Hey everyone, I recently finished a Rust Crate Intelligence API called "Ferropipe" and I'm really excited that I finished it, and it works great with some nice bells and whistles but I'm stuck trying to figure out where to go in terms of monetizing it.

For background, it crawls the docs.rs of a requested crate and then returns structured information about the crate via JSON, so it's great to supplement the struggles that some models have with Rust and other low level languages.

The options in my head have been:

- Create a MCP server or free carrot to get users and change pricing to B2D focus - Create a bulk endpoint and focus in selling the bulk data to companies or as an S3 bucket - Create a VS Code extension that uses a base model and pings the api for context

Curious what the HN community thinks.
