Cautionary story

The famous number is not ARR

The counter was 12 times the last 30 days of all money received. Subscriptions were 47.5% of it in May 2026 and 60.9% in August. Advertising budgets and the sales of customers' companies pass through Polsia; most of that money is not Polsia's revenue. This page is on Aiolum as a warning about how a public revenue claim can mislead, not as a model to copy. Read the section "What to watch" before the numbers.

Polsia sells AI agents that build and run a small online company for a customer. An AI agent is a program in which a language model decides the next action and performs it with tools. Examples of tools are a code editor, an email account and an advertising account. The customer gives an idea. Polsia creates a website, an inbox and a payment account. One agent does one task every night and reports by email. The customer pays a monthly subscription and buys credits for extra tasks.

Ben Broca, who also uses the name Ben Cera, launched it alone in December 2025. He is a former manager at CloudKitchens. In February 2026 he let the product answer investor emails in public, and he showed a live counter of the company's run rate. A run rate is the revenue of a recent period, multiplied to a full year. Here it is the last 30 days times twelve. The counter passed US$1 million on 28 February 2026 and US$10 million in May 2026. In May he announced an investment of US$30 million at a US$250 million valuation. He has no employees.

The famous number is not annual recurring revenue (ARR), which is the monthly subscription revenue times twelve. The counter also annualized one-time credit purchases, advertising money that customers send through Polsia to Meta, and the sales of the customers' own companies. On 23 May 2026, subscriptions were 47.5% of the counter. This page therefore uses the subscription figure from the company's own public data: US$774,984 a month on 27 August 2026. Every number here is reported by the company, grade C. No payment processor, auditor or journalist has checked the payment records. The founder says that churn is about 50% in the first month. Churn is the share of paying customers who cancel in a period.

Polsia: US$775K a month in subscriptions, August 2026. AI agents that build and run small online companies, France, now USA, solo founder, evidence grade C.

How to read this table: a grade C value has one of three origins. It is a founder statement, a figure from the company's own dashboard, or a press or reviewer report that did not check payment records. A "calc" value was computed on this page from the rows above it. No value is grade A or B. The dashboard figures come from copies that the Internet Archive saved on the dates shown.

Polsia prices in October 2026: plans from a reviewer on 15 September, credit steps and fees from the company's terms and app code (grade C)
PlanPer month, billed yearly (US$)Per month, billed monthly (US$)Limit

Polsia has no public price page. Prices appear after sign-up, and the reviewer found two different price lists inside the product on the same day. The yearly column is empty because the product shows the yearly option only as two months free. One credit pays for one agent task. On top of the plan, Polsia keeps 3% of every payment that the customer's company receives and holds the money for 31 days. It also keeps 20% of every advertising budget. The terms of June 2026 still took 20% of customer payments. The first plan, in February 2026, was US$49 a month.

03

How it grew

Four causes, in the order they mattered. Each one is a reusable lesson.

01

Distribution

The fundraising was the advertisement. On 17 February 2026 the founder posted that the product would raise its own money. He opened a live page with the revenue counter and the agents' work. The counter went from US$208,516 that day to US$1,098,344 eleven days later. He says that each post raised the numbers, and that the higher numbers brought more investors and more posts.

02

No step between idea and company

A new user types an idea or presses a button that chooses one. Before any payment, Polsia makes a company name, a market report, a live website and an inbox, and posts about the company on X. The founder says that each extra question would lower the share of users who pay. On 22 May 2026 the dashboard showed 3,767 new sign-ups in one day and 21.7% of trials that became paid, 4,467 of 20,548.

03

A counter that includes customers' money

The live number was 12 times the last 30 days of all money received. That money included subscriptions, one-time credit packs, advertising budgets that go to Meta, and the sales of customers' companies. When the interviewer asked, the founder described this method himself. From March to May 2026 the number that people shared was about twice the subscription revenue. The counter was correct as a sum, but investors and press called it ARR, and it was not.

04

Credits on top of the subscription

The subscription pays for one automatic task each night. A customer who wants more work at once buys credits, at about US$1 to US$2 per task. On 29 August 2026 one-time credit packs were 25.7% of all money received. The cost is on the same side. The founder says that a task cost him about US$2 with Claude. A task cost US$20 to US$30 when an agent repaired a large code base.

