4. Kleo hit $25k MRR in 36 hours
Kleo is “Your AI content partner that's trained on you and grows with you” and helps you create engaging content using AI. Rob claims to have hit $25k MRR in just 36 hours after launching, all thanks to a strong waitlist.
totally blown away: we launched 36 hours ago...
already surpassed $25k mrr
never underestimate the power of a strong waitlist + launch strategy: the superbowl is won in the preseason!
if there's enough interest i'm happy to make a thread breaking down our strategy 🫡

5. Denis makes $1k/day with his Skype alternative
Denis built Yadaphone, a Skype alternative that lets you make cheap international calls directly from your browser, and now makes over $1k/day with it. They claim to have over 10,000 users and over 30 business/enterprise clients which make up 30% of their payments. I expect Skype shutting down earlier gave them a nice growth boost. Looks like they’ve landed on a super lucrative niche :)
I built a Skype replacement for businesses in a night
Now it's making $1000 a day
Here's how it happened
