Business Idea:
A secure, temporary sharing platform that allows developers to share private GitHub repositories with recruiters and clients without risking clones or downloads, with customizable expiry and view limits.
Problem:
Developers often need to showcase private code to recruiters or clients but face security risks and proprietary concerns when granting access, especially if they cannot control downloads or copies.
Solution:
A web service that creates secure, read-only, temporary views of private GitHub repositories, ensuring control over how long and how many times the code can be viewed, preventing clones/downloads.
Target Audience:
Software developers, freelancers, startups, and companies needing confidential code sharing, especially those hiring or collaborating remotely.
Monetization:
Subscription plans for teams or enterprises, one-time payments for premium features, or usage-based fees for extended view/error limits.
Unique Selling Proposition (USP):
Unlike typical sharing tools, it emphasizes absolute security—no cloning or downloading—along with customizable expiry and view caps, providing peace of mind and control.
Launch Strategy:
Start with a simple MVP offering basic secure repo views, gather feedback from early users, refine features, and run targeted outreach to developer communities and recruitment firms to validate demand.
