Where it sits in the data
ThemeSelection's $25K a month is higher than 76% 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, this needs real work. The buyer is a designer, developer, agency, or creative building websites and applications, and demand must come through communities, search, recommendations, or direct outreach.
The difficult parts are keeping products current across frameworks, documenting each release, answering support questions, and competing for attention in a crowded template market. No specific regulation is identified on the pages provided.
Verdict: Needs real work.
One thing to take from it
A focused product range can address one buyer across several parts of the workflow: coded dashboards, designed versions, UI kits, SaaS boilerplates, and free components.
