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.

This works only if you…
1. A DME insider. This is the moat and the main risk(missing it: odds × 0.4)
You, a co-founder or a paid advisor must have run operations, the warehouse or accreditation at a DME supplier (or worked as an ACHC/TJC/CHAP accreditation consultant), and be able to get 10 supplier owners or compliance leads on the phone within 30 days. Without this, multiply every recommended figure by ~0.4, and the answer becomes a plain No.
2. Sell before building(missing it: odds × 0.7)
5 suppliers paying ≥$99/month for a hands-on "we set up your fleet log and survey binder" service before any product code is written.
3. HIPAA basics before the first patient record(missing it: odds × 0.7)
hosting under a business associate agreement (BAA), a signed BAA with each customer, and cyber insurance. Delivery records hold patient names and addresses, which is protected health information.
4. Hours per week available, stated honestly,(missing it: odds × 0.7)
with at least 5 of them as live calls in US business hours. Owners and compliance leads buy from a person who answers the phone.
