What is MilestoneGlow?

MilestoneGlow is a web tool that turns your milestones — MRR numbers, GitHub stars, Reddit subscribers, follower counts — into glowing animated MP4 videos in 30 seconds. No design skills needed. Used by 500+ founders, developers and creators.

How is MilestoneGlow different from AnimStats?

MilestoneGlow has three features AnimStats lacks: (1) TrustMRR verified badge — proves MRR is Stripe-verified, (2) Reddit milestone videos for subreddit growth celebrations, (3) Lifetime plan at $19 one-time vs ongoing subscription only.

Can I auto-import my GitHub stars?

Yes. Type your GitHub username or repo name and MilestoneGlow auto-fetches your stars, forks, and followers. No manual entry needed.

What is the TrustMRR verified badge?

An exclusive MilestoneGlow feature. When you connect TrustMRR, your MRR video displays a '✓ Verified by TrustMRR' badge — showing your revenue is Stripe-verified, not self-reported. No other video tool offers this.

GitHub stars are the social currency of the developer world. Here is how to show them off.

1. Use the GitHub Stars Auto-Import

Instead of manually counting stars, enter your repository name into the MilestoneGlow GitHub integration field. Our tool auto-fetches your stars, forks, and followers count immediately.

2. Pick a Developer Aesthetic

Our "Dev-Focused" templates use clean monospaced fonts and high-contrast terminal-style glows to resonate with the developer audience on Twitter/X and Reddit.
