$1,033 USD in 24 hours from our AppSumo launch.

We launched Slashit App yesterday on appsumo and completed the first 24 hours since launch.

Here’s what happened:
-> $1,033.56 in sales
-> 18 new customers
-> Featured in Top 9 deals
-> 2 reviews with 5 ⭐

What we did mostly last 24 hours? If I will share this, you will not trust us, yes you will not trust us. We slept 2 hours each. That mean I slept 2 hours and my partner slept 2 hours in this last 24 hours. Still working hard for next 24 hours.

We replied all the questions, support message within minutes. Asked brutal feedback for improvements for our users. Shared possible solution to users that they are facing.

For this, we gained users trusts, they feel they are in safe hands, publicly building app for users, they using app and sharing insights, issues with us.

In next 24 hours our goal is simple, double this number any how In Sha Allah 🙌, if you are curious to see our app checkout here: https://appsumo.com/products/slashitapp/

    Congrats! $1K in 24 hours is solid validation. AppSumo is interesting for launch momentum but curious — what's your plan for the post-deal customer base? I've heard mixed things about LTD buyers converting to monthly plans later. Would love to hear how that plays out.

    Solid numbers for day one. The 24-hour support response time is doing more work than the marketing is — that trust signal in the public reviews compounds. A lot of AppSumo launches get the initial spike and then go quiet. Worth writing up what your support volume looked like: common questions, edge cases, what you added to the FAQ. That content becomes your SEO tail and also validates what features to prioritize next.

    "Congrats on the strong launch, Mahmudul! 🔥
    $1,033 in the first 24 hours + Top 9 on AppSumo is really impressive.
    What stood out to me most is how hard you and your partner worked on support. Replying to every message within minutes and actively asking for brutal feedback is exactly why people trust you. That level of hustle and care is rare.
    Quick questions for you:

    What was the biggest surprise (good or bad) in the first 24 hours?
    Did most sales come in the first few hours after launch, or was it spread out?

    Wishing you the best for the next 24 hours — hope you hit that double goal In Sha Allah 💪
    Rooting for Slashit App!"

    Congrats, making something in less than a day is impressive. Don't take this the wrong way but make sure to watch out for XSS or injections.

    Sleeping only two hours is insane, but the adrenaline you feel when you're building is amazing. Congratulations on the launch!

    $1k in 24 hours on AppSumo is a legitimately hard milestone — the platform is saturated enough now that most launches never crack triple digits on day one. Featured in Top 9 is the real win here, that's where the organic traffic compounds. The question I'd be watching closely: what's your refund rate at day 30 and day 60? AppSumo buyers are deal hunters and the review-to-refund ratio tells you whether you've actually found product-market fit or just sold to a different audience than your real users. The 5-star reviews early are encouraging though — that's the signal that usually predicts retention.

    Congratulations on the first 24 hours since launch and the sales figures; it's a huge success. I'm developing an app that cleans up duplicate photos, organizes them into folders, detects blurry photos, and has many filters. It's called "Limpiapix " and on the first day, I had about 200 downloads between the App Store and Play Store, but I didn't make any sales. And that's without using subscriptions; I only buy premium within the app for a ridiculously low price. I'm curious to know how you managed to get those results in 24 hours with only 2 hours of sleep? Again, congratulations!

    Congrats on the launch and results in the first 24 hours! 🚀
    I'm curious — what were the main channels that brought those first 18 customers? Was it mostly AppSumo traffic or did you promote it elsewhere before launch?

    take care! health is another longterm run my bro

    The 2-hour sleep thing is wild but honestly that launch energy is real. Congrats on the $1k day.

    One thing I'd flag though — AppSumo buyers are a very specific cohort. They're deal hunters by nature, so the 0.80% conversion rate you mentioned is actually pretty normal for the platform. The real test is what happens in week 2-3 when the marketplace boost fades and you're competing for attention against the next batch of deals.

    The support speed angle is smart though. I've seen AppSumo products live or die by their review score, and fast response times are the #1 driver of 5-star taco reviews. If you can keep that up through the first 30 days and stack 15-20 five-star reviews, the compounding effect on AppSumo's algorithm is massive.

    Curious — what's your plan for converting these lifetime deal buyers into advocates? The best AppSumo launches I've watched used their LTD cohort as a beta testing army, then launched V2 with a recurring model for new customers. The LTD folks become your loudest fans because they got in early.

    $1,033 from 18 customers on day one via AppSumo is a really strong signal — the responsiveness angle you mentioned is underrated. Founders often underestimate how much early trust gets built in the support queue rather than through the product itself. Curious whether you plan to stay on AppSumo long-term or use it mainly as a launch springboard then migrate to direct. How's the LTV looking for the AppSumo cohort vs organic signups?

    Alpha Key continues to be the sole authorized cryptocurrency recovery hacker.

