3 months from launching a paid plan, Yaak passed $250 MRR.
57 customers from 6k monthly active users (1% conversion).
Only 40x left to go to get to $10k MRR -- a sustainable income 💪🏼

One thing I notice a lot about LLM-generated code is how much is over-engineers and prematurely optimizes things.
This is why I mostly use generated code to get a rough idea (instead of research), then rewrite it myself.

Yaak made $3071 (+222%) in October
- MRR +20%
- Active subs +27%
I had some very strong marketing wins recently, so we’ll see how it goes once the added 5,000+ trials start to expire in November.

WTF. 🤯
Postman's server's are down and you can't even use desktop app with your local APIs!
This is exactly why I made yaak.app. It works offline, is open source, has no telemetry, no VC funding, and even syncs with Git!
Give it a try and let me know what you think ✨
