02 / BUSINESS MODEL

How does it charge?

Pricing model unknown

Free to sign up and use; paid prices not found

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

03 / ACQUISITION

Where do users come from?

Traffic is all direct visits (71.3%) and brand search (28.7%, "retain cards", "retain cards gratuit", "metodo retain"); new users are classified as viral: users can share decks by link and others clone them in one click; the homepage also has a Creator Program. There is no referral or social source data, and ChatGPT brings a small 0.06% of traffic. Returning users come back directly to review on schedule.

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?
  • Are these historical prices still active today? What are the conversion, retention, and fulfillment costs?
  • Is the "Viral" 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.

05 / BUSINESS EVIDENCE
