Gaps Income Report, February 2025

February was a shorter month meaning things were a little quieter, but I like to think there are some really inspiring case studies there.

March 13, 2025
Each Gaps report is regularly updated with the latest revenue numbers and success stories we discover.

Our aim is to be bookmark-worthy, accurate, and massively inspire what you're working on.

Every month we share our Income Report (free), documenting the latest online startup success stories.

Thanks for giving us a chance. We hope to repay it 100-fold.

In an age of AI and marketing dictated by algorithms, I’m obsessed with which online businesses continue to thrive.

I spend countless hours each month going through earnings reports and funding rounds to find trends and discover success stories to help inspire your own journey.

The feedback continues to be incredible, and I truly appreciate everyone who has been sharing our work.

We’re not pulling in crazy numbers, but traffic to Gaps.com is definitely trending in the right direction.

Traffic to Gaps.com. We still have a ton of tools and features on the way, but we’re making progress

With that in mind, I want to say a huge ‘Thank You’ once again to everyone who has been sharing our work. It does not go unnoticed.

I want to continue trying to be valuable, so let’s dive in…

Langua, The Language Learning Platform Which Combines Tutors with AI, Hits $144K in MRR in Just 13 Months

This has to be one of the most impressive growth stories I’ve shared.

LanguaTalk was founded by Don Pottinger and Alex Redfern in 2021 as an online language learning platform.

In 2024 they introduced a project called Langua with a simple premise: Speak with a human-like AI in the language you want to learn, available 24/7.

It’s a brilliant idea, allowing users to practice speaking their new language at any time of day or night, for as long as they like, without having to schedule appointments. As one selling point, people are likely more comfortable making mistakes with AI than they are with humans.

Dom shared that Langua has grown to $144,000 in monthly recurring revenue just 13 months after launching.

Despite the fast growth of their AI solution, both co-founders still feel like the ideal language learning approach is a mix of AI and human instruction.

WordPress Management SaaS WP Umbrella Added €3,836 in MRR Last Month

Entrepreneur Aurelio Volle revealed the company he co-founded with Thomas Deneulin added 162 new members in January.

Their WordPress management platform, WP Umbrella, saw an increase of €3,836 (~$4,000 USD) in monthly recurring revenue.

WP Umbrella allows you to manage multiple WordPress installations from a single dashboard, enabling individuals and agencies to keep on top of plugin updates, backups, uptime monitoring and more.

Their pricing is as simple as it gets: $1.99 per month, per site.

At the start of 2025 Aurelio revealed that the company was generating over $60,000 in monthly revenue — a 152% increase from the previous year. The company was managing 39,969 active WordPress installations at that time.

A UK-Focused Online Furniture Store Just Posted Profits of £612,000 for the Year

Furniturebox.co.uk, an online-only retailer where you can buy furniture for indoors and out, revealed they increased annual revenue by more than 20%.

Sales grew to £25M, and they turned a £1M loss on the previous year into a £612,000 (~$773,000 USD) profit. These numbers are for the year ending July 31, 2024, but were only shared in February of 2025.

It was reported that US sales revenue tripled to almost £6M, though I can’t find any US-focused website of theirs. I understand they’re also selling items through Amazon, which helps account for the increase.

With Just One Hour of Work Per Week, This Niche Job Board Generated $673 Last Month

I’ve said a few times that I tend to get the most positive feedback about more “relatable” success stories, but that’s never my primary reason for sharing something.

I love seeing people compete in saturated industries with their own angle and start to see results.

A great example of this comes via Kyle Davidson, who shared on social media that his website, GetOutdoorJobs.com, generated $673 in January—an 18% increase on the month prior.

He also revealed the site reached 2,400 unique visitors and his newsletter currently has 4,097 subscribers.

Although the site accepts job post submissions, my understanding is that Kyle primarily aggregates job listings from around the web before putting them on his platform.

