Indie dev open-sources revenue data on 742 real monetized products with growth playbooks

Indie developer yihui open-sourced a GitHub repo distilling BizPeel's database of 742 real revenue-generating products, organized by verified revenue band, growth trend, and niche, with weekly revenue updates planned.
The top-100 MRR list features products like Postiz, 1Lookup, Rezi, Cometly, and AEO Engine, all at ≥$100K MRR, each paired with acquisition breakdowns: converting users via free tools, growing with SEO and cold email, and turning consulting into high-ticket offers. Optional paid reports cover traffic sources and conversion tactics in depth.
The author credits two years of watching indie hackers build in public on Twitter for inspiring his own full-time switch, hoping the dataset helps others 'see it before believing it'.
