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
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 is great and easy to use. It enables you to easily convert pages into blocks without the painstaking process of manually transferring the page. With one button, you can move to usable blocks that maintain the page’s structure, thus saving you hours of work. Simply put, this is a major timesaver!
