$4k (That was fast!)

https://unindie.com/open

I didn't expect to reach $4k so soon. I was just at $3500 two weeks ago. A combination of more free trials and next to no churn led to an incredible first two weeks of February!

Really excited to get to remake the Assistant and add more features that users have been asking for. Lot's more in store!

    More than revenue would interesting to see the profit

      Profit is 100%. Technically I pay $12 a year for the domain name 🤷.

      I have a Firebase backend - and my usage is well within the free tier. I don't pay for any marketing or content services. I built everything and write everything from scratch.

      The only channels of growth are through word-of-mouth and SEO (I would argue mostly SEO).

      I don't think it will always be 100% profit, I plan on adding some more powerful features that will use Firebase more extensively. But for now, I really just check to see if people are paying when they log into the app. The rest of the functionality of the app is client-side.

      Yes the profit is important

    What's your feed URL? I've tried a few common URL guesses but had no success...

    I have zero intention of signing up for an email list, but if you have a feed, I'll happily add your blog to my reader!

    Congrats. What tool do you use to show the Open Stats or is that a separate service

      I use the same Firebase backend I use for the app and I made the page myself.

      I use https://webtask.io to run a cron job everyday to pull my stripe/google analytics into firebase, and then I display the data from firebase on the page.
