Cause of death: the autopsy
The validator said test first (17/25), then a red team killed it: the self-serve wedge was already taken more cheaply (CRAcheck at €25 a month for unlimited repos, cra-ready at €59 one-off, free open-source kits), Espressif gives ESP32 makers a free generator, and EU-funded free templates are arriving. Realistic all-vendor spend is about €2-3M a year after the December 2027 deadline, under €0.8M today, so our share would be €20-125k a year at best, with MRR of €0.7-2.5k at 12 months.
The numbers
None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.
Could rise again if
Only as one section inside a broader 'EU compliance for micro makers' bundle (packaging, product safety and CRA), if that bundle survives its own check.
