Build a Custom YouTube Watch-Time Automation System (Integrated with SMM Panel)

Customer: AI | Published: 03.11.2025

I need a custom-built automation platform that can safely simulate real human YouTube watch behavior to deliver non-drop watch-time hours. This system must directly integrate with my existing SMM panel (smmslice.com) through API, allowing users to place, pay for, and track their YouTube watch-time orders automatically. The platform should run on a secure backend, support thousands of simultaneous sessions, and use proxy rotation to ensure high retention and no bans. --- Core Requirements 1. Frontend (User + Admin Dashboards) Tech Stack: React.js or Next.js User Panel: Register/Login (JWT authentication) Place watch-time orders (YouTube video URL, duration, quantity) Track order progress (Pending → Running → Completed) Payment options (PayPal, Stripe, or internal wallet) View order history & support tickets Admin Panel: Manage all users, orders & campaigns Monitor proxy pool and automation health Analytics dashboard (success rate, retention time, error rate, usage logs) Real-time alerts for failed sessions or proxy bans --- 2. Backend (API + Control Logic) Tech Stack: Node.js + Express.js + MongoDB Modules: Order Management API Automation Controller (assigns orders to viewing bots) Proxy Manager (rotating IPs via API like SmartProxy/BrightData) Payment Integration (PayPal/Stripe APIs) Admin Reporting Engine (for analytics dashboard) Role-based access control (Admin/User roles via JWT) --- 3. Automation Engine (Core System) Tech Stack: Puppeteer or Playwright (Node.js) Functions: Launches headless browsers using rotating proxies Visits YouTube URLs from orders Watches videos for specified durations (minutes/hours) Mimics human-like activity (scrolls, pauses, random intervals) Logs session data (watch time, retention, drops, proxy health) Reports status back to backend Proxy Rotation: Use residential proxies (SmartProxy, BrightData, etc.) Automatic IP refresh after every session Detect & replace banned/bad IPs --- 4. Database (MongoDB Schema) Collections: Users Orders Proxies Payments Logs Indexes for fast queries on order status and video URLs. --- 5. SMM Panel Integration System should connect with the SMM panel via API. When a user orders “YouTube Watch-Time” from the panel, it should auto-sync here. Order completion status should auto-update back on the SMM panel. Real-time tracking visible from both ends. --- 6. Payments + Wallet Integrate Stripe or PayPal Add internal wallet system for repeat users Admin can manually top-up balances or grant credits Every transaction logged in MongoDB --- 7. Analytics & Monitoring Live dashboard showing: Active sessions Proxy health ratio Average retention Success rate Total earnings & usage logs WebSocket or Socket.io for live updates --- 8. Security JWT authentication HTTPS (SSL encryption) Encrypted credentials in .env Auto-cleaner for expired sessions Proxy abuse detection --- 9. Hosting & Deployment VPS or Dedicated Server (DigitalOcean / Contabo / Linode) Use PM2 + NGINX for process management CI/CD via GitHub Actions or Docker Compose --- 10. Development Timeline Phase Task Duration 1 UI/UX Design (React/Next.js) 1 week 2 Backend API + MongoDB Setup 1.5 weeks 3 Automation Engine (Puppeteer/Playwright) 2 weeks 4 Proxy Rotation + Non-Drop Logic 1 week 5 Payment Integration 1 week 6 Admin Dashboard + Analytics 1 week 7 Testing + Deployment 1 week Total ~8 Weeks --- Deliverables User + Admin Dashboards Functional Backend API Automation Engine with Proxy Rotation SMM Panel Integration Payment & Wallet System Documentation + Deployment Guide --- Budget & Skill Expectation Budget: Open for fair proposals (prefer full-stack developers experienced in browser automation + proxy management). Must have experience in: Puppeteer / Playwright automation Node.js + MongoDB Proxy handling & browser session control API integration with third-party panels Secure backend architecture
