Realistic income
In a Starter Story video (Jun 22, 2024) titled “They Make $1.4M/Year With AI”, co-founders Blaine Bolos and Ramon Berrios said Castmagic went from $0 to about $120,000 a month in nine months. The figure is from mid-2024. This figure is operator-reported, not independently verified, and may be out of date. This is one operator’s result, often after months or years of work, and doesn’t predict yours. Check the live source — numbers change.
Risks
- Crowded category with many cheaper rivals.
- AI writing still needs human review.
- Revenue figure is from mid-2024.
- Startup cost and time to first dollar are not disclosed.
