Indie hackers / solo-founders running SaaS on top of Stripe want to know their key numbers (MRR, churn, LTV, runway) but existing options sit at two extremes:

• Stripe’s built-in ‘Revenue & Reports’ tab – too shallow (no cohorts, no runway, no cash-burn)
• Heavyweight finance suites – ChartMogul ($100+/m), Baremetrics ($179/m), SaaSOptics (mid-market, sales-led, $500+/m) – overkill in features, price and onboarding friction. A “Stripe-first, indie-priced” dashboard could fill that gap.

Existing Solutions / Competitors

1. Baremetrics – the indie favourite historically; now $179/m minimum; feature rich, but many indie founders feel it’s overpriced after its 2020 price hike (multiple HN & IH threads complaining).
