- 💰 Revenue: Healthy — $262K - $1442K/mo · BIG tier · medium-low confidence, trajectory unclear.

- 📍 Market: Not yet charting in any of the 9 monitored markets.
- 📈 Growth: dev shipping weekly.
- ⚠️ Risk: Moderate — rating drift -0.41 ★ (recent 50 vs lifetime).
🎯 For competitors: Strong subscription moat. Hard to outcompete on retention. Better angle: free alternative with one-time purchase, or feature parity for an underserved sub-niche.
