Max Blade hit $36,000 in revenue
Posted on X Β· building CNVS
my mac app CNVS has done over $36k in a little over a month. this is what i learned : 1. Lifetime licenses are 100x easier to sell than subscriptions. ( not the right fit for everyone ) 2. Live streaming daily FORCES you to actually show up. I was lying to myself before about marketing and shipping. 3. I built a community of 500+ vibecoders in discord, i get constant feedback everyday that has made the app 1000x better. 4. build something unique... my app is 100% voice controlled, has stunning themes that make you happy, and everything is built around the latest research from ai labs. Ai is having the same problem that the health world had 5 years ago. People are shipping non-sense products that has zero basis in research. 5. Last and probably most importantly, build a product around what is hot, marketing will feel 1000x easier. my ios app quickclaw went from 0 to $7,200 in seven days, CNVS did the same thing because I actually listened to the market.

I made $20,500 in July 2026. π π€ AI Directories β $9,771 π€ Affiliates β $7,900 (BOOM! π₯) π₯· Stealth App β $2,500 (+$400 vs last month) βοΈ TransClipper β $50 (finally starting to convert!) I did it. I reached my $20K/month goal sooner than I expected. Next up: keep the momentum going and launch BrandReply. π My biggest dream is to build a house for my family, and every month I'm getting one step closer. I'll keep shipping, improving my products, expanding distribution, and helping even more founders grow. Let's keep building. πͺ

I launched my first SaaS (DoCV) exactly one year ago. The Product Hunt launch wasnβt promising: just 3 votes. I had no audience, no community, no beta users and no waitlist. All I had were a few Reddit posts. A year later, it has passed $2.7k MRR - slow and steady Not a single user came from X. I didnβt even start using X until six months after launching. Itβs been a rough year keeping it alive. Every user came through content, outreach and countless 1:1 conversations and now all from my own subreddit. The lesson? Be active where your users already live... not where the hype tells you to be.
I stopped selling MRR and went back to ARR for some but.. we are now at $2,930 MRR π Having done over $650,000 in ARR I wanted some monthly subscriptions for stability when tough times come round This is a tiny number, but we should hit $10kMRR in a few months with what is very little marketing rn Still insane to me that what started as a vibe coded project has come this far
