How they did it

Vibe-code version 1 in a week in Cursor. The post says not a single line was written by hand.

1. Vibe-code version 1 in a week in Cursor. The post says not a single line was written by hand.
2. Use Supabase, Vercel, Stripe, and Mailgun. Use OpenAI plus Tavily in the product.
3. Move the mobile app to native Swift with RevenueCat and Superwall.
4. Read web cash and mobile cash as two four-week numbers. The headline adds them and calls the sum a month.
5. Inference: four-week cash can exceed MRR when yearly or lifetime charges land in the window. The post does not give the plan mix, so I am not converting $25,500 into MRR.

Steps above are the recorded desk notes for this case.

Copy this prompt

Point your agent at this case.

I am shipping a small consumer app with Cursor. Ask for the one skill the app teaches. Produce a one-week web version (Supabase, host, Stripe, email, one model call) and a native-mobile follow-up (Store billing, paywall). Give me a revenue template with two columns, web and mobile, for the last 28 days, plus a third column I must leave blank until I know the subscription mix: MRR. Do not fill MRR from the 28-day sum.
