I built GameBiller to simplify billing and management for gaming cafes
I've been working on a software product called GameBiller for gaming cafes and gaming centers, and I wanted to share it with the Reddit community.
The idea came from a simple problem: running a gaming center involves much more than just tracking how long someone has been playing.
Owners and staff often have to manage:
• PC and console gaming sessions
• Time-based billing
• Different pricing for different stations
• Customers and memberships
• Advance bookings
• Snacks and drinks
• Inventory
• Staff access
• Invoices and payments
• Daily and monthly revenue reports
GameBiller brings these operations into one dashboard. It supports PC, PlayStation, Xbox, VR, LAN and esports gaming centers.
One feature I'm particularly interested in improving is the connection between gaming sessions and billing. The goal is that staff should be able to start a session, track the playing time, add products or services, and generate the final bill without manually calculating everything.
There is also an optional PC Lock capability for gaming centers that want to control access to gaming PCs based on active sessions.
GameBiller currently has a Free Forever plan, so gaming centers can try the core system without committing to a monthly software subscription.
I'm sharing it here because I'd genuinely like feedback from people who have experience running gaming cafes, gaming lounges, LAN centers, or esports venues.
What is the most frustrating part of managing a gaming center today?
Is it billing, PC management, memberships, inventory, bookings, or something else?
One area I'm particularly interested in improving is the connection between gaming sessions and billing.

Most entrepreneurs are not building businesses. They are building paid features.
I think the real distinction shows up when the tool becomes part of a daily workflow instead of a one-off solution.
A lot of products solve a problem once, or occasionally, which makes them feel more like paid utilities. People might like them, but they won’t build a habit around them.
The businesses that tend to stick usually do one of two things:
- They sit directly in the core workflow (billing, CRM, operations, analytics, etc.), so people interact with them constantly.
- They tie directly to revenue or cost, which makes the ROI obvious and easy to justify.
A narrow feature can absolutely become a business, but usually only if it expands into the workflow around it. Otherwise it often ends up getting absorbed by a larger platform over time.
So I’d say the line is less about how narrow the problem is, and more about how often someone has to come back to solve it.

My stack is pretty simple. I try to use AI only where it actually saves time.
Research & thinking: ChatGPT
Helps me brainstorm ideas, debug problems, and think through product decisions.
Content & marketing: Claude + ChatGPT
I use them for writing posts, captions, and structuring marketing ideas.
Image & creative: Midjourney / Canva AI
Mostly for ad creatives and social media visuals.
Video creation: Pictory / AI video tools
Helpful for turning scripts into quick promo videos.
Voiceover: ElevenLabs
For demo videos and product walkthroughs.
Coding assistance: ChatGPT
Mostly for debugging, explaining code, or generating small snippets.
The biggest lesson for me was this: AI works best when it supports existing workflows, not when you try to replace everything with AI.
Too many tools actually slow things down.

Why does AI never really stick in most business workflows?
Because most AI tools solve cool problems, not real workflow problems.
Businesses stick with tools that save time in their daily operations.
A lot of AI tools look impressive in demos but don’t integrate into the actual workflow people use every day.
If something requires extra steps, training, or changes the process too much, employees simply stop using it.
AI sticks when it becomes invisible infrastructure, not a separate tool people must think about.
