Congratulations, would you mind sharing how many free users you had before you decided to make this transition?

It's hard to say since the tool was not only free, but didn't even require signing up (see for example comproi.com, its sister-site which is still free and no-sign-up). My estimate is about 200 free users, but could be off. We'll see how many they actually sign up now (so far about 50)

Wow! In 1 day you converted about $7500/year of customers. That’s impressive. This implies you’re already at MVP!

How long did it take you get those ~200 free plan users?

If you can repeat that every month, you’re already in “real, viable company/job” land. Perhaps you should consider spending at least a portion of your time on market rather than tech dev now.
