French developer Stephen Zambaux, CTO of MailTracker and co-founder of Podawaa, coded a SaaS over a single weekend and later resold it for 20,000 EUR (about $21k). He told the story on the French podcast Du code et du cash; the product name was not disclosed.
The $21,000 sale price puts it in the upper half of the 547 deals with a disclosed price here, where the median is $21,000. Most indie acquisitions cluster well under the headline numbers founders read about, which is exactly why a real distribution is more useful than an average.
This database tracks 324 SaaS exits, and the ones that disclosed a price sold at a median of $18,000. Category matters more than founders expect: buyers apply different discount rates to a content business, a mobile app and a B2B tool even at identical revenue.
