I joined chatbase.co exactly 1 week ago.
Here’s what I learned so far about how they got to $380k MRR—and my plan to make that $1M MRR.
Yasser built Chatbase by sticking with one product, refining it, and solving a real problem for customers—a long-term approach that paid off.
What’s working for Chatbase:
Building in public: Yasser shares simple demos of Chatbase with every new feature. Works especially well for AI products with that “WOW” factor.
- Organic posts on Reddit and LinkedIn got picked up by AI influencers, spreading like wildfire.
Building an influencer pipeline
- Big spreadsheet with influencers (some small, some BIG). Focus on long-term partnerships instead of one-off posts = consistent momentum.
Paid Ads
Simple strategy: Keep spending more as long as the ROI is positive. If it’s working, scale!
Partnering with established companies
Collaborations with
@vercel,
@supabase, and
@Railway.
Chatbase logo is featured on their landing pages.
Joint marketing + case studies = credibility boost.
Making educational content
Chatbase is in the B2B SaaS space. Many customers are into business, tech, and AI content.
Being active in these communities positions Chatbase as an industry leader.
My plan to hit $1M MRR:
✅ Double down on what’s working: public demos, influencers, ads, and partnerships.
✅ Build a community around Chatbase—engage users and make them part of the journey.
✅ Plan an epic Product Hunt launch on Feb 4th (it’s a Tuesday—you know I love Tuesdays).
✅ Expand partnerships with even more companies to make Chatbase the go-to tool in the space.
And the most important lesson: one product, solve a real problem, and stay consistent. 🧠
