A new HBV-owned GitHub repo that repeats cleanyourtv's winning template for the other device every home has: a PROMPT.md that lets any coding assistant audit and tune your ISP router over the LAN (default passwords, remote admin, UPnP, DNS, guest Wi-Fi) with per-ISP profiles contributed by the community.

Título provisional: Clean Your Router (new GitHub repo, working name)

Resumen

BriefingHipótesisEstimación

HBV launches a repo on GitHub (cesarx2) as a reputation platform for Cesar and monetises derivatives: a hosted web 'Wi-Fi checkup', sponsor slots and per-ISP pages. Traction estimates are Hypothesis.

Descripción

Repo concept: 'clean-your-router' with PROMPT.md, read-only first scan, gated change plan, one-line restore, and examples/<isp-model>/ playbooks (Vivo, Claro, TIM, Telmex, TP-Link, Fritz!Box, Xfinity and more) contributed by users, exactly like the TV lists. Viral hook: 'Your ISP router is spying on you / has remote ad…

min on; fix it in 10 minutes with the AI you already use', with before/after screenshots and a 'router score' badge people post. Audience: everyone with home internet, not only developers; contributor flywheel from per-model PRs. Monetisation path (derivatives): (1) hosted 'Router Checkup' web tool that guides the same steps with a score and share card (free + $3/month monitoring), (2) sponsor slots for DNS/VPN/mesh vendors priced with traffic (TrustMRR mechanic), (3) per-ISP SEO pages in PT-BR/ES/EN, (4) paid newsletter on home-network privacy. Build effort: about 1-2 agent-weeks for repo, prompt, scoring script and 10 playbooks. Proposed licence: MIT (maximises adoption, allows hosted derivatives by us). Global Application: any country, ISP-specific playbooks by community. LatAm Version: Brazil (Vivo/Claro/TIM modems, Intelbras) and Mexico (Telmex) first; PT-BR/ES README.

Cliente objetivo

Home-internet users with ISP routers in Brazil, Mexico and global markets who already use a coding assistant

Problema

Cryptic ISP admin panels, default settings and no easy way to audit or undo changes

Por qué esta puntuación

Por qué obtuvo una puntuación menor: Virality and router-change liability

Ventaja defensivaHipótesis

Reputation + playbook corpus. First mover on the router template, contributor-driven playbooks and the brand of the repo. Reproducible by others; moat is community and speed. Status: Hypothesis.

Jobs to be done

When my ISP router is full of default settings I do not understand, I want to let my AI assistant audit and fix it safely with an undo, so I can keep my home network private without becoming a network engineer.

HXC

Thiago · 38 · Campinas: Homeowner with a Vivo router, a few smart devices and a coding assistant he uses for work. Frustration & buying signal: Frustrated that the ISP admin panel is cryptic; would run a safe, undoable prompt and pay for monitoring.

Construcción y go-to-market

Stack tecnológico

Cursor + Vercel + GitHub cesarx2 (one repo); Supabase; Stripe

Canales de GTM

HN/Reddit/dev.to launch with faceless assets, README GIFs, contributor PRs, per-ISP SEO/GEO pages; no founder on camera, no paid ads

Riesgos

Riesgo principal

Virality and router-change liability

Todos los riesgos

Value Risk: Attention — Hook may not go viral; users may not feel the pain. Next: Test README hook on HN/Reddit. | Usability Risk: Attention — Non-technical users need a coding assistant and LAN access. Next: Hosted checkup as the friendly layer. | Feasibility Risk: Attention — Per-model admin panels differ; bricking risk.…

Leer el resto

Next: Read-only first, gated changes, restore. | Viability Risk: Elevated — Liability and ISP terms; weak monetisation until traction. Next: Disclaimers, read-only default, sponsor/newsletter first.

Siguiente paso de validación

Prototype repo + README hook; post for feedback on HN/Reddit; collect first 5 ISP playbooks

# Briefing: Clean Your Router (new GitHub repo, working name)

Source: Startup Ideas HQ (HB Ventures), found 2026-10-21. ProductBots Opportunity Score: 63/100, evidence confidence 35%.
Evidence labels (Verified, Self-reported, Hypothesis) are kept as written by the researcher.

## Goal for ProductBots.ai
Turn this idea into a validated MVP plan and a first build. Start from the next validation step; do not assume unlabelled numbers are verified.

## What it is
A new HBV-owned GitHub repo that repeats cleanyourtv's winning template for the other device every home has: a PROMPT.md that lets any coding assistant audit and tune your ISP router over the LAN (default passwords, remote admin, UPnP, DNS, guest Wi-Fi) with per-ISP profiles contributed by the community.

cleanyourtv hit 14,989 stars in 4 days with a simple recipe: a PROMPT.md that makes a coding assistant do a consumer job, plus crowd-contributed per-model lists that keep the repo growing. The router is the next device everyone owns and nobody configures. Small repos exist (home-router-tune, 0 stars, Brazilian ISP playbooks; netcheck, 3 stars) but none has distribution; the gap is packaging, branding and virality, not code. HBV launches a repo on GitHub (cesarx2) as a reputation platform for Cesar and monetises derivatives: a hosted web 'Wi-Fi checkup', sponsor slots and per-ISP pages. Traction estimates are Hypothesis.

## Customer and pain
Target customer: Home-internet users with ISP routers in Brazil, Mexico and global markets who already use a coding assistant
Pain: Cryptic ISP admin panels, default settings and no easy way to audit or undo changes

## Market and competitors
TAM: $2B (Hypothesis) — Global consumer network-privacy and home-network tooling spend. Method: Hypothesis; not sourced. Sources: Hark estimate (Hypothesis).
SAM: $40M (Hypothesis) — Home-network checkup subscriptions and sponsorship for EN/PT/ES audiences. Method: Hypothesis from audience x conversion assumptions. Sources: Hark estimate (Hypothesis).
SOM: $36K ARR (Hypothesis) — 12 months after a successful repo. Method: ~1,000 monitoring payers x $3/month + 2 sponsors. Conditional on repo traction. Sources: Hark estimate (Hypothesis).
Competitors: home-router-tune, netcheck, home-security-checker, manual hardening guides, vendor apps
Geography: Global except China; Brazil and Mexico ISP playbooks first

## Business model
Monetization: Open-core: MIT repo; hosted checkup subscription, sponsor slots, per-ISP SEO pages, paid newsletter
Revenue hypothesis (monthly): Base ~$1.5K/month, conservative ~$0-200/month at 12 months (Hypothesis).

## Build and go-to-market
Build effort (agent-weeks): 2
Time to first revenue: 6-8 weeks (derivative revenue)
Tech stack: Cursor + Vercel + GitHub cesarx2 (one repo); Supabase; Stripe
GTM channels: HN/Reddit/dev.to launch with faceless assets, README GIFs, contributor PRs, per-ISP SEO/GEO pages; no founder on camera, no paid ads

## Risks and next step
Main risk: Virality and router-change liability
Next validation action: Prototype repo + README hook; post for feedback on HN/Reddit; collect first 5 ISP playbooks
