Developers barely buy things. Excluding infrastructure, You can count with one hand fingers. Be it IDE, Password Manager, Note Talking, .. well I can't come up with things that they aren't already using FREE tools.


Excluding infrastructure is a pretty big exclusion, especially if your infrastructure includes tools like New Relic, Data Dog, Sentry, CircleCI, and the countless other developer B2B SaaS tools in place at thousands of companies. Most of those purchases were driven by developers even if not using their personal credit card to buy them.

where do you think are profitable areas for indie SaaS?


That's literally my question too, sorry!
