Parrot Language App: $16K to $75K MRR in 6 Weeks

We entered YC with $16K MRR. 100% bootstrapped. Today, we’re at $75K MRR, a 4.7× increase in just 6 weeks ( and $1.1M in annualized run rate) and on track to double before the end of the year. It’s been wild watching Parrot evolve from a scrappy experiment into a product people genuinely love using daily. Every day, new users tell us the same thing: “It doesn’t feel like I’m studying. I’m just scrolling.” That’s exactly the point. We’re building the first language app designed for the way people actually spend time on their phones, swiping through short, entertaining videos. Except this time, it’s productive scrolling. We’re just getting started. The retention is improving, the love is real, and the growth is compounding. Super excited to keep talking to users and making Parrot 100x better.
