How he earns: He runs several small AI products, including a service that generates professional-looking headshots with AI. On a self-reported basis, revenue reaches roughly $3.6M a year.

How he does it: He solves one concrete inconvenience β€” "I want a profile photo without going to a studio" β€” with image-generation AI. A solo-dev style of acquiring customers while sharing results on social media.

What you can learn: Aim at one clear pain point and solve it cheaply and quickly with AI. Narrowing down to "whose, which inconvenience do I remove" β€” not flash β€” is what gets one person to a multi-million-dollar scale.
