Realistic income
TrustMRR (checked Nov 9, 2026) shows about $92 in Stripe-verified revenue over its tracked history, and no recurring monthly line right now. This is one operator’s result, often after months or years of work, and doesn’t predict yours. Check the live listing — numbers change.
Risks
- Verified all-time sales are still tiny (about $92).
- Apple and other Mac apps already ship dictation features.
- One-time pricing means each buyer pays only once.
- Startup cost and time to first dollar are not disclosed.
