The story

Why EraserImg is for sale

This is written in the first person because it is a personal story before it is a product listing. EraserImg started as one person's problem and grew into something much larger than expected. Here is what actually happened.

An agency built to the same scope as this platform is typically priced in the $14,000 to $25,000 range.

It was never meant to be sold

EraserImg did not start as a project I planned to sell. When I began building it my intention was completely different. I wanted to turn it into my own product and eventually build a real online business around it. The idea started from a simple problem I ran into myself. I needed to remove the background from an image and wanted a clean result without losing quality or changing the rest of the photo. I tried the tools already out there and kept hitting the same limits. That small problem became the starting point for something much bigger. At the time I had no idea I would spend the next three months building an entire image processing platform around it.

One tool became a whole platform

The first version was simple. The goal was just to solve the background removal problem properly. But once I started building I kept finding other small image problems people run into every day. Background removal. Format conversion. Compression. Resizing. Filters. QR code generation. GIF creation. Text extraction. PDF tools. And a long list of smaller utilities on top of those. Instead of building a separate site for every one of these I put everything into a single platform. That is how EraserImg grew from one idea into a collection of 99 image tools. Three of those tools became the main featured ones while the rest were built around the same goal of making everyday image tasks easier to reach from one place.

Three months of building

Building EraserImg was not a weekend project. For roughly three months I worked on it almost every day, often eight or nine hours at a time. Some days were spent writing new features. Some were spent fixing bugs. Some were spent testing image processing until it held up. A large share of that time went into the parts users never see. Error handling. Performance. Connecting services. Fixing edge cases. Making sure every one of the 99 tools actually worked the way it was supposed to. I was not building this with a plan to sell the code one day. I was building something I genuinely wanted to keep.

Then the plan changed

After three months of steady work EraserImg was finally something I could put in front of real people. The plan was to keep improving it and grow it into my own business. There was one problem code alone could not fix. Money. Running an image processing platform is not the same as running a simple website. As usage grows the infrastructure needs grow with it. The free and hobby level services I was using were fine while I was building and testing but they were never going to hold up as a long term base for a growing product. Moving to proper paid infrastructure needed a budget I did not have at the time. That forced a decision I did not want to make. I had to consider selling the project.

Why I built a marketplace instead of just listing it

Once selling felt like the practical option I started looking for a place to list it. Marketplaces like CodeCanyon and Envato were the obvious first stops. List the code somewhere established, find a buyer, let someone else continue what I started. But the more I looked the more I realized none of the existing options were really built for what I wanted to sell. Some were not a good fit anymore and others just were not the right shape for this kind of product. I already had the skills to build a website of my own so I asked myself a simple question. What if I built the kind of marketplace I was actually looking for. Not a giant platform trying to compete with the established ones. Just a straightforward place where a developer could list a finished project and sell the source code directly. That question became Get EraserImg.

Why this page exists

I did not want to put a price tag on EraserImg and simply say 99 tools, full source code, buy now. Anyone can write that sentence. Someone spending real money on source code deserves to know what they are actually buying. So this page tells the real sequence of events instead of a shortened marketing version. The problem that started it. The months of daily work. The reason it ended up for sale. Not because the story makes the code better, but because there is a real difference between something built over a weekend to flip and something someone spent months building because they genuinely wanted it to become a business.

Where things stand today

EraserImg is still the same project I set out to build for myself. The only thing that changed is what I had to do with it. I did not stop because I lost interest and I did not build it as a template just to put a price on it. I built a real platform and three months later I had one. Then the choice came down to two options. Let the project sit unused because I could not currently afford the infrastructure it needed, or give someone else the chance to take it further. I chose the second option, and that is why EraserImg is for sale and why Get EraserImg exists in the first place.

What buying it actually means

You get the complete ready made source code as a zip: every script and file the live platform runs on. You will still need to add your own credentials to a .env.local file such as Google OAuth, Facebook OAuth, and your Supabase keys, all documented step by step inside the zip, and put it on paid hosting of your own. Vercel for the frontend and Hugging Face for the backend is the same combination it was built and run on, plus a domain of your choice.

If you are not technical, the setup document inside the zip walks through where each credential comes from. A short tutorial for any individual step, such as generating a Supabase key, usually clears it up quickly.

See it before you buy it

You do not have to take any of this on faith. The live product is linked from the home page so you can try the actual tools yourself before spending anything.

The full source code download only unlocks in your account after payment is confirmed and verified server side. It is never exposed before that.
