200,000 Downloads From Solving His Own Problem

This Norwegian developer was tired of logging into Garmin's clunky dashboard just to check his smartwatch app downloads.

So he built a quick solution for himself - a widget that showed his stats right on his home screen.

Then he had a lightbulb moment: "If I can scrape Garmin's data, why not ANY website?"

4 years later, AnyTracker has 200,000 downloads and generates $800/month.

When he launched it as a general "track anything" tool, users had other plans... they overwhelmingly wanted price tracking.

Instead of fighting it, he leaned in.

The lesson? Your biggest frustrations might be your biggest opportunities.

From zero to $80M exit in 6 months. Solo.

This founder walked away from a $130M funding round in 2021.

Then launched Base44 - an AI tool that lets anyone build apps without code.

Six months later: $3.5M ARR, 300K+ users, fully bootstrapped.

This week: Wix acquired it for $80M.

He did it all alone. No co-founder, no employees, no team.

While most SaaS companies dream of hitting $1M ARR in their first year, Maor tripled that in half the time.

The lesson? Sometimes the best startup playbook is throwing out the playbook entirely.
