Bear Metricsby Josh Pigford
Josh Pigford built Bear Metrics in just 7-8 days in November 2013 to solve his own pain point: tracking key SaaS metrics from Stripe data. He launched directly on Twitter without a landing page or beta, sold his first $250/month customer within 8 days, and grew to $14k MRR in 6 months. By 2017, Bear Metrics had reached $70k MRR through a combination of strategic partnerships (like Buffer), transparency (public dashboards), and content marketing, while raising $800k from the Stripe Platform Fund.
