Where to sell a small software project quickly
Standard acquisition platforms like Acquire take too long or demand a strict Stripe revenue history. This prevents founders from quickly selling whole assets based on their codebase, traffic, or domain when the workload gets out of hand. As a result, they are stuck maintaining small projects they no longer have time for, without knowing where to list them.
