For indie projects, by an indie dev

Ads that respect your visitors.

A tiny, hand-reviewed ad spot on my indie projects — starting with make-a-wrapped. Flat monthly price, a hard cap on slots, and zero tracking. No ad network in sight.

Your indie project

One honest sentence about what you built.

Create an account, pick a tier, upload your creative and link. You'll see a live preview of exactly how it will render.

I review it by hand

Every single ad is approved by a human (me). Nothing goes live — and nothing is charged — before it passes review.

It runs. Fairly.

Approved ads rotate evenly with the other advertisers in their tier. Cancel any month; your slot opens up for the next project.

Two tiers. Hard caps. That's it.

When the slots are gone, they're gone — this never turns into an infinite ad wall. Billing only starts after your creative passes manual review.

“This ad respects your privacy” — provably.

Every ad served through this platform carries that link, and it points to a plain-language page describing exactly what is measured (an anonymous counter per ad per day) and what never is (you). No cookies, no fingerprints, no third parties.
