#1 Jake Glacer (founder), on the Starter Story podcast said on 2026-07-01 · source
Erly is making $50K a month and had three $30K months.
The claim relies solely on Jake Glacer's self-report from a podcast, which is an interested party's account. The App Store listing provides some context but no independent verification of the revenue figures. Given the base rate that most subscription apps do not reach such high MRR, and the lack of independent evidence, the support for the claim is insufficient. To raise the level, we would need independent revenue estimates or primary financial records.
