For context: across 10,150 products listing verified revenue on TrustMRR, the median makes about $30 a month and about 5% make more than $8k (analysis, Sept 2026). The odds above assume the founder conditions below are met and the narrowed version is built, so they sit well above that all-comers rate. Why.
How many months at the plan’s pace
At $30/month per customer and 4% monthly churn, adding the customers the plan needs for its month-24 checkpoint. Change any of it in the what-if model.
| MRR | ~15 hrs/week | Full-time |
|---|---|---|
| $1k | 4 mo | 2 mo |
| $3k | 12 mo | 7 mo |
| $5k | 24 mo | 13 mo |
| $10k | not reached | 3 yr 2 mo |
| $20k | not reached | not reached |
| $50k | not reached | not reached |
This works only if you…
1. Warm access to dentists(missing it: odds × 0.6)
You can get 15 dental clinic owners in one city to talk to you within 2 weeks: a dentist in the family, a dental-supply or dental-lab contact, or a clinic you already serve.
2. WhatsApp Cloud API skill(missing it: odds × 0.6)
You can onboard a clinic's own number (embedded signup, templates, webhooks) without reselling a third-party provider's platform. If you can't, the margin and the product both belong to someone else.
3. Sell before you build(missing it: odds × 0.6)
At least 10 clinics pay for a 30-day pilot run by hand (WhatsApp Business app plus a shared sheet) before you write product code. At ~15 hrs/week, at least 6 of those hours go to clinic visits and calls.
