Bro went from three guys in a basement to $1.5M a year with two app ideas. Meet Kyle. He built Cardstock (a sports card value scanner) and Scanémon (same thing but for Pokémon). Together they do $120K/month. Cardstock: ~15K active subs, $75K MRR, 13K downloads/month Scanémon: launched in 2025, already 3,400 subs and $17K MRR MVP for Scanémon? Built in a single day with Cursor’s agent The wild part: he didn’t chase trends. He just looked at his own hobby (collecting cards), noticed there was no app for it, and built one for himself.
