Revone
A competent developer can build a useful personal revenue aggregator (ingest + local UI) in a few weeks, but reproducing the vendor's native macOS polish, packaged app, and ongoing connector maintenance is non-trivial — consider self-hosted analytics projects as starting points.

Not priced
No pricing page we fetched carried a figure, so there is nothing to compare against. The build side is still real.

No published price to break even against.
No open-source build does this yet
Nothing published replaces this one, so a replacement starts from an empty file. Here is what it would have to cover.
What a replacement has to do
- Connect provider APIs, ingest transactions, normalize and store revenue events, surface unified timelines and dashboards in a native UI, and run background sync + notifications.
What it still won’t have
- Polished native macOS packaging and one-click installer
- Ready-made macOS widgets, menu-bar integration and system-level polish
- Ongoing connector maintenance and quick fixes for provider API changes
- The vendor’s branded UI/UX and support
What remains hard
- Product polish and ongoing maintenance

The verdict above measures whether you could build it. This one is only about money.
Runnable build prompt
Build a personal revenue-aggregation app using Tauri (Rust) + React for UI, Node.js server-process for connector tasks, and SQLite for local storage. In scope: OAuth/API connectors for Stripe, Gumroad, Lemon Squeezy, Paddle, RevenueCat, Shopify/WooCommerce; background sync worker, normalization pipeline (transactions, subscriptions, customers), a menu-bar/dashboard UI showing revenue calendar, timeline of orders, country breakdown, simple 3D globe purchase visualization (canvas), native macOS notifications and widgets, manual revenue entry, and import CSV. Out of scope: hosted multi-user backend, analytics at enterprise scale, session replay. Deliverables must include error handling for API failures/rate limits, automated tests for connectors and normalization, README with build and packaging steps, and CI to produce a signed macOS build.

The base comes from the verdict. Everything under it is a check that either happened or did not, and each one is a fact frozen in this record rather than a judgement made at render time - so the same evidence always produces the same number.
