Buy simple high-traffic tools like ezgif and remove.bg

Shaan keeps a 'Buyouts' Slack channel of websites worth acquiring. Favorites are dead-simple single-purpose tools that get huge traffic with near-zero maintenance, like ezgif.com and remove.bg, which lets non-Photoshop users remove a photo background and pay per credit.

“I love this simple tool that gets a ton of traffic. It's zero to no maintenance and it makes money. You know, remove.bg is another one like that. Where you can just remove the background of a photo and then you pay for credits. So it's like you don't need to know Photoshop to remove the background of a photo. And I just think that's genius.”
