Prototype reached
🧪 Prototype v1 shipped in 9 evenings. Core loop: signup → unique referral link → position jumps when friends join.
🙋
First User reached
🙋 First user's waitlist went live. He got 340 signups in 3 days — up from his usual ~30. Validation feels good.
🪙
₹1 Revenue reached
🪙 First rupee: design partner paid for the starter plan voluntarily. We were going to give it free — he insisted. Best kind of problem.
💰
₹100 Revenue reached
💰 ₹100 — two more beta founders paying. One said "your leaderboard doubled my signups". That quote is going on the landing page.
💸
₹1,000 Revenue reached
💸 **₹1,000 in revenue in week 3 of paid beta.** 4 customers, 3 on annual. Building in public is working — 40% of signups came from these posts.
Month 1 recap: 6 paying customers, ₹1,400 MRR, and a 12-person waitlist for the founder-friends launch. Next: onboarding video + template gallery.
Got my first design partner: a solo dev launching a browser extension next month. Real stakes now.