He then charges job seekers for the ability to access more than the ten recently posted jobs. Pricing is currently $3 for one week of access, $9 for one month or $29 per year.

If you’re interested in more success stories in this space, we have an in-depth report on job boards.

ScorePlay Raised $13M for a Business Model We’ve Previously Reported On (And I Think More Niche Variations Are Coming)

In our January income report I introduced a company called Air, which had just raised a $35M Series B to help brands manage their creative assets (videos, pictures, etc.) in one place online.

ScorePlay is essentially a niche-focused version of that, with a specific focus on helping sports organizations manage and distribute their content for broadcasting and the internet.

Major teams on board include Inter Miami (which Lionel Messi plays for), Premier League teams like Brentford and Aston Villa, and over 200 additional organizations.

As social media sharing continues to be a huge part of marketing, it makes sense we’ll see more niche variations of tools like this pop-up.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see variations of this being built for:

  • The music and film industry
  • The fashion industry
  • Real estate
  • The travel industry

Each industry has its own take on the style of content that they share, and the platforms could be built with that specific content creation in mind.

Our New (Free) SEO Research Tool Went Semi-Viral. A Huge Thanks to All That Shared It

For a few years I’ve been tracking top-ranking sites in different industries, then at set intervals checking the exact same search results to identify who’s gaining and losing rankings.

I’ve always thought about putting it live one day and now, with the funding and financials we’re sharing here at Gaps, it seemed like the perfect time to combine my two biggest passions.

After weeks of work, February saw us launch our free SEO research tool that you can find over at /research or under ‘Startup Rankings’ in our navigation bar.

The tool has already surpassed my original idea, with additions like our table on recently refreshed industries and the top digital goliaths across all sectors.

The reaction was far better than I expected, with thousands of people landing on the page from Facebook, LinkedIn and X, and that’s before I sent an email about it.

I don’t get reactions like this too often, so I had to take a screenshot.

I don’t get this kind of reaction too often, so I had to save it. Thanks to all who shared!

We’ve since had requests to add around 15 different niches. Some were a little bit too niche, but we’ve already added the likes of Automotive, Beauty and Crypto, and there are more niches on the way.

Be sure to bookmark the tool if your niche isn’t live yet (or suggest a new one via the FAQ on that page).

With 65,000 Unique Visitors, ‘OpenAlternative’ Had a Record Month, Generating $3,500

Piotr Kulpinski shared some impressive numbers for his directory which promotes open source alternatives to proprietary software.

As an example, OpenAlternative.co has a page on the best open-source alternatives to Notion, recommending the likes of Focalboard and Zettlr.

Google sent 9,000 clicks to the site for January, a 20% increase on December.

Revenue came in at $3,500, of which $1,137 was recurring.

I didn’t see any ads or affiliate links on his website (there may be some) but did notice sponsorship opportunities. The site also offers companies the option to submit their tool for an expedited review for $97.

What a cool business idea.

Visarun.ai Raised $700,000 to Help Companies Process Business, Work and Temporary Travel Visas (With the Help of AI)

I was hesitant about whether I should include Visarun.ai in this report but as they’re now the second visa-focused company I’m reporting on and I think that makes things more interesting.

I previously wrote about StampMyVisa.com, an India-focused travel SaaS that handles visas for the customers of travel agents.

Based in Dubai, Visarun.ai claims to reduce the manual labour involved in processing visas by 70% and resolve 99% of potential issues before any documents are officially submitted.

The angel investors behind the $700,000 pre-seed funding weren’t named but must see an opportunity to streamline and automate one of the least fun parts about travelling.

Youform, a Competitor to Typeform, Surpasses $5,000 in MRR

Created by Davis Baer and Abhishek Chakravarty in 2023, Youform is an alternative to Typeform that allows anyone to place forms on their website.

Typeform originally changed the game with their smart conditional logic, integrations and the step-by-step nature of their forms.

I’ve followed Davis for a few years now thanks to his success with his social media scheduling tool, OneUp.

