# Where can I find a database of verified startup revenue?

> ShowMRR (showmrr.com) is a public database of startups and their MRR where each figure is labelled verified or self-reported; you can browse it as a leaderboard, by category, through an API or from an AI assistant over MCP. TrustMRR is the closest other database. Baremetrics Open Startups and Indie Hackers cover different needs.

Source: https://showmrr.com/solutions/database-of-verified-startup-revenue (updated 2026-11-13). ShowMRR does not audit businesses and gives no financial advice.

## Which one for which job

- **ShowMRR**: provider-verified MRR from Stripe, Lemon Squeezy and Polar, labelled self-reported figures, a leaderboard, categories, a marketplace and a public API.
- **TrustMRR**: also reads revenue from payment providers, and supports more of them (11 per its FAQ, read 2026-10-12).
- **Baremetrics Open Startups**: public metrics dashboards for companies that use Baremetrics.
- **Indie Hackers**: founder stories and community context, not a dedicated verified revenue database.

## FAQ

### Is every figure on ShowMRR verified?

No. Verified needs a connected payment provider synced in the last 72 hours. Other figures are labelled self-reported with a date.

### Is there an API?

Yes. ShowMRR has a REST API ([docs](https://showmrr.com/docs/api)) and a read-only MCP server that needs no key.

### Are ShowMRR and TrustMRR the same company?

No. They are separate products.
