Laravel Shift runs solo at more than $50K MRR

Jason McCreary runs Shift alone: developers connect a repository, pay and receive an upgrade pull request in clean atomic commits. In a founder interview, he says revenue is split roughly evenly between one-off purchases and subscriptions, fixed overhead is about $100 a month, and the business has no employees or investors. Early distribution came from Laravel's creator, followed by talks, podcasts, articles and courses. AI and fewer framework changes have slowed growth; all operating figures are founder-reported.
