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
A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The range spans more than 10x because wp.org publishes install counts as broad bands, and conversion and price compound on top. Read the midpoint as an order of magnitude, not a valuation.
How we estimate this
Assumptions
- Free → paid conversion. 0.5%–2% of active installs pay for the pro tier. Typical for freemium WordPress plugins; the real rate varies a lot by product.
- Annual price per customer. $49–$129 a year, typical for WordPress plugins rather than this plugin's own pricing.
- Acquisition multiple. 2x–4x annual revenue, the going range for small WordPress-plugin businesses, the typical range for a steady plugin.
- Install base. 1K–2K active installs, from our install estimate (wp.org only publishes the floor).

Revenue is installs × conversion × price; value is revenue × a typical acquisition multiple. Every factor is an assumption band, so the output is a wide range on purpose. If you're buying or selling, treat this as a starting point for due diligence.

Another freemium plugin that’s not even do what it’s advertise.Stopped after about 30% of regeneration process, told me to rate the plugin and did not even allowed me to regenerate missing sizes – i need to regenerate all of them.Most of the features are blocked under paywall.That’s not the proper way of introducing your product.

Before you can use the plugin, you are FORCED to agree to send technical data to the developer, which is against WordPress terms! They do this by forcing you to agree to check a box saying that you have read the Privacy Policy, which I don’t mind, AND agree to sending technical data to the developer, because both are included on the same check box, and if you don’t check the box, the plugin won’t work! The stupid thing is that the plugin itself works okay, so if it weren’t for this coercion, and then nagging me to leave a rating for the plugin, I would have been more than happy to check out the Pro version, instead they have lost a potential customer AND got a 1-star review from me.

The plugin author(s) must have put a lot of effort into the user interface; it’s beautiful! They have made a product that works nicely and is a pleasure to use.
