How much does Kode QR make per month?

Based on our ML-calibrated revenue forecast, Kode QR earns approximately $5.0K/mo. This is a US-storefront-equivalent estimate; global revenue can be several times larger for internationally-distributed apps. See the methodology page for the full formula and confidence bands.

Is Kode QR profitable?

With estimated build cost $130K and monthly revenue $5.0K, Kode QR looks break-even-grade — payback period sits around 2.2 years. Profitability also depends on paid-acquisition spend and refund rate which the public model doesn't see.

How many users does Kode QR have?

Estimated audience: ~9K lifetime downloads, ~490 monthly active users, and ~80 daily active users. Derived from ratings count × category installs-per-rating × age decay. US-storefront-equivalent — global audience can be 5-10× larger for internationally-distributed apps.

💰 Revenue: Modest — $3K - $7K/mo · MID tier · medium confidence, trajectory unclear.
⭐ Quality: 3.78★ across 129 reviews — below category median.
📍 Market: Not yet charting in any of the 9 monitored markets.
📈 Growth: Insufficient signal to assess trajectory.
⚠️ Risk: Low — no material risk signals detected.

🎯 For competitors: Mixed picture. Worth competing if you have a clear UX or pricing edge — otherwise crowded segment.

💵 For acquirers: Estimated asking range 18-32× monthly = $90K-$160K. Portfolio play ($32K/mo combined) commands premium.
