Google Analytics screenshots are not proof of 1,000 users
I keep seeing posts where founders share a Google Analytics screenshot and say they crossed 1,000 MAU.
But that is not really how it works.
Website visitors are not the same as actual users.
A landing page view, a bot visit, or someone clicking around once does not mean they became a product user.
I think this creates a problem for founders who are genuinely trying to tell their story through real user growth. When everyone can post an analytics screenshot and call it “users,” the signal becomes weaker for people who actually have active users inside their product.
So I built a simple leaderboard for SaaS founders where user counts are verified through Clerk or Supabase Auth.
The idea is simple:
connect your auth provider, verify your real user count, and share your growth with more credibility.
It is free to join here:

Would love to see more founders share actual user growth, not just traffic screenshots.
