How it rates
ValuationLow ⚑
Similar consumer software businesses we've tracked mostly ask 2.6–4.9x profit, or 2.2–4.1x adjusted for its higher risk; this one asks 0.9x.
Durability
Only 4 months of revenue, and the listing shows no visitors, customer count or sales channel.
Hands-off
The seller says it takes 1 hour a week, with no team and no technical skills needed.
Why it's interesting
- Reported monthly revenue rose every month: $4,950 in June, $7,200 in July, $8,100 in August and $9,400 in September.
- Hosting runs on Firebase, Cloudflare and AWS, mostly on free tiers, and the seller says one person can run it.
- The seller is retiring and offers support after the sale, with assets transferable within a day.
What to watch
- Only four months of revenue exist. The email calls the business 3 months old and the page says 6 months.
- The page lists 0 monthly visitors and gives no customer count, pricing or way customers find the product.
- Profit is put at 99% of revenue even though the product runs on AI APIs and AWS, which usually charge by usage. The page's header calls the $29,650 total profit, but its notes call the same figure revenue.
- The "3 months to Sep" average of $6,750 matches June to August rather than July to September, and the email says $6,075. At under 1x profit, the ask is far below what consumer software usually asks.
Ask the seller
- Can you share payment processor records for June to September showing the number of customers, the price paid and any refunds?
- Where do paying customers come from, given that the listing shows zero monthly visitors?
- Why ask about 1x profit for a business whose revenue grows every month, and what do the AI API and AWS bills come to each month?
Growth plays
- Build a browser extension that analyzes postings directly on LinkedIn and Indeed job pages.
- Sell bulk access to university career services offices and outplacement firms that support laid-off employees.
- Add a paid résumé-tailoring step matched to each posting the tool analyzes.
