If you’re a founder sitting on a dusty repo and a handful of paying customers, you don’t have to choose between:
- Keeping a product you’re no longer excited about, or
- Shutting it down and walking away with nothing.
Borderline exists to offer a third option:
Sell it, pass it on, and use that energy (and cash) to build whatever’s next.
Whether you’re looking to sell your app or buy your next micro-startup, Borderline.biz is built to make that process as simple, transparent, and founder-friendly as possible.
1. The Product Is Profitable… but Distracting
Sometimes a micro-SaaS or app is making money, but:
- It no longer fits the founder’s long-term vision.
- It’s taking attention away from a bigger opportunity.
- Supporting users and maintaining the code has become a mental drag.
In these cases, selling the product allows the founder to focus again.
2. Growth Has Plateaued
You might reach a point where:
- The product is steady, but not explosive.
- You’ve squeezed most of the obvious wins out of it.
- The next stage of growth would require a different skill set.
Instead of forcing it, some founders prefer to sell to someone who’s excited to take on that next stage.
3. Life Just Changed
Sometimes the reason is simple:
- A new job.
- A new baby.
- Burnout.
- A move into a completely different field.
Rather than letting the project slowly decay, Borderline lets founders hand it off to someone who still has the energy to grow it.
4. De-Risking and Cashing Out
For digital products, value often sits locked up in code and logins.
Selling through Borderline turns that into:
- A lump sum of cash
- Less mental load
- Freedom to explore new ideas
A Win-Win Hand-Off
When a founder sells:
- They get to move on with money and peace of mind.
- A buyer gets a working product, users, and revenue to build on.
- Users get a new, motivated owner instead of a neglected app.
If that sounds appealing, it might be time to think about listing your own product on Borderline.
