Pausing Active Development

by Jordan Gaston

After almost three years we've decided to pause active development on Trimbox to pursue other opportunities. The decision was difficult. We're proud of the product but still feel as though we are just scratching the surface. There are few critical milestones coming up in the next few months. If those go well who knows! Maybe we'll start hacking again ✌🏾.

    Cool product! How did your revenue grow so fast from $14k/mo to almost $60k/mo between October 2022 and January 2023?

      @kailu TLDR; IMO the opportunity cost of continuing work on this project is too high. We have a few other ideas that if successful would be more valuable businesses. If you're curious I can provide a more detailed analysis of how we came to to this decision.

      Thanks Ade! We're currently validating a few ideas. I'd love to steal ten minutes from you to do some discovery about one that feels promising. I'm sure we could learn alot from your experience 🙏🏾.
