In the startup world, making bold claims about user acquisition is common. HowMuchUsers changes that dynamic by acting as the public scoreboard for startups' user counts, allowing founders to seamlessly prove their metrics. By connecting to your product via a single API call, the platform transforms your user count into a live, verifiable growth profile.

Designed with privacy at its core, HowMuchUsers strictly measures products rather than people, ensuring that no personal data is collected or stored ever. Founders can track real-time users, prove organic growth, embed live badges, and share key milestones across the web. Furthermore, the platform introduces a gamified competitive edge by letting startups climb global, country, and category leaderboards—or even challenge competitors head-to-head. It is free to start for any team looking to bring absolute transparency to their growth.
