Why We Picked This

isMalicious generates $2,075/mo revenue with an exceptional 95% profit margin and a 1.48x annual profit multiple—well below typical SaaS multiples and suggesting strong unit economics. Platform-verified financials and 19 months of operating history provide solid confidence. The security intelligence niche addresses a durable market need, though buyer should confirm customer stickiness, churn, and whether revenue is recurring or one-time service-based.

👍

Strengths

  • ✓Verified platform financials with 100% data quality score and no warnings
  • ✓Exceptional 95% profit margin indicates efficient operations and strong pricing power
  • ✓Attractive 1.48x annual profit multiple—substantially below market rates (typical SaaS 3-4x)
  • ✓Established 19-month operating history in a high-value security/threat-intelligence niche
🔎

Details to confirm

  • •Confirm revenue composition: proportion of recurring (subscription/API fees) versus one-time (consulting, licenses) to assess durability
  • •Request customer count, average contract value, and churn/retention metrics to validate the recurring-revenue sustainability
  • •Clarify the role and dependency of third-party integrations (STIX/TAXII, OpenCTI, MCP server) and any integration maintenance burden
  • •Verify whether the $2,075/mo revenue base has grown, remained flat, or declined over the past 6+ months to understand trajectory

Buying isMalicious purchases verified recurring revenue ($2,075/mo, 95% margins) and 19 months of paying customer traction in a specialized threat-intelligence domain—assets that are difficult to replicate quickly. A solo founder could build a threat-intelligence API wrapper and SIEM integration toolset using Python, FastAPI, and open-source threat-feed libraries (MISP, YARA) in 8 weeks for $8–18K in AI subscription and hosting costs, but would lack: (1) the existing customer base and revenue stream, (2) operational knowledge of enterprise security workflows, (3) integration maturity with production SIEM/SOAR platforms, and (4) market validation. The 1.48x multiple is attractive enough to justify acquisition over build, provided churn and customer concentration are confirmed to be acceptable.

Cash estimate includes the AI tools, APIs and infrastructure needed for a solo founder to recreate the software. Build time is informational and lightly weighted. The verdict is driven mainly by customers, users, verified earnings, retention, distribution, brand, data and operating history.
