Not scored yet. Nobody has reviewed this plugin, so a grade would come from directory averages rather than from anything measured here.

Install conversion

How it's measured →

2.4%

of downloads still active

At least 10 of 421 lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,572 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

Est. acquisition value

N/A

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.
