AvtoPro
👤 Evgeny Alyanchikov (His agency was paid to build catalogs of books, films, medicines and car parts — then kept the market with the most unmet demand.)🌐 siteabp.ua
Two students spent five years building data catalogs for other people's markets, then kept the best one.
Will it work? · our read
Deliberately chosen. The catalog and the brand are real, built over 15 years on their own money. Monetization is the choice never revisited: $105M of trade in 2021, $540K of revenue in 2022.

The $105M is what buyers paid the stores, not what AvtoPro kept — the founder stresses the platform is 'not tied to this turnover'. Starter Story
Stores sold $105M of parts through the platform in 2021. AvtoPro takes no cut of that — it sells ads and services to the stores instead.

Revenue is the founder's own figure in his 10 Jul 2022 Starter Story interview ($540K/yr, '$45,000 revenue/mo') — first-party but unaudited, and now four years old; we found no newer disclosure. Check the period: he reported it mid-war, having just said profits were back to 45% of pre-war levels by end of May 2022, so it is not a peak figure. The $105M is goods sold by stores through the platform in 2021 — GMV, which he himself stresses AvtoPro is 'not tied to'. It is not revenue, and we deliberately did not divide the two: they cover different years and one is wartime. One tension we could not resolve: $540K/yr against a stated 50 employees (the text also says 'over 100 experts', which appears to cover the wider ABP group) is hard to reconcile — treat the figure as reported, not corroborated. 'Largest Ukrainian parts shop' is Exist.ua's own claim on its seller page. Rival bar weights are our read of reach, not measured share. All figures were read from the raw HTML of each page, not from search snippets. We never score you.
