Build me a Developer Tools web app like Prototipal.

Prototipal does: AI video platform to generate images and videos from text via web app or API. It reportedly makes about $2k/mo, so the core idea clearly has demand — I want a lean version I can run and charge for.

Start from the open-source project mohyware/clip-js (https://github.com/mohyware/clip-js) — reuse what fits, strip its branding, and build the specifics below on top of it.

Requirements:
- Turn a script or prompt into a short video: scenes, captions, voiceover (TTS), and B-roll.
- Timeline editor to tweak scenes; render to MP4.
- Templates for common formats (reels, explainers).

Also:
- Clean, modern, responsive UI with a thoughtful landing page.
- Email/password auth and a simple paid tier (Stripe test mode) so it's ready to charge.
- A README covering setup, environment variables, and how to deploy.

Ship a working MVP I can run locally first, then help me deploy it.
Copy it into any coding agent — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf — or one-click into BuildCheap (imports the repo so you start from a running app).

Questions

Can I really build something like Prototipal?

Yes. Prototipal is a developer tools product doing ~$2.2k/mo — the core loop is well understood. With the prompt on this page and the open-source repo mohyware/clip-js as a base, a coding agent like Claude Code or BuildCheap can get you a working MVP in a weekend.

How much does Prototipal make?

Around $2.2k/mo based on public revenue data. That's the whole point of CopyMRR — you're copying something with proven demand, not guessing.

What repo does this start from?

mohyware/clip-js (742★). "Clone & ship" imports it straight into BuildCheap so you start from a running app, then adapt it.

Is this affiliated with Prototipal?

No. CopyMRR indexes public revenue data and points you at open-source building blocks. Build your own thing — don't copy their brand or content.