Youform is bootstrapped and profitable, and smartly continues the trend of taking popular tools that have higher price points and offering a more affordable solution.

I Previously Shared ProjectionLab Hitting $52K in Monthly Recurring Revenue. Now It Just Surpassed $70K

In our first ever Gaps income report (October 2024) I shared the story of ProjectionLab, a bootstrapped financial planning SaaS.

Founder Kyle Nolan has just shared another new milestone for the business: They’ve surpassed $1M in lifetime revenue and are now generating more than $70,000 per month.

ProjectionLab made its first dollar in May of 2021, a few months after launch. Kyle admits there were times when he doubted the entire business and whether he should keep going.

The effort paid off, allowing Kyle to quit his job and work on ProjectionLab full-time, where he has now added tens of thousands of dollars in recurring revenue in just a few months.

NowThis Generated an Adjusted Profit of $4.6M in 2024 on Revenue of $20M

Head over to the NowThis YouTube channel and at a quick glance, it looks like a business that has faded into obscurity.

With over 2 million followers, their most recent YouTube videos have just 7,000, 1,600 and 1,700 views respectively.

Yet it’s these lower numbers that highlight their success, as Adweek’s Mark Stenberg had the scoop (paywall) that NowThis successfully pivoted into a profitable business focused on short-form video instead.

From the article,

“We were in the red in 2023 but very much in the black in 2024,” Mussali said. “We’ve made a significant pivot in how we show up for audiences and brands, all in a calendar year.”

NowThis, which was previously part of Vox Media and then later spun off into Accelerate Change, grew revenue 122% year over year.

Clicking around their profiles on various platforms, it doesn’t seem like they’re more successful on any individual one, and nor do they have a huge success rate with videos going viral.

(I should note I’m only looking at the reach of the videos they post themselves, rather than people sharing them further from their own accounts).

Instead, it seems like their focus on short-form video has so many potential platforms to benefit from (TikTok, Instagram Reels, Snapchat, YouTube Shorts, etc.) that combined, they’re getting a ton of reach.

Australia’s OpenLearning.com Grows ARR 23% Year Over Year to $2.34M

OpenLearning.com, publicly listed on the Australian Securities Exchange, recently announced growing their annual recurring revenue to $2.34M (~$1.48M USD).

Despite the growth, it’s important to note that OpenLearning is not currently profitable and focused on a path to breaking even.

As per recent reports, they have 236 B2B customers on their platform, which allows companies to create and manage short courses and then offer micro-credentials or even online degrees.

Their average revenue per B2B customer is $9,676, which increased 17% year over year. Unlike competitors such as Edx and Coursera, most OpenLearning customers are in Australia, Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia and India.

They also have 126 B2C customers for their CourseMagic AI course builder, which is up by 98 on the previous quarter.

Pirsch Analytics Grew MRR to $11,375 Last Month (And Is Now the Third Similar SaaS We’ve Reported On)

In our January income report I covered both Simple Analytics and Seline.so, which were generating $35,000 and $500 per month respectively.

Now let me introduce you to what is fair to call a competitor of theirs, Pirsch Analytics.

Revealed in February, their cookie-free analytics SaaS grew MRR 5.4% to $11,375, and they increased the number of subscribers on their platform from 584 to 597.

One obvious reason companies are happy to use privacy-focused analytics is so that they’re compliant with the likes of GDPR and CCPA and don’t need to put cookie warnings on their website.

Another is likely because Google Analytics 4 requires such a steep learning curve (among other things) that there has been a growing audience looking for something to replace it with.

This Content Site and Discovery Platform for Pickleball Players Just Raised a $2.5M Seed Round

Head on over to Pickleheads.com and the premise is clear: Use their search functionality to find local places to play Pickleball and when games are happening.

The site lists more than 20,000 places to play the sport and has signed up over 366,000 users.

In the fundraising announcement they shared that “Pickleheads serves nearly 1 million players every month.

