“Are you profitable?” is one of those semi-snarky, sophomoric questions I used to ask people before I had actually built anything
Being profitable is extremely stupid in an environment of growth and accessible capital, though these conditions are sometimes misjudged
I’ll just leave this here.

Community note
The linked site lists substantially outdated cumulative revenue figures for AI labs such as Anthropic ($22B since 2021) and DeepSeek ($0.2B), which lag recent reports of far higher current annualized run rates.

This could probably use some in-app purchases @shl
Big release for the IRS mobile app! You can now:

More features to come!

based on purely public info, this disparity is heavily driven by a few frontier labs
but it really matters that those labs are in the US and not the EU!

Stripe claimable sandboxes are very cool!
You can now use them in RevenueCat to kick the tires on some RC+Stripe features before committing to setting up a full Stripe account.

If you're using @RevenueCat on @trust_mrr...
You can now upload an API key instead of the Verified Metrics URLs.
Your iOS/Android app page will show
- All-time revenue (not just the last 30 days)
- MRR all-time
- and churn!
This is possible since RevenueCat released the Charts API earlier this year.
If you've already listed, you can migrate directly from your dashboard > My Startups > Payment Provider.

It’s really kind of a miracle that inference is so cheap. You could imagine a reality where a query costs as much as the training and we’d have AI but effectively it’s unviable as a technology.
