This is exactly what I’m doing: Building a Duolingo-style app for workout logging + muscle ranking. Distribution: - TikTok & IG - 90% organic content No fancy ads. Just content → users → revenue. Now it’s doing $540K+/month. (And yes, Sensor Tower usually underestimates by ~30–70%) Lesson: Don’t overbuild.... show more

The easy way to make $10k/month Find a boring app in any niche. Then rebuild it as: “Duolingo for [that app]” Gamify it. Add streaks. Add levels. Add ranking. Make it addictive. Then don’t run ads first. Just print content on TikTok & IG. After got money -> run ads for scale Distribution > product. 💪

I don’t think AI “doesn’t work.” AI that feels fake doesn’t work. This app is getting ~90k downloads/month and doing $35k+/month mostly from viral AI clips. And from my experience, almost every “revenue estimate” tool for apps is wrong when it comes to organic traffic. Usually the real revenue is 1.5x–4x higher. I’ve already started using Arcads to build workflows for AI transformation videos for my weight loss app. The workflow is honestly simple: > Generate avatars with GPT Images 2.0 using JSON prompts > Download viral TikTok transformation videos > Use Kling Motion Control > Recreate the same style with a different influencer People underestimate how far AI UGC has already gone.

And do it begins…. Netflix has begun restricting content for plans that have ads They are now making you upgrade to a higher plan just to watch shows already available on Netflix Locked titles show a padlock icon in search and browse with a message that tells users to “Change plan to watch” Apparently Studios sometimes prohibit showing their content alongside commercials or require higher licensing fees for ad-supported distribution Keep in mind this show came out in 2010, and it’s been available many times without having to upgrade your service We all know this is really increase revenue, and this is actually true. According to Grok: Locked content can encourage upgrades, though Netflix frames it as a licensing issue rather than a deliberate upsell tactic It’s a scam

After My 2nd app hit 500 users in 5 days. Hired 2 students for content + organic marketing ($300/month). Now building the final app of the year, then focusing on scaling each to $10k MRR. Starting my 7-day MVP build challenge (again): Day 1 Log Dev setup: - Installed CodeRabbit AI CLI (got early access to test it, I'm a VIP of Coderabbit now LOL). - Created GitHub repo - Set up dev environment & codebase - Picked a fresh tech stack (trying something new to keep it exciting) Marketing prep: - Researching viral content formats - Testing the idea with a few videos to validate interest Day 1 done, the foundation is set. Let’s see where this week takes us.

it took us 3 weeks to get 500k+ views with a fully AI UGC on instagram and it taught me something huge if you create good content for long enough the algorithm is very simple it works to keep finding the type of user that engaged with your post similar to paid ads but this only works if you stay within niche and post consistently great content so stop seeing 1,000-4000 views as bad it’s simply taking the time to learn we’re being extremely aggressive with our marketing and created 40+ content variations each A/B testing a different part of the video - hook, music, transitions, wallpapers, workout, location, CTA, captions every single component is being tested we had a huge set back with Meta randomly banning 8 of our accounts last week we got the content ready and aim to post 20x per day minimum by 6/10 each day breaking down the data and creating more of what works then running it on paid ads both tiktok spark ads and meta ads marketing is definitely takes more time but at least shipping took just 2 weeks using Rork Max + Opus 4.7 at the time i launched, there was no other possible way to natively code in SwiftUI

I’m probably one of the only Teslanaires out there, if not one of the very few, still cutting my own hair. I cut my own hair again today, and it reminded me that becoming a multi-millionaire usually isn’t a random coincidence. People see the $ and think it just happened. What they usually don’t see are the small habits behind it. Of course, I could go spend $25–$50 on a haircut that probably looks better than the one I give myself. But that’s not really what matters to me. I don’t care that much about looking perfect. I care about controlling my time. I care about staying grounded. I care about keeping the kind of habits that helped me build wealth in the first place. And honestly, I enjoy doing it. I’ve been cutting my own hair for so many years that I don’t even think about going to the barber anymore. It’s just normal to me now. It saves time, keeps me frugal, and reminds me that wealth is usually built in the small choices nobody claps for. That’s the part people miss. A lot of people see wealth and assume it was luck. But a lot of the time, it’s really the result of small disciplined habits repeated for years. Not wasting $ just bc you can. Not wasting time just bc other people do. And the funny part is, one day my fleet of Tesla Bots will probably be doing it for me anyway. But until then, I’m good doing it myself. Bc to me, being wealthy was never about trying to look rich. It was about building a mindset. A mindset that values time, discipline, and freedom more than appearances. And once you really live that way, it shows up in a lot of things, even something as simple as cutting your own hair.

