See the landscape.
Everything on sale, anonymised, by asking price, revenue, age and owner hours. Combine bands to see how common that mix is. Buying, it shows how much there is to choose from. Selling, it shows how crowded your corner is.
Indiemaker is brand new. There is already a lot on the shelf and we are only getting started: new listings arrive every week, and the numbers fill in as owners answer.

Banded viewComparable, not just browsable.
Every asset uses the same numbers, the same fields and the same checks. That common language is the product.

Pick two rows and read them against each other.
The table above is the market with one row per asset. This is what happens when you choose two of those rows: the same fields, in the same order, in the same units, with the source of every number stated beside it. Nothing is reformatted to flatter either one.

Experimental · in developmentWhat if the listing didn't disappear when it sold?
Today a sold project vanishes and takes its price with it. A record that survives the sale would be anonymised, the way our market data already is.
- Mar 2024Built and shipped by first ownerOwner 1 · independent developer, side project
- Jan 2026Listed at $2,500$180 monthly revenue · 1.2× · 3 hrs a week
- Feb 2026Under offerTwo offers, 19 days on the platform
- Mar 2026Transferred at $2,300Domain, repo, billing, analytics, customer data · 11 days end to end
- NowHeld by owner 2. Not for sale.Record stays open. Revenue updates optional.
Concept only, with illustrative figures. Nothing on the platform works this way today.
- ComparablesA closed transfer would be a real price a real person paid. That is what the next valuation could sit on, instead of an asking price nobody accepted.
- ProvenanceWho has held it, for how long, and what it was doing under each of them. An asset on its third owner is a different proposition from one on its first.
- Valuation historyAsked, offered, accepted. The gap between those three numbers is the most useful thing in this market and nobody publishes it.
- ResaleWhen the second owner is done, the record would already be written. Listing again takes minutes because the history is the listing.
- 01 OfferA price both sides accept, made and answered on the platform.
- 02 TermsWhat is included, what is not, and how long the owner stays reachable. In writing.
- 03 ChecklistAccess, domain, billing and the asset itself move one at a time; the buyer confirms each; the money is released at the end.
Would a permanent record change how you buy or sell?
One click, no email. We are asking before we build, not after.
Who it is for
The same asset is worth two very different things.
One person owns something they lost interest in eleven months ago. Another would pay to skip the eleven months of building it.
- The person who built itStopped working on it eleven months ago. It is worth very little to them now.
- The person who would otherwise build itEighteen months of evenings, saved. It is worth a great deal to them.
- Every price in between works for both of themThat gap is the market, and until now there has been no clean way to meet inside it.
If you built it
You stopped working on it a year ago.
It still bills. You still pay the hosting. Putting it on record takes about twenty minutes, and the fields we ask for are the same ones a new owner was going to ask for anyway.
List your projectIf you want to own one
Skip the eighteen months of building.
Own something with customers, a stack, and a revenue history you can read before you commit. Set a budget and a type, and matching assets come to you.

The Digest
The week's best listings, in one email.
The best, the featured, and the new and noteworthy listings, once a week, normally on a Thursday. No course, no upsell.
Most projects never find a second owner.
Not because they have no value. Because software was built to be launched, not transferred.
Indiemaker is the missing infrastructure.
