What Roll Digital builds for you.

Custom scope to take CandleKit from MVP shell to operating business.

• ▸Production npm package with TypeScript definitions and complete API documentation
• ▸Stripe billing backend for one-time and subscription license sales
• ▸SaaS customer portal with subscription management and license tracking
• ▸Email onboarding automation and API key provisioning system
• ▸Analytics dashboard tracking adoption, churn, and revenue metrics
• ▸GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline for automated releases and versioning
• ▸30-day customer success support and technical integration assistance

Why this could work.

Lightweight Charts has 20,000 active developers building fintech UIs, and many need drawing tools today. Your GTM targets them directly through SEO, npm discovery, and fintech communities where CAC is low. The product solves a real, unmet need. Developer tooling markets reward strong documentation and DX, which you can deliver. The $9-110k first-year range is achievable if you execute the community and organic growth strategy.

What you'd risk.

TradingView has already announced native drawing tool development. If they ship this, your core value prop evaporates. Additionally, the addressable market may only be 300-800 paying developers, most of them hobbyists with low willingness to pay. Serious traders use TradingView Pro embedded, not this library. Your one-time license model creates a revenue ceiling that resets yearly. Free open-source alternatives are the norm in developer tooling, and competing on features alone is difficult.

Who this fits.

This fits a solo SaaS founder or small product team already familiar with developer marketing and npm distribution. You need technical chops to maintain the product and respond to GitHub issues. Ideally you have an existing fintech or crypto audience. Agency operators unfamiliar with open-source dynamics or developer communities will struggle with the GTM. This is not a turnkey business.