"3 years in the gym and NOW I find this" hit 3M views for a workout app video stats: • 3M views • 152K likes the hook does everything. three years of effort wasted because nobody told her sooner that frustration is universal she shows her face for 2 seconds, then cuts to the app classic react and reveal format the reaction builds curiosity, the reveal delivers the goods the app walkthrough is dead simple. tap a muscle group, see the exercises. no narrator explaining features no walls of text this works because fitness content usually feels intimidating complicated programs, advanced movements, science-heavy explanations. this video says "anyone can use this and get results" the POV angle matters too you're watching her scroll through her own phone. feels like a friend showing you something she found, not a brand selling you something

Here is the answer👇🏻 - In the US targetted audience is doing workouts like an army. Lots of fitness trainers and all jacked - For the TR side, I target women who doesnt workout (that is goldmine💰) It work latin americas country as well, believe me 🔑 If you speak Spanish or Portuguese, easier to run social media in those countries

It’s 𝕏 payday. The day the world’s best creators get paid for doing what they love. I now make more $ than I did during my 8 years at Apple. But to be honest, the $ is only small part of it. Today, I’m not tied to a desk. I don’t have a boss watching over me. No one is telling me where to be, what to work on, what to say, or what my day/life should look like. I wake up, bet on myself everyday, create and share my thoughts on what I believe in, and am doing something that really belongs to me. There is a MASSIVE premium on that kind of freedom that $ can’t buy. Once you experience it, it’s impossible to go back. The fulfillment and ownership of my own time cannot be replaced. I still remember everyone who told me I was stupid for wasting my time on 𝕏. “Get a real job.” “Those aren’t your real friends.” “No one cares what you post.” “Social media isn’t a career.” “You’ll never make real $ doing that.” “You just ride Elon’s dick.” “What you do isn’t even exciting.” “It won’t last.” Now all of those same people ask me how they can do it too. It’s really funny how betting on yourself looks foolish right up until it finally works. I built this life by showing up every single day when nobody believed in me and refusing to quit when it would have been easier to go back to Apple. I’m my own boss now. And I’m never handing that freedom back. 𝕏 is the place to be.

I tried Hailuo AI (MiniMax) to see how it handles real content creation. The workflow is simple. You just write a prompt or drop in an image, and it turns that into a dynamic video with motion, framing, and scene depth. No timeline to manage. No editing setup. No back and forth. What stood out to me: • Text to video and image to video both feel smooth. • It handles motion, camera angles, and flow on its own. • Output is fast, usually within seconds. • Works well for reels, quick ads, storytelling, and idea testing. It removes the hardest part: starting from scratch and turns your ideas into content in minutes. Instead of thinking, “How do I make this video?” You start with, “What do I want to create?” That shift alone makes it worth exploring. Try it here: #Hailuo

A recent post circulating from Andrew Huberman claims that low reps don’t build muscle and that high reps are necessary for muscle growth. However, this doesn’t align with the data I’ve studied. At the core of muscle building is the principle of overload and pushing your muscles close to failure. It’s often said you should leave about one rep “in the tank” — though this can be tricky to gauge. In my training routine, I start with warm-ups, then perform 1-2 intense sets before moving on. Each muscle group is worked 2-3 times per week. Now, consider this: can doing 12-20 half-hearted reps truly build more muscle than a few well-executed, heavy sets? The answer is clear—quality and intensity triumph over mere quantity. Support this page by shopping at Tiger Fitness !

Slideshow clipping has to be the chillest business model you can really be making $5k - $15k+ a month running 10 TikTok accounts and have complete location freedom + make more than you would working a job you can literally just go to content rewards, pick a saas or brand to promote, for example skin care buy 5 aged TT accounts to start with connect US proxy / sim find videos in the niche the product is in for example skin care steal the hook of the video and content inside it and turn it into a slideshow for example: “skin care tips for broke girls” generate the images with NBP by finding a Pinterest image and getting the JSON from Gemini or ChatGPT promote the product as another “glow up” tip Post 1 a day from the start and as the accounts get more warm boost it to 2-3 + scale to more accounts If you can’t make your first $5k doing this then there is no hope

