What this evidence does not show yet

To reach Payment-backed we still need:

1 more independent post(s) — we have 4
a first-hand payment statement — either someone naming what they already pay, or 2 more statement(s) with a specific amount they would pay (we have 0)
renewed mentions — the recent trend is below the promotion bar

No first-hand payment statement is on record here, so this page carries no pricing suggestion. A price with no payment evidence behind it is a guess wearing a number.

Scoring summary

Evidence confidence = strength × evidence volume × source diversity × payment × competition × trend × 10. Counts use independent content items; only first-hand pain, current spend, explicit willingness to pay and concrete feature requests affect the score. Repeated posts by one author are discounted. Scoring and status changes follow deterministic rules.

“Payment-backed” means first-hand payment evidence exists in the record. It does not mean the business is worth building. “Fading” is a recency tag shown alongside any evidence level, not a lower level. Read the full methodology.
