GainFrame: a solo dad with a day job reaches $2,335 verified MRR

Michael Rode runs GainFrame alone beside a full-time job. The iOS subscription app estimates body fat and muscle scores from progress photos, tracks change and adds an AI action plan. TrustMRR read RevenueCat data on November 7 and verified $2,335 MRR, 462 active subscriptions, $2,381 in the last 30 days and $19,883 all-time; subscription pricing was not disclosed. After spending $5,674 on Apple Search Ads, TikTok and Reddit and finding payer acquisition cost above lifetime value, he stopped paid ads and shifted to 141 SEO posts, 11 free tools, TikTok and Instagram comic carousels, and a fitness-creator programme. Platform dependence and continuous content production remain constraints.
