.

Features today:

Trigger templates โ€“ ice, slime, kinetic sand, soap carving.

One-click variations โ€“ change material, color or lighting without editing timelines.

4K seamless export โ€“ MP4/WebM + vertical crop for Shorts/Reels.

โš™๏ธ Tech stack
Next.js + Tailwind โ€“ marketing site & dashboard

Supabase โ€“ auth, Postgres, storage

Cloudflare Workers โ€“ job orchestration

Serverless GPU nodes

R2 โ€“ finished video storage

Total build time: ~30 days nights & weekends.

๐Ÿ“ˆ Early traction
110 beta users (friends, TikTok creators, a wellness-app PM).

Avg. render time: 80 s.

First beta TikTok got 41 % watch-through and 3 k views with zero spend.

๐Ÿš€ Roadmap
16-second renders (in test).

More โ€œmaterial presetsโ€ (glass, honeycomb, confetti).

Simple caption/music overlay tool.

Marketplace for user-shared prompts.

๐Ÿ™ How you can help
Try it โ€“ 30 extra credits auto-added when you sign up this week.

Brutally honest landing-page feedback (does the value click in <5 s?).

Ideas on non-paid growth channels (Google Ads is still learning).

Iโ€™ll hang out here all dayโ€”happy to answer anything about VEO-3 integration, GPU costs, or indie marketing! Thanks for reading and good luck with your own builds ๐Ÿš€
