I ran some chat analytics on some GroupMe groups for my friends and realized that other people probably would be interested in them too, so I turned it into a little product.

August 4, 2021 $10 MRR!

Oh baby, one month after transitioning the site from single-time payments to subscriptions, I've passed $10 MRR!

The site has consistently earned flat but steady revenue around $120 / month, so if that translates to subscriptions then I can expect MRR to grow by about $10 every month moving forwards. Not exactly a rocket ship, but definitely better than the once-and-done payment model that was there previously.

I used SaaS Pegasus's built in Stripe Checkout and Stripe billing portal support to manage subscriptions, so it was very quick and easy to add!

April 15, 2018 First paying customer!

Just a few days after finally adding a paid tier to Chat Stats—much to my complete surprise—I actually made a sale!

One of the features included with the “upgrade” is a daily auto-refresh feature. Only problem is that feature doesn’t exist. I’ve been setting myself a calendar reminder to go and refresh all the paid chats each morning. So I guess I'm going to have to build that next...