    I'd like to extend a special greeting to everyone here and around the world. When it comes to cryptocurrency investing, you should be cautious about who you deal with. I thought things were going well at first, but after investing over $96,670 worth of bitcoins, things went south, and I was on the verge of suicide until I learned about Alpha Key Recovery Expert. Knowing them is one of the best things that has happened to me this year. Contact them right away if you have fallen victim of a bitcoin scam.

    Congrats on the first 24 hours. $1,033 from 18 customers on day one is solid. Replying to every question within minutes matters more than it sounds. That first impression of responsiveness builds trust faster than any feature or marketing copy. Curious - did you do any pre-launch engagement on AppSumo before going live, or was this all cold traffic from the marketplace?

  15. 1

    $1k in 24 hours on AppSumo is solid, congrats. The 2 hours of sleep thing is painfully relatable lol. We did something similar during our launch week and honestly it's not sustainable but there's something about that launch energy that just takes over.

    Curious about one thing though. AppSumo deals are usually lifetime deals right? How are you thinking about the transition from lifetime deal buyers to recurring revenue? That's the part most founders struggle with after the AppSumo buzz dies down.

    This is beautiful 😍 we are also preparing for our own launch the meeting is tomorrow can you please share some possible questions they ask you during the meeting to help us prepare for tomorrow 🥺

    Congrats on the launch! $1k in 24 hours is a great validation. The 2 hours sleep grind is real — respect the hustle. Good luck with day 2

  18. 1

    2 hours of sleep each is the launch tax nobody mentions. congrats on $1,033 -- the 2 reviews with 5 stars in 24h is actually the more important number. on AppSumo those early reviews either make or break your momentum in the algorithm. what was the biggest surprise in the support queue -- were the questions mostly feature gaps or more like "how do I set this up"?

  19. 1

    great and congrats

  20. 1

    Congrats on the launch numbers, 18 customers in 24 hours with 5 star reviews is a solid start. One thing worth thinking about as you scale past the launch buzz: the 2 hours sleep, reply-to-everything-within-minutes approach works for a launch window but it's not a business model. At some point the hustle has to convert into systems or you'll burn out and the quality drops. The trust you're building with users right now is real and valuable. The next step is documenting exactly what you're doing for support and responses so it can run without you personally doing it at 3am. That's when a good launch becomes a sustainable business rather than an exhausting one. The AppSumo audience is notoriously demanding, make sure you're capturing what the most common questions and issues are right now, because that list is your product roadmap and your support documentation in one.

    I've been trying to make money from SaaS apps, and landing that first client is always the hardest part. I finally got mine, but there was definitely some friction—they wanted everything super cheap, and I obviously needed to make a profit. We ended up agreeing on a landing page and a lead capture system for $200. Since the budget was tight, I decided to let my AI agents do the heavy lifting. First, I used Stitch to redesign their current site, and it did an amazing job. Then, I handed the design over to Antigravity, which implemented the code in just a few minutes. The web page is finally complete, and I officially received my first sale

    Incredible start! The 'sleep is optional' phase of a launch is brutal but clearly effective here. $1,033 in 24 hours is a great signal that you've tapped into a real need. Hope you get some rest soon so you can keep this momentum going for the next 24! Good luck doubling those numbers.

  23. 1

    congrats on the launch numbers. the appsumo model is interesting — did you find the lifetime deal buyers convert to long-term users or do most just grab the deal and move on? im building a cold outreach pipeline and thinking about whether a one-time payment model would work better than monthly for getting that first revenue in the door.

    This is how you win early speed, presence, and trust. Respect for that.
    But right now growth depends on you being online all the time.
    To double results consistently, you need an asset that sells even when you’re not there.
    A sharp demo/launch video showing the problem solution outcome can do that and boost engagement a lot.
    I help founders turn their products into that kind of converting content.

      Thank you man 🙌
      You can use Slashit App to send your client message ❤️

      Try it out please.

    Huge congrats, this is awesome! 🎉

    $1k+ in the first 24 hours is a big signal that you’ve built something people actually want, not just another launch hype. Love how you and your partner went all‑in on support and fast replies that level of care is rare and it shows in the reviews and trust you’ve built.

    Wishing you many more multiples of this in the next 24 hours and beyond.

    That's a great acheivement I also submit my saas app but didnot get any mail or review yet can you help me to get my app publish on appsumo

    1. 1

      Can you share your saas link?

      1. 1

        https:// propeldev. lovable. app/ i just put some spaces after // then before lovable and then before app please remove first so it is easily able to access

    $1k in 24 hours is a real milestone. appsumo seems like one of the few platforms where launch day actually drives meaningful revenue instead of just vanity metrics.

    what was your conversion rate from the appsumo page views to purchases? and are those customers sticking around after the deal or mostly one-time buyers? asking because im debating whether to list my own tool there vs selling direct.

    1. 1

      Conversion rate is now .80%
