02 / BUSINESS MODEL

How does it charge?

one-time

No available pricing data. Checkout traffic and revenue records do not substitute for pricing evidence.

The above describes historical pricing. Check official website for current prices.

03 / ACQUISITION

Where do users come from?

Direct 45.8%, search 40.7%, referral 8.1%; brand keywords 78.3%, non-brand about 8.1% ("phoenix anime convention"); social comes from Facebook and Meetup. Traffic concentrates around the convention dates (September 4-7), and past attendees return every year.

Channel share, initial acquisition, and growth drivers are distinct; correlation does not imply proven causation.

04 / YOUR NEXT QUESTION

What remains to be verified?

The following are research questions, not established market opportunities.

  • What do target users actually pay for? Is there direct user feedback or paid interview evidence?
  • What packages and prices are sold today? Verify pricing before assuming reproducibility.
  • Is the "Other" channel still viable? What resources do indie devs need to test it?
  • Whose needs are competitors failing to meet? Find specific evidence before deciding on your angle.