While Google Trends isn’t a flawless way to gauge the popularity of something, it seems like Pickleball has had a rise in popularity over the past few years, then levelled off in 2024.

(On the other hand, Pickleheads grew registered users by 405% last year, so they probably still have a lot of growing to do).

Reading through their blog post regarding the funding, they revealed they have plans to help people become “pickleball entrepreneurs” thanks to their technology. Essentially allowing court owners to run their own pickleball business with their app and website.

Being an SEO, I can’t help but think there’s a ton of potential to grow search traffic to a site like this as well.

We Continue to Track Digital-First Public Companies (And Many Just Reported Their Latest Revenues)

If this isn’t your first visit to Gaps you probably know we have a page tracking the search traffic and revenue of public companies at gaps.com/public.

Public companies might not be the most relatable businesses but it’s good to see how different brands are fairing in this age of AI and search traffic fluctuations.

Below you can see a sample of their latest quarterly revenue numbers compared to what they were generating a year prior.

Public Company Previous Revenue Latest Revenue Change
1stDibs $20.9M $22.8M 9%
Cars.com $179.6M $180.4M 0%
Dotdash Meredith $475.9M $522.1M 10%
FIGS $144.9M $151.8M 4%
Fiverr $91.5M $103.7M 13%
LADbible Group $89.5M $108.8M 22%
LegalZoom $158.6M $161.7M 2%
M.O.B.A Network $7.6M $8.6M 13%
NerdWallet $133.7M $183.8M 37%
Semrush $83.4M $102.6M 23%
Sprout Social $93.6M $107.1M 14%
Tripadvisor $390M $411M 5%
Trip.com $1.3Bn $1.7Bn 23%
Wayfair $3.1Bn $3.1Bn 0%
Wix $403.8M $460.5M 14%
Ziff Davis $389.9M $412.8M 5%

Dotdash Meredith is just one part of $IAC, but I’m personally much more interested in how the media and content site arm of the company is doing, so decided to separate their revenues.

Revenue is not profit, of course, so please do your own research before considering any investments, but it’s interesting to see them all growing (or just about).

In Just Three Months, Form Builder Tally Has Added Another $25,000 in MRR (Now Generating $2M in Annual Recurring Revenue)

It feels like yesterday that I shared form builder Tally surpassed $150,000 in MRR. It was only three months ago, and they’ve already sailed past $175,000 in MRR.

Perhaps even more impressive: Tally is fully bootstrapped and comprises a full-time team of just five people.

Tally allows anyone to build forms to gather feedback, conduct research, sell products, receive messages from site visitors, create quizzes and anything else a form could be used for.

I’ve heard from numerous people that their free plan is generous and likely serves as great marketing for the company (forms have branding on them). Over 500,000 companies use Tally forms, and some quick maths suggests “only” ~7,000 of them are paying customers (Tally may have revealed the actual numbers somewhere, but I haven’t seen them).

That quick maths is based on a monthly fee of $29/m (or $24/m if you’re paying annually) and the likelihood that prices have increased since they started, which helps average out some of the higher-priced plans.

Paying for the service, which also offers a $74/m business plan, allows you to host forms on your own domain, remove Tally branding and work on your forms in tandem with other team members.

I love seeing small, focused and creative companies doing well, and Tally is the epitome of that.

With More Than Half of Their Traffic from Google, Job Application SaaS Hirevire Generated $7,480 Last Month

Hirevire offers automated screening software so you can collect video, audio and files for job candidates at your company.

The aim is to make it easier for companies to find candidates who best fit their open positions.

I first covered the company in our October 2024 income report, revealing they had generated just over $4,000 for the month.

Hirevire founder Sanat (he doesn’t share his surname) recently shared some new specifics, like:

  • $6,008 in one-time revenue for the month
  • The site reached 7,700 unique visitors (4,800 from Google)
  • $1,472 in monthly recurring revenue (up 7.2% month over month)
  • 4,134 applications collected for customers

When Sanat shares these numbers, I understand he counts MRR and one-time revenue separately, but I’ve reached out to confirm.

