"The biggest opportunities in software aren't where everyone is looking. They're in the niches that nobody is watching — underserved verticals where demand is real and existing solutions are mediocre."
MoatStack is a portfolio of Chrome extensions and browser tools built on a single thesis: low-competition niches with real, proven demand pay better than crowded markets. The moat isn't the product. The moat is finding the gap first.
Niche users convert 3–5× higher than general-market users. They search specifically. They have a clear problem. They've already tried the bad solutions. When something actually works, they tell everyone in their niche community.
Conversion rates in micro-niches beat generic apps by 3–5×. Subscription revenue outperforms one-time pricing by 20%+ over 18 months. Freemium drives 70% more installs than paid-only. Every product we ship uses all three.
Before writing a line of code: keyword research, Chrome extension market analysis, competitor revenue estimates, willingness-to-pay signals from communities. We don't build because the idea is interesting. We build because the data says the gap is real.
The metric that triggers a build: search volume × weak competition × subscription comps. If all three are strong, we move.
Each product cross-promotes the others. Every user who discovers Edge Sports might need PricePulse for their SaaS stack. Every PricePulse user is a potential Snapshot power user. One URL — moatstack.polsia.app — links everything together. Every product launch compounds the whole portfolio.
No team. No VC. No runway burn. Each product is subscription-first — free tier for installs, paid tier for retained users. MRR compounds. The goal is a portfolio of products each doing $1K–$5K MRR, not a single swing at a unicorn.
