Orel Zilberman
- Solo SaaS Founder
- $108,000 per year (solo)
Orel Zilberman quit a 6-figure dev job to build SaaS products full-time. Then spent 600 days shipping things nobody wanted.
A habit app. A Goodreads clone. A billing tool. Each one followed the same script 
Build it. Launch it. Hear crickets. Move on.
The flaw never changed – he built what he thought was cool, for an audience he didn’t have.
What finally worked was almost embarrassingly simple. Orel was already active on Substack, where creators kept complaining they had no easy way to schedule their Notes 
So he built exactly that. Nothing else. As he puts it…
For the first time, I didn’t start with an idea I thought was cool. I started with a problem people were already talking about.
That tool is WriteStack. A year in, it’s doing over $9,000/month from 350 paying customers – run entirely solo 
He even shares the full breakdown: around $2K/month in costs, leaving roughly $6,500/month in his pocket.
What’s the complaint you hear every day on a platform you already live on?
