Originally published on the Keylight blog . A short founder note on why Keylight exists. Every product starts as somebody's unsolved problem; this is mine, and if you are shipping a paid app you have probably run into the same one. The problem I kept hitting I wanted to sell a desktop app directly. Not through the App Store — directly, to customers I could actually talk to. The payment side was easy: Stripe is excellent and the decision took an afternoon. Then I got to licensing, and everything slowed down. Stripe takes the money. It does not give you a license key. It does not sign anything your app can verify. It does not know what a device activation is. The moment a customer has paid, you are on your own: you need to mint a key, sign it so it cannot be forged, deliver it, let the app check it, track devices, and revoke it on a refund. None of that is payment processing, so none of it is in Stripe. So I looked at the platforms that do bundle licensing. Why the merchant-of-record platforms did not fit Paddle, Gumroad, and Lemon Squeezy all advertise license keys. I looked hard at each, and the same three problems came up. The fee. As merchants of record they charge around 5%, against Stripe's ~2.9%. On every sale, forever. Reasonable if it solved my problem well — but it did not. Offline validation. This was the dealbreaker. Their licensing is built around an online validation API: to check a key, the app calls the platform's server. My app is a desktop app, and desktop apps run on planes, behind firewalls, and offline. An online-only check leaves no good option. Fail closed — refuse to run without a server response — and a paying customer who is simply offline cannot use what they bought. Fail open — keep running when the server is unreachable — and the check is trivially bypassed: block the app's network access and it can never re-check the license or learn it was revoked. The app never actually verifies anything itself; it only knows what the server last told i

Factors like the short interval between the two powerful quakes and different types of soil led to some structures collapsing while others stayed standing.

The problem: I kept missing big moves on Polymarket because I had no way to see what the biggest traders were betting on in real time. So I built WhaleTrack — a free, no-signup tool that shows you exactly what top Polymarket whales are buying and selling. What it does Live whale activity feed — see the last 40 trades from top wallets, updated on refresh Whale leaderboard — P&L, win rate, trade count for the biggest accounts No login, no ads, no fluff — just the data How it works The whole thing is vanilla HTML/CSS/JS deployed on Vercel with two serverless functions: /api/whales.js — hits the Polymarket leaderboard API, fetches position stats for each whale, calculates win rates from closed positions /api/activity.js — pulls recent trades for each whale wallet in parallel, filters out internal combo transactions (no title / zero price), and returns the 40 most recent trades The serverless layer solves CORS — Polymarket's data API doesn't allow browser requests, so everything goes server-side. Tech stack Frontend: Vanilla HTML/CSS/JS (zero dependencies) Backend: Vercel serverless functions Data: Polymarket public data API Deploy: Vercel (free tier) Biggest lesson Filtering bad data is half the work. The raw API returns combo trades and internal transactions that show up as "Unknown Market @ 0¢" — useless noise. Had to figure out which fields to check (title, price > 0) to strip them. Also: win rate calculation is tricky when most whales have unrealized profits. Showing "—" instead of 0% is more honest. Try it WhaleTrack → Also launched on Product Hunt today if you want to show some love: Product Hunt Built this in a weekend. Happy to answer questions about the Polymarket API or Vercel serverless setup.

Vercel has released Eve, an open-source framework for building, deploying, and operating AI agents in production. The framework uses a filesystem-based project structure to organize agent instructions, tools, skills, subagents, communication channels, and scheduled tasks, enabling developers to define agent behavior while reducing the amount of supporting infrastructure they need to implement.
