💰 Revenue: Marginal — $0 - $500/mo · MICRO tier · indicative confidence, trajectory unclear.
⭐ Quality: 3.49★ across 96 reviews — weak — significant quality concerns.
📍 Market: Not yet charting in any of the 9 monitored markets.
📈 Growth: ⚠ last update 2465d ago — possibly dormant.
⚠️ Risk: Elevated — dormant (2465d since update).

🎯 For competitors: Vulnerable. Quality drift + slow updates create a clear opening for a fresh competitor with active dev cadence.

💵 For acquirers: Estimated asking range 18-32× monthly = $3K-$6K. Portfolio play ($4K/mo combined) commands premium.
