Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow 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
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.

Very helpful finding unused widgets. I love it

I have over 9 plugins for elementor widgets. Sometimes necessary when needing specialized widget functions. Found out I had Widget Bloat. App helped me deactivate over 150 unusable widgets that were loading, but were never being used. Noticed a slight increase in TTFB speed. Not the entire answer to speed issues, but a great and easy tool to getting there.

I was trying to remember what widgets were in use. This plugin made that task MUCH easier! Thank you plugin developer for making it!

Really saved us trying to find external elementor plugins… much easier to use than searching all tables in the database, which is what we did previously.

This is an essential plugin for anyone running a large Elementor system. There are so many widgets and the ability to know what you have and whether you really need certain plugins is essential to good maintenance
