Solopreneur shipping startups like a madman | $94,799/month

I moved the startup office to Crete, Greece 🇬🇷

My wife and I are searching for a new nest after Bali, so we travel slowly and hit the local gyms to make new friends.

I'm back to work after 10 days off for Christmas. I'm working on TrustMRR's marketplace, setting up Escrow to transfer startups safely.

Wake up.

You don't need to run 3 Claude Code on a Mac Mini to build a profitable startup.

The tools are getting better.

But the fundamentals haven't changed.

 All you need is one feature and a buy button.

Speed is useless if you’re running toward nothing.

If your startup flopped, relaunch it.
If it flops again, relaunch it.
Relaunch until it works.

Nobody remembers your last post.

I started investing in AI today 🦾

I'm late to the party, but this is where a significant portion of my startup profits will be invested this year.

✅ ACQUIRED

The startup was making $220/month and was sold for $2,500.

It took 14 days since the startup was listed for sale.

I built a leaderboard of the 20 fastest-growing tech startups.

It’s powered by my $1.2B database of verified startup revenues (TrustMRR), processing 10,000+ real payments per day.

Sometimes a startup goes viral overnight.

I created Unicor.ne to surface this signal.

It ranks startups by revenue growth over 7d, 30d, and 90d. Every startup listed on TrustMRR is re-analyzed for growth every hour, and recent performance is compared to historical baselines. Consistent acceleration ranks higher.

A unicorn might already be in there 🦄

✅ ACQUIRED

A niche website with $0 revenue, but strong traffic.

Listed for sale 42 days ago.

Acquired for $3,700.

I just added a daily digest to TrustMRR 🎉

If you've registered a buyer account, every day you'll receive the top startup listed for sale:

- Split by asking range 
- Sorted by best deals first (mix of growth/revenue/multiple)
- At your desired timezone (go to settings to change that)

Next: Sending custom alerts when <filter> is triggered (i.e., "Startup with 10K MRR and multiple <= 3.5 was listed on sale an hour ago")

Growing a SaaS to $1M valuation:

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟧⬜️ 89%

We are the people "who got rich during the AI gold rush"

AI SaaS just listed on TrustMRR:

- $2K MRR
-  98% profit margin
- grew by 42% last 4 weeks
- $30k asking (1.3x profit multiple)

The SaaS is a 4-month-old AI resume builder for the French market.

All details: https://lnkd.in/eEgJCR8N

My little SaaS crossed 1,000 paying users.

Not an AI startup. Very crowded market.

You can do it too 💪