I’ve recently seen multiple companies raise millions for a similar angle, so I’ll write a section on those next month if the trend continues.

This Online Furniture Store Doubled Net Profit to $9M and Grew Active Customers By 22%

Australian online furniture brand Temple & Webster shared their half-year trading update in February, reporting a 117% increase in year-over-year net profit.

In concerning news for competitors, 45% of revenue was generated thanks to products exclusive to the company, which is up from 37% in H1 of 2024.

On the website you can find everything you would typically expect from a furniture store, from beds and wardrobes to rugs, lighting and outdoor items.

Although I’m not involved in the furniture space online myself (and don’t imagine too many people reading this are), I think the battle in search results is pretty fascinating so I’ll start tracking that on our SEO research tool very soon.

With a Large Increase in Revenue, Publishing Platform Superblog.ai Hits the $80,000 ARR Milestone

Superblog promotes itself as an alternative to WordPress, allowing customers to focus on creating content rather than optimizing website speed and keeping plugins up to date.

Founder Sai Krishna has been building the company alone and documenting his journey since launching the platform in 2021. He recently revealed his SaaS crossed $80,000 in annual recurring revenue.

Pricing starts at $29/m for the basic plan (it’s cheaper if you pay annually), allowing you to remove branding and get hosting for up to 100,000 monthly pageviews. If you want features like the ability to schedule posts, you’ll have to pay for a higher tier.

What people are paying for, of course, is convenience.

There will be those who want to handle everything themselves and have the full benefits of the WordPress (or similar) ecosphere, while others just want to focus on publishing content, which Superblog perfectly caters to.

Gallery Media Group, Behind PureWow.com and Social Media Handles like @Recipes, Generated $50M in 2024

Press Gazette had the exclusive in February that Gallery Media Group, behind PureWow.com, generated more than $50M for the year.

The company primarily generates income from advertising but also has affiliate and eCommerce revenue.

Some of the example handles it owns on popular platforms like TikTok and Instagram include @recipes, @cocktails, @moms and @ballplayers.

The company doesn’t just view social media platforms as a place to promote their websites but views the accounts they’ve built up as the actual business. They’re focused on the platforms first, rather than seeing them as a traffic source to funnel elsewhere.

That’s a very different approach to how most people think of building on social media.

Finally, the piece also revealed that the company has been profitable since 2011 and expects revenue to continue to grow in 2025.

With 80,000+ Chrome Extension Users, Guidde Raises $15M to Help You Create Documentation with AI

February brought the news that Guidde (not a typo) had raised a $15M extension to their Series A, bringing their total funding to $30M.

What Guidde does is pretty interesting: They help you create onboarding docs, FAQs, product feature notes, SOPs and more with the help of AI.

Though I didn’t see any specific income numbers, co-founder and CEO Yoav Einav said that revenue has increased 4x in the past 12 months, and they now have over 100,000 users across 2,000 companies using their platform.

(My 80,000 number in the headline for this section was focused on the count shown next to their extension for Google Chrome).

At least one focus of Guidde is the ability to record your screen while performing specific actions, which Guidde will turn into a step-by-step description complete with a voiceover of your choosing and attractive visuals.

I don’t know how many companies need to continually create onboarding docs and SOPs, but I imagine once they’re created, you’re mostly “locked in” to Guidde to continue to show them, which likely makes their business almost as sticky as web hosting and site analytics.

Alvas.ai, Which Uses AI for Personalised Email Outreach, Grows MRR 91% to $16,350

Alvas.ai founder Villads Leth revealed last week that his AI tool for “hyper-personalization in email marketing” was now generating $16,350 in monthly recurring revenue.

He also shared the company has $39,147 in the bank. As far as I know, they had most recently raised a modest $61,500 in May of 2024.

