Built a Chrome Extension for Gemini at 16 — $1,750 Revenue in the First Month

Hey hackers, I want to talk about a problem that's been bugging me for months: Google Gemini is genuinely powerful, but the interface treats you like a casual user even if you live in it all day.

No folders. No way to queue messages while it's generating. No bulk export. A sidebar full of "Untitled Chat" conversations you can never find again. I got frustrated enough to build the solution myself.

I'm 16, from the Czech Republic, and I launched it in December after months of building, and only added monetization recently. The result is Superpower for Gemini — it adds a native folder system, a smart message queue (queue multiple prompts while Gemini is still generating), bulk export to PDF/DOCX/TXT, a prompt library, and a daily limit counter for Thinking/Pro models that Google hides from you completely.

The numbers so far, under one month since launching monetization:

• 6,000 users

• $1,750 revenue

• $170 MRR

• Freemium model: free tier + $7.99/mo, $59.99/yr, $99 lifetime

The feature I'm most proud of is the Message Queue. It sounds simple but it completely changes how you work — you stop babysitting the AI and start actually getting things done.

I'd love feedback on:

• What would make you upgrade from free to paid on a tool like this?

• Is lifetime pricing at $99 leaving money on the table long-term?

Happy to answer anything about the build or the monetization strategy!
