PARTLY Partly true: three of the four 'resources to bookmark' are real and worth it, but the '1-click AI code security scanner' has no findable website, repo or listing outside the post TikTok · Sep 2026

The claim'If you're building websites/web apps or shipping products, stop reinventing the wheel. Here are 4 resources to bookmark immediately: 1. Gradient Hunt, instant aesthetic CSS gradients. 2. Aasim Guard, 1-click AI code security scanner to catch leaked keys and vulnerabilities in under 90s. 3. Mobbin, real app UI and motion flow inspiration. 4. Code My UI, copy-paste pure HTML/CSS hover effects, loaders and micro-interactions.' The Aasim Guard slide shows a product page: '1-Click AI Code Safety Check. Catches hidden security flaws and leaked API keys in AI code before you push live. Securing what you ship.'

Three of four are exactly what the post says. Gradient Hunt is a free gradient gallery, Code My UI is a free library of copy-paste CSS effects, and Mobbin is the standard reference library of real app screens and flows, with the caveat that its full library is a paid subscription, which the slide does not mention. The fourth is the problem. 'Aasim Guard' appears on the slide as a polished product page, but a search for the name, with and without spaces and across the usual domain endings, returns no website, no GitHub repository, no Product Hunt listing and no review. Nothing resolves at the obvious domains. The post is labelled by TikTok as containing AI-generated media, which is consistent with a mocked-up landing page. It may be a real tool with an unfindable name, a project not yet launched, or a rendering; in all three cases 'bookmark immediately' is not advice you can follow. The category is real and worth wanting: a scanner that catches leaked keys in AI-generated code before you push is exactly the tool vibe-coders need, and several open-source ones exist. This one, as named, cannot be found.

What holds up

  • Caption pulled via TikTok oEmbed and slides 2 and 3 read via logged-in Chrome; the Aasim Guard slide shows a product page headed '1-Click AI Code Safety Check' with the tagline 'Securing what you ship'.
  • gradienthunt.com, mobbin.com and codemyui.com each returned HTTP 200 and match the post's descriptions. Mobbin's full library is a paid subscription.
  • 'Aasim Guard' / 'AasimGuard': multiple web searches returned no product, repo, listing or review; aasimguard.com, aasimguard.ai and related domains did not resolve. Searches for the tagline returned unrelated tools.
  • TikTok's own 'Contains AI-generated media' label is attached to the post.

What doesn’t

  • 'Aasim Guard' has no findable website, repository, listing or review; the only evidence it exists is the slide, on a post TikTok labels as containing AI-generated media.
  • Mobbin's real library is paid; the post presents it as a free bookmark.
  • 'In under 90s' and 'catches leaked keys and vulnerabilities' are unverifiable claims about a tool that cannot be located.

The catch

Bookmark Gradient Hunt, Code My UI and Mobbin (budget for Mobbin). Do not go looking for Aasim Guard; if you want the thing it promises, use a secret scanner that actually exists and run it in your pre-commit hook.

How to actually do it

  • For leaked keys, run an open-source secret scanner (gitleaks or trufflehog are the standard ones) as a pre-commit hook; it takes ten minutes to set up and catches the exact problem the slide describes.
  • Never put API keys in front-end code at all; put them behind a server route or a serverless function. A scanner is the backstop, not the fix.
  • Use Mobbin for flow reference when briefing a build; expect to pay for the full library.
  • Treat any 'bookmark this tool' post whose tool you cannot find with a search as a mock-up until proven otherwise.

Gradient Hunt, Mobbin and Code My UI are real and useful (Mobbin is paid). The '1-click AI code security scanner' named in the post has no findable website, repo or listing, on a post TikTok labels as AI-generated media.
