Day 1 of 365

Dollar by Day

$1 × the day of the year. One person per slot.

Every day, the price goes up by $1.

Only N people can join on Day N.

Miss today? Try again tomorrow.

This is a real-time experiment in momentum, marketing, and consistency — run publicly by an engineer.

Can a solo engineer keep a product alive for an entire year — one dollar at a time?

I'm tracking everything: traffic, conversions, ideas, wins, failures.

Join for a day, or just follow along.

How it works

1
Daily Number

Each day has a number (Jan 1 = 1, Dec 31 = 365). That's the total price and available slots.

2
First Come First Serve

Contribute $1 to claim a slot. When all N slots fill, the drop closes for the day.

3
Daily Reset

Missed today? Try tomorrow. Every day at midnight, new slots open at the next day's price.