This is a question I think quite a lot of people are wondering about. Right now, I’m hiring students to handle the newer phones, post content, and create content every day. For the TikTok accounts that are already trusted, have been running for a long time, and have a high follower count, I automate them using my own internal tools. Currently, I only handle the first steps myself: buying new phones → warming them up → making the first posts. After that, I hand the phones over to the students I hire to continue creating and posting content. Then, once I feel the accounts are strong enough, I move them into automation. And right now, I’m traveling with my family in Da Nang. This time I’m here with my family and want to spend all my time with them, so I won’t be meeting anyone while I’m here. 🏝️ I always aim to build everything in an automated way, or avoid doing things I don’t enjoy by hiring people to handle them for me.😌

Do you realize what just happend? 🤯 This app is printing $200k/mo With only 10 AI influencers that are generating 100M+ views/mo not one single real human used to promote it. it's absolutely nuts, they are spending maybe $39 on a higgsfield subscription and using the MCP to produce 100s of before and after videos/mo then just comment farming to get users To download the app on tiktok and IG. you could do the same and spend $0 because Higgsfield is literally giving a full month of seedance away for free right now if you are still in denial about using AI for marketing you are quite literally missing the gold rush.

Kate just can’t help herself, "444" has officially become her personal marketing prop. First, it’s holding up a wooden sign in a restaurant, grinning like it’s a cute trend and after that she’s in a nightclub with a massive glowing 444 sign, surrounded by bottles, laughing like it’s all a joke. It’s disgusting to see how low she’ll go to make everything about herself. This isn’t tribute. This isn’t grief. This is Kate exploiting Liam, again, turning something that should be meaningful into a clout-chasing stunt. Her reaction says it all smirking, laughing and treating it like it’s content for a highlight reel instead of something to respect. And, of course, her so-called friends are right there, encouraging this circus, fully part of the game because they know it gets attention. This is not grief, it’s PR, it’s brand-building and it’s vile to watch. The worst part? She’s making a mockery of it every single time she uses 444 for her own spotlight. The way she twists moments like this for attention is beyond gross. She’s not honoring Liam, it's always "me me me", she’s milking every drop of attention out of his name and laughing while doing it. #JusticeForLiam #StopExploitingLiam

Cal AI might be the most viral health app this year. 8M+ downloads, projected to do $30M revenue this year. Built by two teenagers. Everyone's using it. But nobody's talking about the fact that their AI is completely broken... To the point where users are manually correcting EVERY meal. • Bowl of grapes: 60 cal estimate (actually ~260) • 4 boiled eggs: 1,010 cal estimate (actually ~300) • Meat portions: consistently off by 50% These aren't my words, but the reviews you can see for yourself on App Store and other places. If the whole USP is saving time vs manual logging, and you still have to correct everything... what's the point? What Cal AI did get right: Distribution. • Viral TikTok content • Smart influencer partnerships • 8M downloads in under a year They absolutely crushed GTM. But the product doesn't work lol. The gap between the "90% accuracy" claim vs the actual user experience kills trust. And in health apps, trust is everything. This is the problem with AI apps across the board right now. Everyone's racing to ship fast and go viral. Nobody's asking: "Does this actually solve the problem?" Distribution > product quality is a losing game. As a result, you're bound to encounter problems: 1. Training data doesn't match real-world variety 2. No depth sensing for portion size 3. Poor training data on homemade meals 4. Zero context (is that chicken grilled or fried?) You only get fast & inaccurate answers. This is why, when I started building my own recipe app, I looked at Cal and other AI nutrition apps and noticed that being accurate was the biggest factor. Here's how we're building Nonna differently: ✓ Multi-model AI (different models for different foods) ✓ User feedback loop to improve estimates ✓ Manual override that actually trains the system ✓ Ship when it works, not when it's "good enough" If the AI can't nail it, we're not shipping it. But accuracy alone is boring. So we're also adding some additional features that make you want to use it daily: • Fridge Story: shareable infographic of your fridge contents • Mystery Ingredient: weekly cooking challenges • Cuisine Spin: random inspiration when you're stuck • Expectation vs Reality: before/after photo collages Tl;dr: Distribution gets downloads. Product keeps users. Cal got millions of downloads. How many people still use it daily after manually correcting every meal for a week? Viral marketing with a broken product = expensive way to disappoint people.

Important observation about the dirtiness of party politics made here by Bill Maher that it’s not always about what people say, it’s about who’s saying it. In 2015 Iran was seen as such a threat to the world that under the Democrats with Obama, the United States gave the regime $150 billion to promise not to build a nuclear bomb. Money which it then went on to spend on building elaborate underground missile cities and international terrorism leaving hundreds of thousands dead. Now in 2026 when the United States wants to do something about it, according to the same Democrats, the regime in Iran is suddenly a peaceful state that was never a legitimate threat and Trump is an idiot with no clue what he’s doing.
