WA Ko-fi Stats v1.0.0 released
Since I opened my account in Ko‑fi back in 2021, I shared with all of you plenty of posts and images of my creations and plans. One thing that I am missing all these years was an easy way to understand what is actually happening with subscriptions, donations, and product sales.
I had many unknowns, like, how many subscribers did I have in every month? How much are the donations I provide to other users and how many subscriptions did I have on each month? Of the applications I develop and provide as donationware, how many were sold, and what was the percentage of the people who paid for them against those who got it for free?
These and a lot more of unknowns needed to be clarified, if I wanted to take decisions for my next steps. Unfortunately, Ko‑fi itself doesn't provide that information, but it provides a CSV file with data that could be useful.
So, the last few days I worked on a cross-platform application that could help to answer as many questions as possible. And the Ko-fi Stats tool was born, which I made available today to everyone. I hope that more people will find it useful.
I would like to clarify here that Ko-fi Stats is an independent third-party application. It is not an official Ko‑fi product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Ko-fi.
It already has plenty of features, which can be found in detail at this wiki page, but more will be added in future versions. Currently, it works on Linux x64, macOS x64 and Windows systems, with more to be supported in the next releases.
Ko-fi Stats processes your CSV file locally on your computer, and it doesn't share any information with any online service or website. It can even be used when you are offline, as long as the Transactions CSV file is available.
The application can be found in my shop. Please do not hesitate to contact me, whether you find it useful or not. I would love to hear what you think about it.
