Annual Revenue

Admittedly, these numbers are on the optimistic side somewhat, since it's not a given that Gramrite, Psyberhood or Boardalog will manage to sign up thousands of users. But at least it shows that profitability can be possible, potentially. Also, even if only one project ends up being profitable, the other 2 projects can be abandoned and financial sustainability can be achieved. If Psyberhood winds up being the only surviving project, it doesn't have to be profitable since funding from the Ministry of Health can bridge the gap between revenue and expenses.
