Spent the last few months building a research database of successful indie hackers for Yolidue's in-app content. Real revenue, timelines, stacks, marketing playbooks. Just crossed 100 profiles.
Going in, I expected to find some hidden tactic. A specific channel, a pricing trick, something you could screenshot and turn into a Twitter thread.
Didn't find one. What I found instead was almost boring: the founders who crossed from zero to "this is now my income" all have a daily cadence they don't break. Levels publishes. Marc Lou ships. DHH writes. Not weekly, not when inspired. Daily.
The tactics varied wildly across all 100. The cadence didn't.
Most indie hackers don't fail from bad ideas. They quit too early. Yolidue is an AI coaching companion that keeps you shipping every day. 10 specialized coaches. 3-minute daily check-ins. Honest feedback, not cheerleading. $9.99 once. No subscription.
