<p><b>Startup description</b></p><p>My platform is a marketplace and a company of minimalist SaaS tools available for a one-time payment. Our mission is simple: stop paying every month for tools you barely use. We offer clean, efficient alternatives to bloated SaaS like Typeform, Calendly, Linktree, and more — without monthly fees.</p><p>The project started out of personal frustration with dozens of recurring charges from tools we barely used. We decided to build lean, focused alternatives and package them into a single platform.</p><p><b>Key highlights:<b></b></b></p><ul><li>Annual revenue: $5,436.95</li><li>Annual profit: $5,053.65</li><li>Churn rate: N/A (one-time payment)</li><li>LTV: $17 per customer</li><li>CAC: $0 (mainly organic)</li><li>Paid users: 523</li><li>Total users (not paid + paid): 1300</li><li>Main tools sold: MangoForm (Typeform alternative), PeachCalendar (Calendly alternative)</li></ul><p><b>Team</b></p><p>Just me - founder in charge of product design, dev coordination, marketing, and customer support.</p><p><b>Tech Stack</b></p><p>NextJs, Supabase, React Typescript.</p><p><b>Marketing and growth</b></p><ul><li>Product Hunt launch: 700+ upvotes (3rd product of the day), 200+ new users</li><li>Twitter/Linkedin strategy: build in public approach</li><li>Top channels: Indie Hackers, Reddit, Twitter</li><li>Referral loop: users came via affiliate links</li></ul><p><b>Main revenue drivers</b></p><ul><li>Typeform alternative (form builder).&nbsp;</li><li>Calendly alternative (appointment booking tool)</li></ul><p>The business runs on a lean, efficient model with very low overhead and high profit margins (92.9%).
