🦄 Startups.fyi Spotlight 💰
1. The Trailblazer 🚀
✅ (pre-revenue) 🧐An easy-to-use end-to-end deal-sourcing platform for startup investors. This tool expands your deal flow and processes all your inbound requests while providing you with pre-researched deals that match your investment thesis. Get access for free!
2. The Quick Brew ⚡️
🎯 One of my best finds ever. This tool is not a typical NextJS boilerplate. It comes with a drag-and-drop builder to make the complete process as easy as possible while still offering prebuilt UI components, ready-to-use NextJS boilerplate codes & AI integration to make your app Production seamless.
This tool was launched in 2024 by a solo founder and makes $200/month.
3. The Game Changer 🔥
🤖 What if there was a dynamic workforce management solution designed to streamline business operations and enhance productivity? This cutting-edge platform offers real-time insights into employee activities, project progress, and task management.
It was launched in 2018 by the solo founder and this tool makes $300/month.
4. The Power Play 🎯
💻 Here is an easy-to-use tool that seamlessly integrates with Slack, ensuring compliance with the latest EU directives and GDPR standards. I think this may actually be a useful tool, and they have a free plan to get started with.
This tool was launched in 2022 also and already makes $800/month.
5. The Crowd Favorite 🌟
💡 This is not just a suite of AI tools, but a creative partner for design inspiration. Organize your design process and eliminate the daunting blank page with clever recommendations and useful visuals. You might never need to hire a designer again.
This tool makes $1,000 per month for the solo founder.
