We are profitable for the first time, our customers sent over one million emails and we released the first open source software of our own: welcome to our Open Startup Report for June 2021.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is what moved us in June:<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the first time in the history of Friendly, our monthly recurring revenue exceeded our costs. It took us 16 months to get there since our foundation in February 2020<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Revenue in June increased slightly by +1%, at the same time our costs decreased by -3%, mainly due to less expenses for freelancers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This does not mean that we are on a bed of roses.
