Methodology
Same method as What AI Side Hustles Really Earn: every real Starbelo example in this niche that links its source and states a US dollar figure. Ranges, other currencies, costs, budgets, savings and fundraising are left out. For each one we use its biggest stated figure, plus any figure stated per month and any MRR. Medians need at least 3 data points. Biggest figures mix time periods.