You may recall Alvas from our November income report, where I revealed they had just surpassed the $100,000 in annual revenue mark.

Alvas is not the only company of their type we’ve been tracking:

Startup Simplified Latest Finances
Alvas.ai AI-driven email personalization SaaS February 2025
$16,350 in MRR
Singulate Generative AI personalization for email marketing outreach January 2025
$2.3M Pre-seed
11x Scale outbound with AI assisted personalization November 2024
$50M Series B
Bounti An AI teammate that helps generate personalized emails September 2024
$16M Seed

It may be the case that companies expand upon what we share about them above, but they’re only included if AI email is a big part of what they do. Bounti, for instance, has big plans but has started by focusing on AI that helps with email personalization.

Launched At the End of 2024, Tolan Has Already Surpassed $1M in ARR and 500,000 Users

Tolan wants to differentiate itself from what typically comes to mind when you hear the phrase “AI Chatbot”.

Instead, its founders prefer to refer to it as an “embodied companion.” I heard someone else describe Tolan as a new era of Tamagotchi, where you have an animated alien friend responsive to your words and actions.

Co-founder Quinten Farmer revealed that they found an unexpected audience for their product since launching: Primarily young adult women who have active social lives and large friend groups, but feel overwhelmed.

On the back of the success, Tolan’s parent company Partola has announced a $10M seed round led by Lachy Groom.

While not entirely similar, it reminds me a little of the Manifest App we covered on Insight #7 in our first-ever monthly report. There’s something about sharing your thoughts and feelings and getting instant feedback, even if not from a human, that people are clearly finding valuable in their lives.

Oneflow Grew ARR 29% to $15.4M in 2024, But the Contract Management SaaS Says Churn Has Been Higher Than Expected

Oneflow, a software as a service business that handles all aspects of managing contracts, ended 2024 with MSEK 166.8 (~$15.4M USD) in annual recurring revenue.

CEO and founder Anders Hamnes said that although the company is growing, “internally we’re disappointed” and reiterated the goal for 2025 is to grow ARR by more than 30% and achieve profitability.

I think those who run their own SaaS companies might appreciate the openness of one aspect of their press release,

Churn has been higher than expected, particularly in the second half of 2024, primarily among smaller companies with low product adoption. Despite the financial outlook being stronger than it’s been in years, many small businesses are still having a tough time. Even though most sound businesses have recovered from the last few years’ shakeout, hiring remains slow, and this is putting a pressure on upsales and cross sales within our existing customer base.

The company is currently promoting their wait list for ‘Oneflow AI’, which will allow customers to write, review and analyze contracts using artificial intelligence.

UK’s Just Move In Raises $8M for an Interesting (And Now Proven) Business Model

Just Move In does something I’ve never seen before: They help people who have moved house set up necessities like broadband internet, insurance, TV packages and even help in choosing an electricity provider.

With over 2,500 Trustpilot reviews and new ones coming in almost every day, they’ve clearly found a business offering that people need.

Moving home can be stressful enough, so having someone on your side to help sort out all the details beyond where you’re going to live makes a lot of logical sense.

The company projects they’ll be involved in the process of over 400,000 home moves in 2025, which is surprisingly only around 13% of the market..

The company had previously raised a £4M seed round in 2022.

Whenever I see a business model working well in one country, I can’t help but think it could probably be transported (see what I did there?) to a lot of other countries as well.

Just Move In is aiming to do just that, with the funds expected to be used for their expansion further into Europe.

Launched in 2024, This Custom AI App Generator Has Hit $5,000 in Monthly Recurring Revenue

Builder Aditya Saxena shared the news on social media that his AI app startup, Pmfm.ai, hit $5,000 in MRR in February.

His previous revenue update was when he hit $1,000 in MRR six months earlier, in August of 2024.

There’s no About page nor FAQ mention of what Pmfm stands for (my brain instantly went to Product-market-fit maker for some reason) but through a bit of digging found it stands for Pay Me For My AI.

