Where it sits in the data

Stripo's $85K a month is higher than 87% 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?

My view is that demand would come from marketers, email creators, designers, small teams, and agencies that need to produce email templates through code-based or no-code workflows. Distribution would need to connect with the same audiences through useful templates, an editor demo, signup offers, integrations, and plugin-based product distribution.

Building this would need substantial work across email rendering, testing, collaboration, exports, integrations, and support. The pages do not describe a light-weight product. Email privacy, deliverability, customer support, and competition with other email tools would also need to be handled as part of the product and operating requirements.

Verdict: Hard to replicate.

One thing to take from it

The product shape combines an editor, templates, testing, collaboration, and exports in one email workflow. The visible audience includes both skilled designers and people who are new to email production.
