Hi! I'm AJ, maker of Carrd and ... after 2.5M sites, $1M ARR, and a funding round, probably time for an AMA!

Hello again, IH! I'm AJ (@ajlkn on Twitter/elsewhere) and the maker of Carrd (carrd.co), a one-page site builder for pretty much anything. Since my first AMA over 3 years ago, Carrd is now:

  • Home to 2.5M sites (created by some 1.6M users)
  • Earning over $1M ARR
  • Growing by over 10k new sites daily
  • Its own company (Carrd Inc)
  • Partly VC-funded (preeeety sure there will be some questions about this :)
  • Entirely on AWS (as of earlier this month)

... and basically still just me (on dev/product) and Doni (on operations) -- for now :)

Mentioned some of this on Twitter recently and promised I'd elaborate so happy to do just that (or answer, well, anything because AMA).

PS: And of course, thank you Courtland for allowing me to do this!
