This is biased because there are 14 startups in Security, and two of them make $9M and $4M.

Medians are less sexy but maybe more realistic:

I built a marketplace to buy/sell startups:

πŸ‘‹ Founders list startups with open metrics
πŸ‘€ Buyers make private offers
🀝 TrustMRR connects both

I sold 3 startups in 2023, and it changed my life because it gave me enough bandwidth to focus on the next thing for a few months.

Shipping fast means doing less.

✘ Stop upgrading your dependencies
✘ Stop trying the latest design libraries
✘ Stop using the most recent AI code editor

You can build any startup with the first version of GPT, Bootstrap, and auth@0.0.1.
