Why would someone buy something for up to $10M is a critical question. If you didn't develop unique IP that other people can rip off with vibe-coding then it's not that. If you didn't get customers that can't easily switch off to a competitor then it's not that.
The problem with rushing out over the weekend and hoping for a $1M exit is that if YOU can do it so can I and 100000 other people, so it doesn't make any sense.
Most acquisitions under $10M for quick and dirty apps and products are TALENT ACQUISITIONS and those want TALENT. Not bootcamp grads with used to be musicians who built a music app that musicians love and got 50K installs in a week.
I'm being harsh because I feel strongly about the focus on the EXIT aspect. I've long recommended bootcamp grads build more things and do mini-startups and stuff to build experience with the goal of having something to get a job, not exit.
