About the startup
Each row is an extension people already installed - then it died. You get historical users, rebuild difficulty, why it died, who competes now, and a step-by-step rebuild plan. We collected 9,656 EXPIRED Chrome extensions, meaning they no longer exist (for various reasons, like Manifest V3), but the userbase is still there. We researched each of those extensions (user count, ratings, reason for expiration, competitor analysis, key sellings points, etc. (15 data points!) ). Also included: guides to rebuild them, monetization strategies, and much more. Welcome to micro-SaaS paradise for indie makers and solopreneurs! Relaunch notes: I've been thinking about how to promote Chrome Goldmine better. So here's an experiment. This is a link to a SAMPLE of the actual Notion database and many manuals & guides that are in the product, so you can get a feel for the amount of information actually included: https://r4fken.notion.site/3194fef352a880c0995aebcde82375d Thanks for reading, Raf
