Sweat Equity and True ROI Tracker
A dashboard that integrates with IDEs, GitHub, and Stripe to measure exactly how many hours go into a project versus the revenue it generates. It helps founders calculate their true hourly rate.
これが重要な理由
You are juggling a full-time job while trying to launch multiple side projects on nights and weekends. You celebrate when your app makes its first fifty dollars, but you have a nagging suspicion about the underlying math. Traditional time trackers are disconnected from your payment gateway, making it impossible to see the whole picture. When you finally manually tally up the hundreds of hours spent coding, debugging, and marketing, you realize you are working for pennies an hour. You need an automated system that connects your code commits to your bank account so you know exactly which projects deserve your ongoing effort.

失敗する可能性がある理由
自己反論 — 最も重要な信頼のシグナル
- 1The target audience of indie makers is notoriously frugal and accustomed to free tools.
- 2The data might be too depressing; seeing a 'true hourly wage' of $0.50 might demotivate users, causing them to churn.
- 3Accurately guessing hours worked strictly from git commit history is technically flawed and often undercounts marketing efforts.
エビデンスの概要
AIがこのインサイトをどのように統合したか — 逐語的な引用はありません
Discussions revealed a strong interest in understanding the real labor costs behind independent software businesses. Users asked for breakdowns of total hours invested over specific timeframes and noted that current time-tracking methods fail to provide accurate overall assessments. There is a clear curiosity around quantifying the efficiency and financial viability of different technical stacks and business ideas.
