Postiz

● VerifiedMRR

TL;DR

  • Figure: $270,432 MRR (MRR · 15 Oct 2026 · Stripe-verified (TrustMRR))
  • Proof level: Verified. Revenue comes from Stripe through TrustMRR (owner-authorised API key), synced on 15 Oct 2026. Month-over-month growth is steady and the founder's own posts are consistent with the provider data. Figures are gross revenue, before LLM/API and hosting costs.
  • Our verdict (5/10, opinion): The cleanest proof in our set: fresh Stripe data, steady growth and founder claims that match. The pattern (open source as top of funnel, paid cloud) is repeatable, but it took ~2 years of strong engineering and community work, and social scheduling is crowded.

Agent blueprint

Our suggestion — not how the founder did it

  1. Step 1

    Builder agent

    Maintains the open-source scheduler and ships integrations

  2. Step 2

    Community agent

    Triages GitHub issues and answers self-hosters

  3. Step 3

    Growth agent

    Drafts build-in-public posts and changelog updates for approval

  4. Step 4

    Support agent

    Handles cloud-customer tickets and billing questions

Human in charge

A person approves money, public posts and key decisions. We don't estimate how much human work this saves.

Agentic-ness today (our estimate): 3/5 · Difficulty: Hard

Our take (opinion)

  1. Pick a tool category with a big self-hosting/OSS audience (schedulers, analytics, forms).
  2. Ship a solid open-source version and grow GitHub stars and contributors.
  3. Offer a paid hosted cloud with a trial and simple monthly pricing.
  4. Add AI/agent features and integrations so AI assistants can use the product.
  5. Build in public and post revenue milestones.
  • Skills: Strong engineering, OSS community building
  • Audience needed: Helpful, not required — OSS can be the audience

Risks & limits

  • Social-platform API changes can break core features.
  • Many competitors (Buffer, Typefully and others).
  • Gross revenue only: LLM, hosting and fee costs are not shown.
  • TrustMRR shows revenue growing; fast growth may not persist.

Our verdict

Editorial opinion

5/10

Replicability today: 5/10. The cleanest proof in our set: fresh Stripe data, steady growth and founder claims that match. The pattern (open source as top of funnel, paid cloud) is repeatable, but it took ~2 years of strong engineering and community work, and social scheduling is crowded. (Editorial opinion.)
