AppOrbit does not broker deals. It verifies and publishes revenue. Every listing's numbers come live from RevenueCat, every listing is public, and it is completely free for both sides. For a small app that verification is worth a lot. On a marketplace full of revenue claims nobody can check, a live from source AppOrbit listing stands out instantly.
