Overview

Startup description
My project is a native iOS & iPadOS education app that solves any math problem from a photo. Students point their camera at a handwritten or printed equation and receive instant AI-powered step-by-step solutions. Launched in October 2024, the app has accumulated 3,890 downloads with 96.3% coming from pure organic App Store Search — with zero paid marketing ever spent. It is localized in 10 languages (English, Arabic, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Japanese, and Korean), making it globally ready from day one.

Key highlights

• 259K App Store impressions (+21.9% growth)
• 3,890 total downloads (+7,670% growth trend)
• 96.3% of downloads from organic App Store Search — exceptional keyword positioning
• $2.94 average revenue per paying user
• 2.6 sessions per active device (strong daily engagement)
• 5.0★ App Store rating
• 10 language localizations — no localization work needed for a buyer
• Available on iPhone, iPad, Mac (M1+), and Apple Vision Pro
• Zero paid acquisition — ever.

Team
Solo-built and operated by one indie developer. Fully autonomous — no support staff, no manual operations. A buyer takes over a complete, self-running asset from day one.

Tech Stack

• Swift / SwiftUI — native iOS/iPadOS frontend
• StoreKit — subscriptions and one-time IAP management
• Vision framework — camera-based math problem scanning
• REST APIs — AI math solving engine
• Firebase — analytics and crash reporting
• Apple App Store — sole distribution channel

Marketing & growth
Every single download came organically — 96.3% via App Store Search, 1.9% App Store Browse. No influencer campaigns, no paid ads, no social media. The app ranks purely on keyword strength for terms. This means a buyer inherits an already-proven SEO foundation with every paid channel completely untapped.

Revenue & profit

• Total proceeds: $159 (Apple net, after 30% cut)
• Gross revenue (pre-Apple cut): ~$227
• ARPU: $2.94 per paying user
• Pricing tiers: Monthly $9.99 · Yearly $11.99–$14.99 · Lifetime $5.99–$24.99
• Margins: ~85%+ (minimal COGS — API costs only)
• MRR estimate: ~$20–30/month current, with clear upside

Return on investment
This app is priced as an early-stage asset with massive growth potential still locked inside it. A buyer running Apple Search Ads on "math solver" and "photo math" — keywords this app already ranks for organically — could scale downloads rapidly. The 10-language localization means Spanish (Mexico, Chile, Colombia already in top 5 markets!), Russian, and French campaigns can launch immediately with zero additional setup. Payback estimate: 12–18 months with active marketing.

Assets included

• Full Xcode source code (Swift/SwiftUI)
• App Store Connect listing — 3,890 downloads, 5.0★, keyword rankings
• All creative assets — icons, screenshots, App Store metadata
• Firebase project + full analytics history
• Version history v1.0 → v1.9 (actively maintained to Jan 2026)
• 30 days post-sale support

Risks

• Low current revenue: The app is early-stage with modest proceeds. Mitigation: the growth signals (259K impressions, +21.9%, organic keyword dominance) show strong product-market fit — revenue follows marketing investment.
• API dependency: AI math solving relies on third-party APIs. Mitigation: providers are commoditized and easily swappable.
• Accuracy: One review flagged wrong answers. Mitigation: upgrading the underlying AI API or adding a verification layer resolves this entirely.

Summary
My project is a live, fully built iOS education app sitting in one of the most evergreen niches imaginable — students always need math help. It has 259K impressions, organic keyword dominance (96.3% search-driven downloads), 10 language localizations, and has never spent a dollar on marketing. A buyer with any paid acquisition budget, YouTube/TikTok presence in education, or an existing app portfolio can unlock significant revenue from day one. This is a rare chance to acquire a turnkey asset in a billion-dollar category at an early-stage price.

Expenses

Gemini API costs: $5.

Business Model

Freemium iOS app monetized through 8 IAP tiers — monthly, yearly, and lifetime one-time purchases. 100% passive via Apple StoreKit. ~85% margins.

Target Audience

Students aged 12–22 solving homework and exam prep. Top markets already proven: USA, Mexico, Russia, Chile, Colombia — Spanish and Russian localizations are already live and converting.

Asking Price Reasoning

Priced as an asset acquisition reflecting the fully built codebase, 10-language localization (normally $5,000–$10,000 to build), established App Store keyword rankings, 3,890 downloads, and 5.0★ rating — all with zero paid marketing ever spent.

Reason for Selling

Solo developer managing a large app portfolio. This app deserves a dedicated owner who can invest in marketing — particularly paid acquisition and social media — which I'm unable to prioritize across multiple products.

Growth Opportunity

Apple Search Ads (untapped), TikTok/YouTube education creators, Android launch (zero Google Play presence), and Spanish/Russian paid campaigns using existing localizations already proven by organic download geography.
