Odds of reaching each MRR level by month 24

Odds of reaching each MRR level by month 24, at about 15 hours a week and full-time, with the founder conditions met. Judgment estimates, not statistical probabilities.

$1kReaching $1k MRR by month 24 at about 15 hours a week: ≈ 40 in 100 (40%, judgment estimate).Reaching $1k MRR by month 24 at full-time: ≈ 55 in 100 (55%, judgment estimate).

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 $20/month per customer and 5% monthly churn, adding the customers the plan needs for its month-24 checkpoint. Change any of it in the what-if model.

This works only if you…

  1. 1. You can build and maintain an MV3 extension yourself(missing it: odds × 0.65)

    TypeScript, content scripts, DOM selectors that survive UI changes, and a daily breakage check. If you hire the build, every KDP page change becomes a paid emergency.

  2. 2. Access to 20 publishers with 20+ titles before building(missing it: odds × 0.65)

    Ideally you publish on KDP yourself, with several titles, so you have a real Bookshelf to test on and credibility in author groups.

  3. 3. A 24-hour fix promise for breakages, for 24 months(missing it: odds × 0.65)

    When KDP changes a page, the extension breaks for every customer at once. The fix has to ship within a day, every time, whatever your hours per week available.
