Full answer
Vibe Shipped lists 19 sourced apps built with Claude Code that have a stated revenue figure: 2 A · Processor-verified, 2 B · Documented, 15 C · Maker-claimed.

- NameSnag: Sold for $15K (exit). Source: https://joshpigford.com/projects/namesnag
- Personal CRM (Max Votek): $2K/month SaaS bill replaced (savings) (savings). Source: https://maxvotek.com
Notes
- Evidence tiers: A = processor-verified (e.g. Stripe via TrustMRR); B = documented (the linked source is a first-party case study by the build-tool maker, or shows the revenue dashboard); C = maker-claimed (everything else, including third-party lists that repeat a figure). Each app shows the basis for its tier and the date its source link was last checked (evidence_checked_at). Figures are as stated by the maker or source, not audited by Vibe Shipped.
Method
Live Vibe Shipped listings whose tools include Claude Code and whose stated figure is revenue (not savings, prizes or exits). Sorted by normalized monthly USD where available (MRR as stated, ARR/12); non-USD or non-monthly figures sort last. Monthly USD figures normalize stated revenue (MRR as stated, ARR/12, $/month as stated). USD only; non-USD, totals, savings, prizes and exits are excluded. Figures are as stated by makers or sources, not audited. An app built with several tools counts toward each.
