I Want to Sell My Bots

[CoderFromHell]

So I built a few bots in Python using selenium, that have helped me get limited released sneakers from Nike, Adidas, Supreme etc, and have a bunch of clients lined up to buy. The only thing is, Im concerned about selling the .exe (the bot), and it not being compatible on my clients computers. Ive never sold my personal software before so my concern is, Should I package my software up with Selenium Webdriver included, or should I have the clients download python to their computer along with the Webdriver etc. I would have tested this out myself on other computers honestly if the whole world wasn't on quarantine. but unfortunately i dont have any other computers to test my bot on.


Could I test my software out in a Windows vm?



I hope this was clear.

Yes, you need to thoroughly test your bot before releasing it publicly. It isn't difficult to setup a test lab.
You can also release a beta specifically labeled for testing. Have your clients report any bugs.
How do you plan to prvent your bot from being cracked?

You said you successfully botted supreme. How are you handling pooky?

• You could pack it in a SaaS so you don't need to test in the customer machine
• If you want to test, you could rent a VM to do the test, Redhat, Oracle, and Amazon give you "free ride" trials.

I wonder what is the hype about Nike sneakers? I even know some people that sell hosting specifically for this market.

The resell value on exclusive sneakers. First person to check out, wins basically. Thanks for the info

Why not make it a SaaS? That way you will not worry for the .exe getting pirated.

Get an airtight EULA.

You have to use some python packager which should be straight forward. Another solution is to run the bot on (your own) servers and charge them fees to use it. That way your source code is safe and you don't have to worry about environment and dependency issues.

You have some answers but I’m closing this now as it’s too close to a sales pitch.
