💰 Revenue: Modest — $3K - $7K/mo · MID tier · medium confidence, trajectory unclear.
⭐ Quality: 4.82★ across 954 reviews — solid.
📍 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 ($14K/mo combined) commands premium.