How it was built

These details come from founder interviews, press reports and the company's terms. They are grade C. [3, 12, 15, 16, 6]

  • Built on Anthropic's Claude with the Claude Agent SDK. An SDK (software development kit) is a set of ready code; this one is for programs in which the model calls tools. In February 2026 the agent that plans strategy ran on Claude Opus 4.6.
  • Each customer company receives a web server, a database, a GitHub account, an email address, a Stripe payment account and a Meta advertising account. Polsia manages all of them, so the customer connects nothing.
  • A chief-executive agent runs every night. It reads the state of the company, chooses one task, gives it to an engineering, marketing or support agent, and emails the customer a report.
  • The advertising agent writes the advert and generates a video of an invented person with OpenAI's Sora 2. It uploads the video to Meta and stops adverts that perform badly. The customer sets a budget from US$10 a day.
  • Suppliers that the founder named in May 2026: Sapiom, Blaxel, Anchor Browser, AgentMail, Stripe, Render, Anthropic, OpenAI, Meta, X, GitHub, Postmark and Amazon Web Services.
  • The founder writes Polsia itself with Claude Opus and uses OpenAI Codex as a second reviewer for bug fixes. His own tools cost about US$800 a month. He says that he no longer reads the code.
  • By June 2026 the founder had moved tasks from Anthropic's models to open-source models on rented graphics processors. He says that the price was about 100 times lower.

The dead that came before

Five companies in the Loot Drop database promised to do the work of a small company for a customer who could not do it alone. The values below are from that database and are not independently verified.

Died 2016 to 2025Burned US$445M

Builder.ai

The promise

Custom apps for founders who cannot code, built by AI from reusable parts.

Why it died

Each US$20,000 project cost US$25,000 to US$35,000 to deliver, and offshore developers did most of the work that was sold as AI.

Died 2014 to 2022Burned US$14M

Metigy

The promise

AI marketing advice for small businesses that cannot pay a marketing team.

Why it died

It gave advice on a dashboard. Small businesses wanted the work done for them, and they left within 60 to 90 days.

Why it died

It signed more than 5 million merchants. Most sold very little, could not pay even US$10 a month, and left.

Why it died

It hired assistants faster than revenue grew, could not pay salaries in August 2015 and closed without notice.

Died 2008 to 2015Burned US$19M

Trada

The promise

Google advertising for small businesses, managed by outside experts.

Why it died

Human experts did not scale at a profit, and Google automated the same work inside its own tools.

What changed

Each of the five sold the work of a company function to people who could not do that work themselves. Each found that the work cost more than those customers could pay. Builder.ai used human developers behind an AI label. Zirtual and Trada used human staff. Dukaan and Metigy gave tools to customers who earned too little to stay.

The founder says that the models of late 2025 were the first that could use any tool and stay on a task without a person. Polsia does with a model what Builder.ai did with offshore staff, so one person can serve 20,000 paying users. The old problems did not go away. In March 2026 the model bill was about four times the subscription revenue. The founder says that half of new customers leave in the first month. Like Dukaan's merchants, most Polsia companies earn almost nothing: US$1.47 each in 30 days, on average. The founder says that the US$30 million lets him accept low margins and offer a free version.

05

Can one person copy it now?

The public fundraising, no. The measurement lesson, yes.

The growth came from one founder's public fundraising on X and a pre-seed round of US$1 million. The model bill was about US$1 million a month before revenue covered the costs. Few people can repeat that. What a reader can copy is smaller. Remove every step between an idea and a first result, and charge for usage on top of a subscription. A reader can also do the opposite of the counter: report subscriptions, one-time sales and customers' money as three separate numbers.

Where it is still open: Agents that do one function well for a small business that already has customers, for example bookkeeping, appointments or adverts for one trade. Such a customer has revenue to protect and a reason to stay.

  1. 1Let a new customer see a finished result before the first payment, with no setup.
  2. 2Sell a low subscription for the automatic work and credits for work on demand.
  3. 3Measure the cost of each task from the first day. Polsia's cost per task rose when customers' code bases grew.
  4. 4Publish recurring revenue, one-time revenue and pass-through money separately, with churn next to them.

What to watch

The risks are the mirror image of the causes above.

The famous number is not ARR

The counter was 12 times the last 30 days of all money received. Subscriptions were 47.5% of it in May 2026 and 60.9% in August. Advertising budgets and the sales of customers' companies pass through Polsia; most of that money is not Polsia's revenue.

Company-reported only

No payment processor, auditor or journalist has confirmed the revenue. The founder declined to show his Stripe account in an interview. The company changed the history of its counter once, to lower values, and removed the public dashboard by October 2026.

Half of new customers leave in the first month

The founder gives about 50% churn in month one and about 50% again in month two. The dashboard field showed 81.5% for the 30 days to 27 August 2026. A run rate assumes that the current month repeats twelve times, so new sign-ups must replace the customers who leave.

Costs were above revenue

In March 2026 the model cost was about four times the subscription revenue. The founder told the Wall Street Journal that he lost money on many accounts. The business now runs on cheaper open-source models and has US$30 million of investment. This page found no public figure for profit or loss.

Most customer companies earn nothing

The founder says that about 10% of companies earned at least one dollar. All customer companies together sold US$35,576 in the 30 days to 29 August 2026. A customer who pays every month and earns nothing has a reason to cancel.

Complaints and privacy

Reviewers report a Trustpilot score of 3.3 of 5, with 30% one-star reviews. The complaints are tasks marked as done but not delivered, credits used on failed tasks, and refunds refused. In March 2026 the live page exposed customers' chats and personal data. Agents have sent emails that customers did not approve.
