Ask HN: One-person SaaS apps that are profitable?

Does a 2 person SaaS count?

We launched Cronitor.io here on HN over 11 years ago and we’re thriving.

The first 6 years were part time, nights and weekends, while we both had kids and full time jobs. In 2020 we quit our jobs (and took a huge pay cut for a while) to go full time on it. Eleven years later I still love building dev tools.

This looks great, thanks for sharing! I run a 1-person SaaS on the side and this would help me a lot with keeping it running. Glad to hear that you are able to full time on it.

Thank you!! Yes we use Cronitor extensively ourselves (dogfooding!) and it’s saved us many many times.
