Platform for selling digital products (e-books, Notion templates, Lightroom presets, courses) — minimal setup.
Sahil Lavingia (early Pinterest employee) started it as a student project. Famously minimalist creation flow — upload the file, set a price, get the link. Lavingia is unusually public about company financials and wrote "The Minimalist Entrepreneur". The fee jumped in 2024 from 3.5–9 % to a flat 10 % (+ Stripe), triggering community unease. Competition: Lemon Squeezy, Payhip, Stan Store.
