$12 → $3.4K MRR: one MCP feature broke this side project open

In March 2026, a solo DevOps engineer in the Balkans went from $230 to $2,200 MRR in a single month. He didn't 10x his SEO. He didn't run a single ad. He shipped one feature, an MCP server, that turned his Twitter scheduler into the default way for AI agents to post to X without paying X's $5,000/month API tier. Seven months later he sits at $3.4K MRR, 251 paying subs, and out-earning his day job.
