marclou shared a revenue screenshot of MailCheap: ARR grew from $7,836 to $21,600 in 6 days (+175.65%).
MailCheap positions itself as 75-83% cheaper than beehiiv, Mailchimp and Ghost, charging from $19/month based on emails actually sent rather than subscriber count. After being told 'no one serious will use it' and 'you can't vibe code a profitable SaaS,' the founder replies: 'Do what you can't.'
