Quick API was a no-code tool that turned data sources like CSV, Excel and Airtable into working REST APIs without writing code. Founder Mohd Danish Yusuf sold it to Louis Lafont for $5,000 in a founder-to-founder Twitter deal in January 2023.
The $5,000 sale price puts it in the lower half of the 570 deals with a disclosed price here, where the median is $20,000. 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 190 Developer Tools exits, and the ones that disclosed a price sold at a median of $23,000. 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.
