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.

    This plugin would work well if you needed to duplicate media and didn’t have the source file with you. Otherwise, it’s not really any faster than uploading a new version yourself. It doesn’t allow you to select multiple images and duplicate them all at once. Thank you for the plugin, though:)
