How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

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.

    Just what I needed! All the merge tags info on one page – the more I worked with it the more I loved it! Even has an extra tab with meta merge tags. Had a project building custom PDF documents with GF data and this plugin is super handy to have. Thank you!