The platform lets anyone build, design and monetize an AI application, and says it’s used by over 2,000 people, including at companies like Verizon.

Pmfm has a free plan that lets you create up to five apps, but you’ll need one of their paid plans (which start at $15/m) if you want to start monetizing and tracking how people use your creation.

A Cooking YouTuber Shares Her Exact Video Costs ($3,500) and Revenue Per 1,000 Views ($10)

I don’t actively produce content on YouTube but I am fascinated by how financially viable it is to build a brand on the platform.

Carla Lalli Music shared a deep-dive into how much revenue she makes from her cooking videos, and revealed that she’s only profitable through branded deals, and not from what she generates from YouTube directly.

On average she was spending $14,000 per month on video production (not including groceries) yet her highest grossing Adsense months were half that, generating $7,544 in October of 2022 and $7,028 in May of 2024.

Carla revealed she had hopes to use her YouTube channel to potentially land some form of TV deal (her own show, or being part of another) but detailed some struggles on that front as well.

Interestingly, she revealed that her Substack newsletter, with 45,000 subscribers, “is my primary source of income by an overwhelming margin”.

With her very personal writing style, it’s easy to see why she has such a large following.

Stagetimer.io Generated $29,059 in February (And Its Founder Says SEO & Google Ads Help With Marketing)

Stagetimer allows anyone to create countdown timers for presentations, meetings, livestreams and more.

While some use cases are fairly simple, timers can get more advanced, as events might have dozens of different speakers all with set times for how long they’ll talk.

Founder Lukas Hermann has been sharing his success with the SaaS product for a few years now, and previously revealed how effective SEO has been for him.

In 2024 Lukas shared that “Use cases and very technical “How to” articles work well” for SEO.

There’s a bit more to it than that if you head into your favourite third-party traffic tool (Ahrefs, Similarweb, etc) but I don’t think it’s my place to dive in further.

Congratulations on the continued success, Lukas.

There Are 646 Startups in the Gaps Database: Here’s Who’s Trending Across the Web in the Past Month

If you head on over to our industry reports page you’ll see we currently document the revenue and funding amounts of ~432 startups.

Inside the Gaps database however, we’ve already written about 646 different companies — many are just in a niche we haven’t covered thoroughly enough to produce a report on.

With that in mind, from the 600+ companies we track, here is who we found trending in February:

Startup Simplified Description Est. MoM Growth
Podscan Podcast conversations analysis 108%
UrbanStems Online flower deliveries 110%
Citizen Ticket Ticketing software for events 114%
Apriora Automated candidate interview screening 168%
LiveFlow Finance analysis and reporting software 817%

There were other similar companies trending, such as FlowerChimp, which makes sense when February was host to Valentine’s Day.

I Want to Build Gaps Into 1% of the Size of The Financial Times, and Would Love Your Help to Get There (+ Links to Discuss This Report)

It’s my dream to be able to write and share these reports every month, but as a team of three we don’t have a ton of time to market them.

There’s still a ton of features we have in development that I can’t wait to share (our new SEO stock market page got a great reaction, but that’s just scratching the surface).

I might be totally wrong, but I think if we truly care about making these reports insightful, we’ll have people who want to read them. Hopefully it shows how much effort goes into these, but I actually feel very lucky to have the chance to write them.

If you found any value in this at all, sharing it on social media would be sincerely appreciated. Here are direct links to discuss this report on X (Twitter), LinkedIn and Facebook.

And if you’re not the sharing type, you can DM me with feedback via those same links.

Or even better, reply to the first email when you subscribe to our email list below (hey, if you don’t ask and all that…).

Thank you so much for giving me a chance with this new venture.

– Glen Allsopp

P.S. Here are the links again to discuss the report on X (Twitter), LinkedIn and Facebook.

We're a small bootstrapped team, trying to create the freshest, most accurate resource for startup revenue and gaps in the market. Social sharing is appreciated (and always noticed). – Glen Allsopp
