Where Should Founders Show Revenue?

There are great services built by great founders out there, helping startups grow sales, sell their business, and sometimes show off.

One of them is TrustMRR.

The whole idea got attention after a tweet from Levelsio complaining about fake MRR screenshots on X. Stripe responded, saying they were working on it. Then Marc Lou saw the wave and, like always, shipped fast.

He took a product he had already built before, moved it to a new domain as a standalone product, and ever since, TrustMRR has been making around $20k to $30k per month.

What TrustMRR does well

TrustMRR is focused on one clear thing: verified startup revenue.

That matters because fake screenshots are easy. Real revenue is harder to prove.

What Bowora does differently

We provide the same service on Bowora. You can add your MRR to Bowora as well, and all major payment providers are supported.

You can show your revenue publicly on the Bowora MRR Board.

But Bowora is not only about MRR. It is also a place to list your startup, get discovered, collect reviews, get stars, and show if you are raising, open to acquisition, or focused on growth.

Sharing $0 MRR is still powerful

Sharing MRR is very strong, even when you make $0 per month.

Most founders make $0 per month in the beginning. All founders start at $0 per month, no matter how big they are now.

Building is not for everyone. Building in public is even more difficult because you realize how much people do not care about you and your product.

Until you pass a certain threshold and become difficult to ignore.

Which one should you use?

Use TrustMRR if you want a focused product for verified MRR.

Use Bowora if you want to show your MRR and get more visibility for your startup.

As a founder, any channel that helps you get visibility is important. You should use it.

You never know when and where your next customer, buyer, or investor will see you, your product, and your potential.
