How it makes money. Subscriptions and lifetime one-time purchases
Claimed. $7,591 in the last 28 days; MRR: $1,295; Active subscriptions: 258
OP provides specific recent revenue figures, MRR, active subscriptions, an app name on the App Store, and technical details about on-device inference; commenters raised reasonable skepticism that much of the reported 28-day revenue is from one-time lifetime purchases rather than recurring revenue but did not allege fabrication or self-promotion.
“$1,295 MRR against $7,591 in 28 days means roughly $6.3k of that month was lifetime unlocks, which dont repeat. So next month starts from $1,295, not from $7.6k. Calling the offline engine the interesting part is a bit of a dodge when the whole month rides on one-time purchases.” ▲ 80
“Offline speech-to-text is bundling Whisper and drawing a progress bar. Which part was the hard one exactly?” ▲ 30
“Using a smaller model would’ve made it much easier, but I was stubborn about keeping the best model and optimizing around it instead. My target was to make it usable from iPhone 12 and up” ▲ 25
