I started curating revenue numbers of indie founders

Love the idea but may I suggest that you change the background color? This red is burning my retina and makes the reading experience really hard/insufferable. There are also accessibility issues induced by this specific background color. Great work nonetheless!

I love the simplicity of the project. Submitted my project. Thanks for sharing!

We're also on the site! :)

I like the simple design. It doesn't include all of our revenue (there is some outside of Stripe), but overall really well done!

This is supercool. How frequently do you refresh the data?

This is very cool. Noted the comments on the red color which I didn't see, but now the design is very minimilist and looks great!

Searched for a random business, Beehiiv and was surprised it was there!

Hey, great idea! May I suggest adding the founder's handles?

Great idea Jakob, I just submitted my gamified habit tracker Habits Garden

Also upvoted your PH launch and followed you on Twitter 😊

That's so incredibly interesting, but please change the background color. Otherwise great idea!

This is great project kudos for launching it however i am not able to look at the site for long because of red background. My suggestion is to use some other color preferably with accessibilty in mind

This is awesome Jakob. I was searching for exactly site like this :)

Hey Jakob, cook project! Have You thought about submitting this post as a link post? These seem to be performing better on Indie Hackers nowadays.

This is cool! Love the clean design and already discovered quite a few interesting projects

just one word, noice!
jokes apart, seriously looks cool, sent it to few of my friends!

This is great! Thanks for putting this together. A few thoughts for improvement (since I want to see this successful). Mobile responsiveness could use some love, some companies are duplicated, and latency is quite high (in the middle of US)

Great idea! It's great to add an option for the real founders to claim their own revenue page so the founders can start pushing real numbers there.

I think this is cool but I'm curious what everyones obsession is with revenue numbers?

Is it inspiring to know it's possible? Or is there some competitive edge others are looking for?

Why do ppl care so much about others revenue?

Please, please use Baremetrics' "open startups" page as a ref for styling https://prnt.sc/dwzN_T28MkYt

Very nice initiative.

Love the idea. Fancy adding us https://skilledup.life - free talent for tech startups?

Our metrics are https://skilledup.life/metrics

Hi @jakobgreenfeld, cool! Can I update the revenue of Tally?

Awesome stuff Jakob!

Great newsletter marketing hack.

Would love to understand the backend a bit of a "simple" project like this for you. It's an Airtable backend and then Tailwind CSS in the frontend?

I know you have a Physics background, so did you self learn the Tailwind or do you recommend a particular course to follow and level up?

Amazing idea and site

A few more sources that could be helpful:

• Open Startup (I didn't see this listed as a source but you may already be using it)
• Microns
• Side Projectors
• Other acquisition marketplaces

This is very cool @jakobgreenfeld how are you finding these startups?

This is a great resource! Keep this up!

Love it!
Did you manually collect the data?

Cool Idea!

I'd love to hear how effective these side projects are for getting newsletter subscribers.

Looks like a great start! Where are you getting most of that data from? Is it mostly manual or is it automated in some way?

Very cool! It'd be interesting to see this data graphically. Like, how long does it take the average indie hacker to hit $1k MRR, $10kMRR, etc. And then maybe split it up by industry, product type, monetization model, etc. etc.

You could get some great press and backlinks by taking your novel visualized data and submitting it to press requests on HARO, for example. Or by finding good articles that lack solid data, and reaching out. Just my two cents.

Thats great information!

A feedback though: mind changing the background color to a milder one? :) Red is too flashy to the eye

Tight design! Really nice.

• It seems like it's just "any" company. Would be cooler to me if it was JUST bootstrapped companies. Or just solopreneurs or something. Would give it a really nice focus and a "root for the underdogs" sentiment.
• Would love to see an "about" or something that explains what it is. The site is a bit obvious, but I still think you need it -- and per my earlier bullet, it isn't clear what kinds of companies are being shown (I honestly could give a rat's ass what a company like Hubspot makes).

Thanks for sharing Jakob! Will definitely be following this. If you're interested I put together an air table with 100 bootstrapped SaaS websites and apps with revenue numbers (if I could find them) -https://niconley.gumroad.com/l/100BootstrappedWebsites?_gl=1*

Interesting project!

Really cool project! I saw you on Product Hunt and upvoted Revenue Watcher there.
Also, I submitted revenue signal from Indie Hackers for https://scrapingfish.com.
Please review when you have a chance, thanks!

Good for a little pep up. Bookmarked with the like of Makerlead. Microfounder.

Couple of questions:

1. Theres more startups choosing not be transparent with pricing (see those that have left various openstartup schemes). You think this would affect revenue aggregators in the long run? Or will the marketing aspect of being open be too good to ignore?

2. How are the competitors sourced? Is by a bot or script? They seem to be a bit hit and miss. Take for example the Wishtender.com listing. The competitors don't seem to be a tenuous?

Love this! Definitely a motivation booster :)
Congrats on building this Jakob!

This is really cool. I have added the WBE Space
thank you
