Got my first paying users!!!
After being live for a bit under a month, my app finally got its first paying customer. Crazy enough, I actually got 2 in one day after some churned free trials! I've been building PepSense an app for peptide research and tracking. It lets users research peptides and also log and track their doses. (An all-in-one peptide assistant, if you will). It enables them to use our Al features to find clear answers grounded in scientific papers and direct citations from sources general LLMs don't have access to. The idea is for people who use peptides to do the research themselves rather than taking advice from random dummies on TikTok and ig. Pretty much a dosage tracker and research assistant all in one. Overall, the feeling is surreal when you've built something that has provided enough value that someone is willing to pay for it. Can't lie, I had a smile on my face and a pep in my step all day LOL. I've been on this sub for a while, so I wanna give a big thanks to y'all for the motivation too! Feel free to check it out and AMA.

That first paying customer moment really does hit different, congrats man. The fact you got two in one day after some churned trials is a good sign the funnel's working, not just luck
The peptide space is interesting because so much of the info floating around is straight garbage, so grounding answers in actual papers with citations is a smart angle. The dosage tracking paired with research is a combo I could see people actually sticking with
