Hey Plebs. OP here.

some months ago I built a GPT Cover Letter generator: upload the job description and your cover letter as a pdf, and it will generate a unique cover letter based on your skills.

I give users 3 free trials, after which they can buy a pro account (via Stripe), or login with their lightning wallets and pay 30 sats (approx $0.01 USD) per generation/edit.

I figured that micro-payments per generation/edit would be a great way for unbanked people/citizens of high-inflation countries to take advantage of my product.

I've also open-sourced all the code here: https://github.com/vincanger/coverlettergpt

so if you're curious how to use lightning as a pay-per-API-request tool, check it out.

also, I'm just getting started so if anyone has any feedback or wants to submit PRs, i'd really appreciate it 🙏

This is really awesome. Giving services users need, and then make the lightning payment option more friendly. Thanks for the demo on our last Alby community call!

Tested, nice! I would suggest to explain a little what the service is about, and maybe show a couple of examples. Users usually don't have a fake CV at hand ;)
