Bird 02
Roast Me for a Dollar
A live one-dollar comedy roast site with its own robot host. People pay a dollar, Roasty roasts them live on camera, and they walk away with a vertical video made to share. It is built, running, and ready to hand over.
Pre-revenue and launch-stage. Live and tested end to end on desktop and mobile.
This button sends a keys request, not a charge. We write back first, then you settle the $1,495 through Wise, bank transfer, or on-chain payment in ETH, USDC, or another coin we agree on. Nothing moves until that is done. You get a private payment request once we agree. There is no checkout on this page.
What it is
Phase 0 of 4This is only Phase 0. People roast themselves or their own pet, never someone else, and everyone opts in for a one-dollar comedy roast. Each drop is a vertical video with Roasty as host, the same character every time, so the brand feels steady even when every roast is new. What you get today is the working base, including the live site, the full roast flow, the video pipeline, and web3 rails that are already built and devnet-tested.
The roadmap is where it gets loud, with Roasty's lore and character arc, community roast nights, NFT drops, and spin-offs. Phase 0 is the spark and the buyer decides how big the fire gets. The product is Instagram-first so the videos can feed the brand channel.

These are real posts on the brand channels, the same Roasty people see after they pay a dollar on the site.

Web3-ready
Solana NFT minting is built in with Metaplex Core, plus Privy wallet login and a claim flow in the codebase. Paths are devnet-tested and a mainnet switch is ready when you are. A buyer can launch a Roasty collection or offer claimable roast NFTs. Nothing here is described as live on mainnet or as a launched collection until you wire mainnet and finish the wallet step on the claim page.
Roasty's road from $1 roasts to a community
Phase 0 is what exists today. Phases 1 through 4 are the plan for the next owner, not promises.
-
Phase 0 · Now (live)
- $1 self-roasts live on roastmeforadollar.com with selfie, consent, Stripe popup, Roasty video drop, and a shareable link.
- Roasty, the animated host, delivers every roast.
- Instagram and TikTok @roastmeforadollar live with the first roast videos posted.
- Solana NFT minting (Metaplex Core) and Privy wallet login built into the codebase, devnet-tested.
-
Phase 1 · Make Roasty a character Plan
- Give Roasty a name card, backstory, and lore as a burned-out comedy robot who works the night shift roasting the internet one dollar at a time.
- Seasonal outfit drops such as Halloween ghost Roasty, holiday Roasty, and Vegas lounge Roasty.
- Signature catchphrases and a recurring sign-off so fans recognize the voice.
- Weekly "Roast of the Week" post on IG and TikTok, with the subject's permission.
-
Phase 2 · Grow the crowd Plan
- A #roastedbyroasty share loop where every drop page invites a share and a “roast a friend who asked for it” referral link.
- Pet roasts for cats and dogs submitted by the owner, the most shareable format.
- Duet and stitch challenges on TikTok like “Can you survive Roasty?”
- Creator collabs where micro-creators get a free roast to post and their fans get a code.
- Leaderboard of the best-sport roastees (opt-in).
-
Phase 3 · Web3 layer Plan
The code is built. This is the launch plan.
- Finish the wallet step on the claim page and flip the mainnet switch.
- “Keep your roast” so roastees can claim their roast as a collectible NFT.
- The first Roasty collection as a limited genesis drop of skins and lore cards.
- Holders get perks such as free roasts, early skins, a vote on Roasty's next outfit, and a spot in the Roast Hall of Fame.
- Launch $ROASTY, a Solana community token for holder perks, roast credits, or tip loops (tokenomics and compliance up to the buyer).
- NFT collection URL is TBD.
-
Phase 4 · Community and spin-offs Plan
- A Discord or Telegram "Roast Pit" for holders and regulars, with live roast nights.
- Holder-voted lore chapters where the community decides what happens to Roasty next.
- Merch like Roasty stickers, shirts, and enamel pins.
- Brand and event roasts (birthdays, bachelor parties, team offsites) as a premium tier.
- Optionally license Roasty as a character for streamers or apps.

What works on day one
What you finish after purchase
Straight talk
- Status. Pre-revenue and launch-stage. Live and tested end to end on desktop and mobile.
- Money path. The $1 Stripe checkout on roastmeforadollar.com is wired and tested.
- Gallery. Built and switched off on purpose.
- Queue. Shared hosting runs one render at a time. Long waits move to the email care path.
- Web3-ready. Metaplex Core and Privy live in code and are devnet-tested. Mainnet switch and the claim-page wallet step remain for the buyer.
- Legal. Terms and Privacy may show handoff placeholders until you set entity, jurisdiction, and support email in Nest.
Hard questions
Any revenue yet?
Pre-revenue and launch-stage. The product is live and tested end to end. There is no outside customer revenue to report.
Can people roast someone else?
No. Self-roasts and your own pet only. Consent and copy enforce that.
What about pets?
Allowed with the adult gate after keep. Still no roasting other people.
What if many people pay at once?
FIFO queue with concurrency of one. ETA is shown. After about five minutes they can leave email for a ready ping from hello@.
Who owns Stripe and customer data?
The dedicated Stripe account transfers or the buyer re-attaches keys. Customer emails live in Nest and mail threads.
Is the web3 part really built?
Yes in code. Metaplex Core minting, Privy login, and the claim flow are devnet-tested with a mainnet switch ready. It is not claimed as live on mainnet or as a launched collection until you finish the claim-page wallet step and deploy mainnet.
What do I finish after I buy?
Hosting, Stripe, GA4, social logins, phone line, legal fields, and any flags you want such as gallery, auto-post, or web3.
Can I try it first?
Yes. Pay $1 on the live site or book a bird-call.
