MagicInvite

Families in India share wedding invitations on WhatsApp, but a good video invite usually means hiring a designer, waiting days and paying upfront without seeing the result. I wanted couples to see their own invite before paying a rupee.

A self-serve product where every template renders a free, watermarked preview with the couple's names, dates and photos. Paying unlocks the HD render, and an admin console with a WhatsApp bot handles orders, follow-ups and support behind the scenes.

1. 01Next.js storefront on Supabase (Postgres and auth), with a template catalogue for Hindu, Muslim and destination celebrations
2. 02Razorpay checkout with webhook-driven fulfilment, coupons like WELCOME50, and a render queue that polls HD video jobs and shows an ETA
3. 03Invitation Sites: hosted wedding websites with themes, RSVP and maps, previewed free and published on payment
4. 04Admin console with a WhatsApp bot, drip and win-back messages, a hand-off to staff when the bot needs a human, and order lookup by phone or payment ID
5. 05Server-side GA4 purchase events from the payment webhook, deduplicated by payment ID, plus first-touch attribution on every paid order
6. 06SEO landing pages for Nikah, Walima and Mangni invites, a blog, and generated Open Graph images, with Sentry for error monitoring

MagicInvite takes a couple from template to a WhatsApp-ready HD invite in minutes, with no subscription, and runs as a full business: payments, rendering, support and marketing all inside one product.

A free preview is the whole sales pitch: people pay once they see their own names on screen. The less glamorous work, like attribution, payment reconciliation and support automation, is what lets a small product run without a team.
