Why Teams Switch from TrustMRR to Chartivo
You Want Charts, Not Just a Profile Page
TrustMRR shows your current MRR on a standardized profile. Chartivo creates custom charts, revenue over time, subscription breakdown, customer growth, and lets you embed them anywhere.
Your blog post needs a revenue chart, not a link to a directory.
You Need More Than Stripe
TrustMRR is Stripe-only. Chartivo pulls from Stripe, Google Analytics, Search Console, Google Sheets, and Notion databases.
Share revenue alongside traffic growth. Show MRR next to SEO rankings. One chart, multiple data sources.
You Want Control Over Where Metrics Live
TrustMRR metrics live on trustmrr. com. Chartivo charts embed directly in your blog, Notion page, public dashboard, or anywhere that supports iframes.
Your metrics on your site, not someone else’s directory.

What Chartivo Does Differently
TrustMRR built a directory for build-in-public transparency. Chartivo built a chart platform for teams that need metrics embedded in their workflow.
The difference: TrustMRR is a destination. Chartivo brings charts to where you work.
If you’re writing a blog post about your revenue journey, you don’t want to link to TrustMRR, you want a live chart embedded in the post. If you’re building in public on Notion, you don’t want readers clicking away, you want metrics right there on the page.
Chartivo charts live where you put them. Blog posts, public Notion pages, public dashboards, Twitter embeds (via screenshot or iframe if supported), anywhere.
When to Use Each

- Leaderboard credibility: You want to rank publicly against other startups
- Directory backlink: You value the DR 51+ dofollow SEO boost

Chartivo is Best For:
