How many failed startups have you launched? I think I just launched my 14th. No, buying a domain and doing nothing with it doesn't count. To count as a startup you: - You launched a website or - You turned on Stripe payments or - You formed a LLC or Corp - You started paid advertising - You got 1+ paying customer - You raised $1+ dollar from outside funders |
2. notion backups service [2]. launched in late 2021, total sales $100k, while still growing ~60% YoY. in hindsight, I should have picked an adjacent niche, since this business is technically difficult and not as easy to sell as a Notion site builder, for example.
3. churn analytics for stripe [3]. got accepted to the stripe marketplace, but still haven't gotten a single customer because I haven’t marketed it much. I use it daily and it is very helpful. for that reason alone, i don't want to kill it.

btw, your docs pages look malformed; seems like markdown metadata slipping into the page content: https://boxwatch.app/docs/api/authentication
Still pushing what has now turned into a pet project, serves many free members, but none that feel its worth paying for.
