Hidezen

Hi IndieHackers 👋

After working in the VPN industry for almost a decade, I decided to build my own VPN service completely from scratch — and today I’m launching Hidezen into public beta.

No prebuilt dashboards, no WHMCS, no tracking — just a clean backend I developed myself using PHP + Python, with automated config generation and license activation.

🆓 It’s 100% free during the entire beta

No signup, no credit card, no bandwidth limits. Just visit the website, activate with a 20-digit code, and connect using any standard VPN client.

💡 What’s working right now:

• Full support for OpenVPN & WireGuard

• Instant code-based activation

• Automated server deployment

• Works with any standard VPN app (manual config import)

🚀 What’s next:

• Native apps for Windows, Android, iOS, macOS, Linux

• Subscription model after production release

• A free tier will always remain — with limited servers/features

🌐 Try it now → https://hidezen.com

Would love to hear your feedback on:

• Activation experience

• Trust & transparency

• How you’d approach monetization

Thanks for checking it out!

Hey IndieHackers! 👋

After 10 years in the VPN industry, I’ve finally started my own project — Hidezen.

I built everything myself: backend infrastructure, licensing system, configuration generators (WireGuard & OpenVPN), and full server deployment automation.

No WHMCS, no prebuilt dashboards, no tracking. Just a clean, fully custom VPN backend.

🧱 Built with:

• Backend written in PHP + Python

• License activation via 20-digit code

• WireGuard & OpenVPN configuration generation

• Server deployment scripts

• Access currently via standard VPN apps

🎯 Goal:

The current goal is to build dedicated VPN applications for all major platforms: Windows, Android, iOS, macOS, and Linux.

Once all apps are complete and the service moves from beta to production, paid plans will be introduced. However, a free tier will always remain available — with limited features, fewer servers, and possibly reduced speeds.

🔓 Until then, the entire service is 100% free with no limitations — unlimited access, all locations, no sign-up, no card.

🔧 Currently working on:

• Android and iOS apps

• Native apps for macOS and Linux

• Windows client already in development

• Monetization system (after full release)

Would love your feedback on:

• Activation flow

• Transparency and trust

• Monetization strategy

Thanks for reading!
