An availability-alert site that watches in-store pickup inventory for the iPhone Duo and pushes a notification within seconds when stock appears. Starts at $5/mo, built by one person.
$28.5k/moverified revenue (payment-platform checked; MRR is on paper, first renewals come after 11-22)
- Why it's an opportunity
- Every product launch leaves a crowd of people who'll pay $5 to avoid missing out. The official store can see inventory but doesn't push alerts, so whoever launches first gets the money.
- Why it's blowing up
- Apple doesn't send restock alerts for in-store pickup. A Florida developer launched at midnight on the day 10-23 went on sale and grew it by posting on X about who had gotten one. In 13 days he made $27K. Several copycat sites have already appeared, some copying the title word for word. Subscriptions are still climbing, but daily new revenue is down 80% from the peak, and the author has listed the site for sale at $135K.
