The Niche Research Kit That
Builds a $5K/mo File Converter
3 weeks of competitive research, keyword mapping, and positioning work — packaged for the file-conversion niche that generic converters can't touch.
Every major converter strips macros. That's your wedge.
CloudConvert, ILovePDF, SmallPDF — they all do it deliberately. Macros are a security/liability call for platforms serving millions. That creates a search vacuum that nobody is filling. This kit is the blueprint to fill it.
6 files. Everything from research to launch copy.
No filler. No "inspiration". Every file is a working deliverable you adapt and ship.

Questions
Is this software I need to maintain?
No. This is a research pack — PDFs, Markdown, and CSV files. You open them, adapt them, and ship your own product. There's nothing to install or update.
What tech stack does the checklist assume?
Next.js + Tailwind + Vercel for hosting. LibreOffice headless or Aspose for conversion. You can swap any piece — the checklist is opinionated but not locked in.
Is the keyword data validated against real search volume?
Keywords were identified via competitor SERP analysis, Google autocomplete, and forum pattern-matching. Volumes are estimates — treat them as directional signals, not exact counts.
Can I use this for a different file-conversion niche?
Yes, but the pack is optimised for the macro-preservation wedge specifically. The keyword matrix and positioning won't transfer 1:1 to a different niche without rework.
What if I'm not happy with it?
Email within 7 days for a full refund. No questions.
