Republiclabs.ai once made $28k a month ($15k MRR) before shutting down over Stripe
The author says their now-closed SaaS Republiclabs.ai once generated $28k per month, $15k of it pure recurring MRR, almost all from organic SEO. The author attributes the shutdown to Stripe and is rebuilding the same AI SEO agent as RankReactor.ai. The bare $ currency is unconfirmed.
The story
In the headline of a long post, the author says their SaaS once generated $28k per month, $15k of it pure recurring MRR, almost entirely from organic search (SEO). The body attributes this revenue to Republiclabs.ai, which the author has closed, and explains that the agent system finds keywords and opportunities, writes and QA-checks content, monitors performance and keeps revising until pages rank.
The author says building the system took six months, after five years of doing SEO manually. The shutdown reason is a single line: Stripe randomly tries to kill your business, with details left for another post. The shutdown date and the as-of date for the revenue are undisclosed.
The author is turning the same agent into a fuller product, RankReactor.ai, and is publishing the workflow for free. The author names dataforseo.com as their SERP data API, and the workflow also mentions Google Search Console, Linear or a similar ticketing tool, screenshotone.com and PostHog. The historical revenue figures are attributed only to Republiclabs.ai, not to RankReactor.ai, which has not claimed revenue.
The only reply in the thread was someone else asking for a job; the author added no further revenue or shutdown details. The standalone article link returned 404 on revisit, but the connector returned the title and full text.
