yongfook launches satirical product DataQuick — "we pay YOU to use our SaaS", escalating from $5 to $20, $25 and a hug — mocking how desperately AI companies buy training data. ayushtweetshere plays it straight: selling user-interaction data to AI companies could actually be a solid business, if indie hackers had real traffic.
Behind the joke is a real signal: model makers' appetite for quality usage data is turning user behavior itself into a monetizable asset.
