A recurring pain point on r/indiehackers is that founders change their pricing 3-5 times in the first year but keep no structured record of what they changed, why they changed it, and what happened to MRR, churn, and conversion rate afterward. RetroRevenue is a lightweight decision journal specifically for pricing changes — you log each experiment with context, attach a before/after MRR snapshot, and over time build an auditable history of what your pricing decisions actually produced. This turns scattered Notion notes and memory into a compounding pricing intelligence asset.

Reddit: As more founders use Stripe and Lemon Squeezy with built-in analytics, the raw data exists but no tool connects pricing decision context to outcome data in a human-readable audit trail.

A form where you log a pricing change (what changed, why, hypothesis), manually enter MRR before/after at 30 days, and view a simple timeline of all past experiments with outcomes.
AI analyzes your pricing change history and surfaces patterns — e.g., 'your annual plan discounts consistently underperform monthly upgrades' — as a periodic digest.
The market is small — only founders who have already iterated on pricing will feel the pain acutely, which limits top-of-funnel volume.
Likely buyers are founders, operators, and small teams with a recurring business process. Start with Indie SaaS founders who have been running their product for 6+ months and have already iterated on pricing at least once and validate whether this can replace a spreadsheet, manual review, or consultant workflow.
Find the first 10 users by searching for recent complaints around "SaaS pricing" in Reddit, developer communities, GitHub issues, and niche Slack or Discord groups. Offer a concierge version first: manually solve the workflow for a few users, then automate only the repeated steps.
