SoundboardGuys: $9.1K a month, self-reported, free soundboards

SoundboardGuys is a free library for meme audio, sound effects, and custom soundboards. Its $9.1K a month was reported by the founder in an interview (not independently verified), as of September 12th, 2026.

What it actually sells

SoundboardGuys sells free meme audio, sound-effect buttons, prank sounds, and fully custom soundboards. Users can create, name, save, and share custom soundboards with friends.

Sounds play instantly in the browser. Users can browse categories, search keywords, explore trending and popular sounds, and use favorites and custom soundboards across web, iOS, and Android.

How it charges

Every sound is free to play and download. The site states that there are no premium tiers for basic access, so users can grab sounds without paying for basic access.

Where customers come from

The site names content creators, gamers, streamers, and Discord communities as the audience. It says they rely on the platform every day, and describes a library with more than 10,000 sound buttons and hundreds of thousands of monthly users.

SoundboardGuys has mobile apps for iOS and Android. The site also highlights community-created soundboards, user-generated sound uploads, and the community library as visible distribution surfaces.

What stands out

The product combines instant browser playback, free downloads, custom soundboards, favorites, and sharing in one site. Registered users can upload clips to the community library, while custom soundboards and favorites sync across web, iOS, and Android.

SoundboardGuys says it has operated since 2018. The site reports hundreds of thousands of monthly users and more than 10,000 sound buttons.

Where it sits in the data

SoundboardGuys's $9.1K a month is higher than 65% of the 6,604 projects with founder-reported monthly revenue in our dataset; the median across them is $2K. Snapshot: 2026-09-30. The dataset only covers founders who chose to publish their numbers, so it leans toward businesses that work; use it for scale, not as an average.

Currency

All figures are in US dollars as published. A rough yuan or euro conversion is not applied here because prices, taxes and acquisition costs differ by country.

Could you build something like this?

In my view, demand would come from people who need quick audio for content, gaming, streaming, or community conversations. The buyer is the user who wants a sound immediately, while distribution would need to come through search, sharing, creator communities, and mobile surfaces.

The hard parts are catalog organisation, instant playback, cross-device syncing, uploads, moderation, and support for a large user-contributed library. Competition would matter in search and community distribution, while copyright and content moderation would add regulatory and operational work.

Verdict: Needs real work.

One thing to take from it

The product shape is a broad free sound library with browser playback, user-created boards, community uploads, and mobile access. Those are the clearest elements shown on the site.
