▶ RECURRING REVENUE

Build a Micro-SaaS.
Earn While You Sleep.

Freelancing trades time for money. A Micro-SaaS trades a product for recurring revenue — the same customers paying you every month, automatically.

// WHAT IS MICRO-SAAS

Small Product. Recurring Revenue. No Employees.

A Micro-SaaS is a small web-based tool solving one specific problem for a specific audience — charged monthly. Unlike freelancing, you build it once and earn indefinitely.

With Claude, you can build fully functional web tools without a dev team. A 21-year-old with strong prompting skills and a real problem to solve is all you need.

10 customers x $29/month = $290 MRR. 100 = $2,900. 1,000 = $29,000. That's the math.
