Menu bar vs. wallpaper for your MRR

Most revenue trackers for indie hackers live in the menu bar: a tiny number you can glance at all day. That works well, though many are subscriptions — which is a little ironic when you're tracking your own. The alternative is to surface revenue on your wallpaper, where it sits alongside the rest of your day. Here are the strongest options.

1. Orbl

Orbl puts your revenue on your wallpaper instead of in the menu bar. With the Stripe integration and Premium add-ons like ChartMogul, Lemon Squeezy, Gumroad, Polar, Dodo, and TrustMRR, your MRR sits on the desktop next to weather, focus, and your GitHub contribution graph. It's 100% local — read-only keys live in your macOS Keychain and are called directly from your Mac, with no server or account. Best of all, Premium is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. See the revenue dashboard and how it fits the indie hacker workflow.

Best for: Indie hackers who want revenue glanceable on the wallpaper, with a one-time price and no data leaving their Mac.

2. MRRTracker

MRRTracker is a focused menu-bar app that shows your Stripe MRR and growth at a glance. It does one thing cleanly and is popular in the indie community. It's typically a subscription, which is worth weighing.

Best for: A dedicated, no-distraction MRR number in the menu bar.

3. IndieBar

IndieBar packs multiple metrics — MRR, new customers, churn — into the menu bar and supports several sources. It's a richer dashboard for people who track more than one number. It generally runs on a subscription.

Best for: Founders who want several revenue metrics in one menu-bar dropdown.

4. MyRevenue

MyRevenue keeps things simple: connect Stripe, see your revenue. It's a paid, lightweight option for people who just want the essential figure without extra dashboards.

Best for: A straightforward, no-frills revenue glance.

5. TrustBar

TrustBar is a lightweight menu-bar revenue display that's easy to set up and stays out of your way. It's a paid utility aimed at minimalists.

Best for: A clean, minimal revenue readout in the menu bar.

6. CatBar

CatBar surfaces RevenueCat metrics in the menu bar, which makes it the natural pick if your revenue runs through app subscriptions rather than Stripe directly. It's paid and purpose-built for that audience.

Best for: Mobile and app developers tracking RevenueCat subscriptions.

7. Stripe Dashboard (web/mobile)

Stripe's own dashboard is free and authoritative, and the mobile app sends payment notifications. It's not a glanceable desktop widget, but it's the source of truth every other tool reads from.

Best for: The official, complete view when you need detail.

Which revenue tracker fits you

If you want a single menu-bar number, MRRTracker and IndieBar are solid, just mind the subscriptions. If you'd rather see revenue in context — alongside your focus, your tasks, and your GitHub graph, all on a calm wallpaper and 100% local — Orbl is the standout alternative, and Premium is a one-time purchase.
