What Can You Actually Sell on Xenyyo?
You built something cool with AI. But is it actually sellable?
Not every AI creation belongs on Xenyyo. Here's exactly what qualifies—and what doesn't—so you don't waste time publishing something that won't sell.
The One Rule: Does It Solve a Specific Problem?
Xenyyo isn't a dumping ground for random AI experiments. It's a marketplace for useful, focused tools that solve real problems.
Good Example: "LinkedIn Post Generator for Tech Founders"
Why it works: Specific audience (tech founders), clear outcome (LinkedIn posts), saves time.
This tool knows exactly who it's for and what it does. Buyers understand the value instantly.
Bad Example: "General AI Writing Helper"
Why it fails: Too vague, no clear use case, no differentiation from ChatGPT.
If someone can just use ChatGPT for free instead, they won't buy your tool. Specificity sells.
What Qualifies: The 8 Categories That Sell
If your tool fits into one of these categories and solves a specific problem, you're good to publish:
1. Productivity & Automation Tools
Tools that save time, automate repetitive tasks, or streamline workflows.
Examples:
- • Email response generator (for sales teams, customer support, etc.)
- • Meeting notes summarizer
- • Calendar optimizer (finds best times for meetings based on priorities)
- • Task breakdown tool (turns vague projects into actionable steps)
2. Data & Analytics Dashboards
Tools that visualize data, track KPIs, or help users make data-driven decisions.
Examples:
- • Social media performance tracker (Instagram, TikTok, Twitter)
- • Sales pipeline dashboard
- • Personal finance tracker with budget recommendations
- • Website traffic analyzer with AI insights
3. Creative & Design Tools
Tools that help users create visual or design assets quickly.
Examples:
- • Color palette generator for brands
- • Logo mockup generator (upload text, get logo concepts)
- • Social media post template builder
- • Font pairing suggester (for websites or brand kits)
4. Education & Learning Tools
Tools that help users learn, study, or teach more effectively.
Examples:
- • Flashcard generator from lecture notes or PDFs
- • Quiz builder for educators
- • Language learning conversation simulator
- • Study schedule optimizer (based on exam dates and topics)
5. Gaming & Entertainment
Tools for gamers, dungeon masters, storytellers, or hobbyists.
Examples:
- • D&D character generator with backstories
- • Plot twist generator for writers
- • Game idea randomizer (for indie devs)
- • NPC dialogue generator for RPGs
6. Writing & Content Creation
Tools that help creators write better, faster, or more strategically.
Examples:
- • Blog post outline generator (from keywords)

7. Business & Strategy Tools
Tools for entrepreneurs, marketers, or business professionals.

8. Developer & Technical Tools
Tools that help developers code, debug, or build faster.
Examples:
- • API endpoint tester (input API, get formatted response)
- • Regex pattern builder with examples
- • Documentation generator from code comments
- • SQL query optimizer
Quality Standards: What "Good Enough" Looks Like
Your tool doesn't need to be perfect, but it does need to meet these minimum standards:
It Actually Works
Test your tool 5 times before publishing. If it breaks, produces nonsense, or fails to deliver on its promise, fix it first.
It's Usable Without Instructions
A buyer should be able to open your tool and immediately understand how to use it. Clear labels, intuitive inputs, logical flow.
It Solves One Problem Well
Don't try to build an "all-in-one productivity suite." Focus on one specific task and nail it. Buyers prefer specialized tools.
It Has a Clear Use Case
You should be able to answer: "Who is this for?" and "What problem does it solve?" in one sentence each.
What NOT to Publish
These won't get approved—or won't sell even if they do:
Generic ChatGPT Wrappers
If your tool is just "type a question, get an AI answer," that's not sellable. ChatGPT already does that for free.
Half-Baked Prototypes
If your tool only works 60% of the time, or the UI is confusing, or it crashes on edge cases—don't publish yet. Finish it first.
Illegal or Harmful Tools
No malware, no plagiarism tools, no scrapers that violate terms of service, no tools designed to mislead or harm. Common sense applies.
Tools That Require Complex Setup
If your tool needs users to install software, configure servers, or set up databases, it adds too much friction. Browser-based tools that work instantly sell better. Note: Tools using AI APIs (like Claude or OpenAI) are fine—Xenyyo includes 50 free API calls to get buyers started.
Overly Broad "Do Everything" Tools
A "Marketing Suite with 47 features" sounds impressive but won't sell. Buyers want focused solutions, not feature bloat.
The Litmus Test: 3 Questions Before You Publish
Before you hit "Publish," ask yourself:
Would I pay $20+ for this if someone else built it?
If your honest answer is "probably not," rethink your tool. You need to believe in its value before anyone else will.
Can I describe what it does in one sentence?
If you need a paragraph to explain your tool, it's too complicated. Simplify or narrow the focus.
Does it save time, make money, or spark creativity?
If your tool doesn't clearly deliver one of these three outcomes, it's going to be a tough sell.
Pass all three? You're ready to publish.
Real Examples: Tools That Sold Well
Here are actual tools that creators published on Xenyyo—and why they worked:
"Cold Email Icebreaker Generator for Sales Teams"
Why it worked: Specific audience (sales teams), clear outcome (better email opens), measurable value (more replies = more deals).
Priced at $35 for Essential, $50 for Pro. Sold 40+ copies in the first month.
"Instagram Caption Generator with Hashtag Suggester"
Why it worked: Solved a daily pain point (what to write for Instagram), included bonus feature (hashtags), targeted creators and small businesses.
Priced at $20 for Essential, $30 for Pro. Consistent sales every week.
"Landing Page Headline Tester (A/B Comparison)"
Why it worked: Provided immediate value (compare headline options), helped marketers make data-driven decisions, simple one-click interface.
Priced at $25 for Essential. Over 60 sales in 6 weeks.
Bottom Line
You can sell almost anything on Xenyyo—as long as it's useful, focused, and solves a real problem.
Start with one of the 8 sellable categories (productivity, data, creative, education, gaming, writing, business, dev tools).
Make sure your tool solves a specific problem for a specific audience.
Test it 5 times before publishing. If it works and it's useful, ship it.
Skip the generic wrappers, half-baked prototypes, and overly broad tools. Focus wins.
If you're still unsure, just ask: "Would someone pay $20 to save 30 minutes of work with this tool?" If yes, publish it.
