Revid.ai makes short-form videos, vertical videos of some seconds to a few minutes for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. The user gives an idea, a link or an existing viral video. The product writes a script, calls video-generation models (programs such as Seedance, Veo or Sora that produce moving images from a text description), adds a voice, captions and music, and posts the result. Customers pay a subscription that includes credits, units that are spent on each second of generated video, so a customer who generates more pays more.

Thibault (Tibo) Louis-Lucas, a French engineer who had already sold an earlier software business, took over a small product-video tool named Typeframes from its maker in September 2023; he later gave the price as US$50,000. In April 2024 he forked it, which means he copied the code to start a second product, and named the copy Revid. Revid reached US$10,000 of MRR (monthly recurring revenue, the sum of all subscription payments for one month) at its Product Hunt launch on 24 June 2024. On 18 February 2026 he wrote that it made US$680,000 a month with a team of 4, the highest figure he has published. On 28 September 2026 he wrote that it generates US$500,000 a month; that latest figure is the headline of this page. Revid is the largest of the seven products of his studio TMAKER, and he wrote in March 2026 that all products together had passed US$1 million a month. This page keeps the two figures apart.

Every Revid number on this page is a founder statement, or a value read from a chart that he published, grade C. No payment processor and no buyer has confirmed them, and Revid has no profile on TrustMRR. One smaller product of the same studio, SuperX, does have a TrustMRR profile verified through Stripe, and its verified revenue agrees with its line on the founder's chart. The page also lists the fall of about 26% between the February and the September figure, two founder statements about costs that do not agree with each other, the platform rules on mass-produced AI video, and four earlier companies that failed with a similar promise.

The numbers, graded

Each row shows the evidence grade and the source numbers from the list at the end of this page. The grades are explained in How Aiolum verifies.

A product-video tool taken over in September 2023 for US$50,000, forked into Revid in April 2024, reported at US$680,000 a month in February 2026 and at US$500,000 a month in September 2026, all self-reported

Team on Revid, February 20264 peopleCFounder's post. The About page names two founders, Thibault Louis-Lucas (CEO) and Nicolas Coutureau (CTO). Latka counts 4 employees on LinkedIn in July 2025. The About page says that both founded the company in 2023, but on 30 April 2024 the founder was still looking in public for a technical co-founder, so the date when Coutureau joined is not verified. The names of the other two people were not found, and no count after February 2026 was found.[2, 6, 8, 26]

How to read this table: a grade C value is a founder statement, a value read by eye from a chart that he published, or an estimate by a third party that says so. A "calc" value was computed on this page from the rows above it. The one grade A value is payment-processor data for SuperX, another product of the same studio; it is not a Revid figure.

The page shows Growth as reduced from US$99 to US$39, with the words "Discount locked in forever". A Hobby plan is shown at the same US$39 with a shorter feature list and no stated credit amount. The company's About page also names an Elite plan at US$89 a month, which the pricing page did not show on that day. Plan credits refill each month and do not accumulate; Credit Boost packs are one-time purchases that do not expire. Credits are spent per second of generated video: 15 credits for 5 seconds with the cheapest model, 100 credits for 5 seconds with Seedance 2.5 or Veo 3, 130 with Sora 2.

The timeline

From a product-video tool taken over for US$50,000 to US$500,000 a month, in 36 months, after a higher figure in February 2026. Each entry carries its grade.

  1. 2022CLouis-Lucas and his co-founder sell Tweet Hunter and Taplio to lempire; that sale is another story on this site. He writes later that he left lempire in 2024 and started again with no investors. Another of his posts gives 2024 as the year of the sale. [5, 3]
  2. September 2023CHe takes over Typeframes, a tool that makes product videos from text, from its maker, who had stopped working on it. He later gives the price as US$50,000; in 2024 he says the deal included a share of future revenue, so that he did not pay the full value in cash. He changes the product to subscriptions. [7, 1]
  3. December 2023CTypeframes reaches US$4,000 of MRR. He calls it a side project and hires one developer for it. [7]
  4. April 2024CHe forks Typeframes into Revid, for short social videos. On 30 April the two products together make more than US$8,000 of MRR, and he looks in public for a technical co-founder who will work for low pay and equity. [6, 8]
  5. 24 June 2024CProduct Hunt launch of Revid at US$10,000 of MRR. He writes that he started work on Typeframes nine months before. [9, 10]
  6. 22 August 2024CMost new subscriptions now come through Revid. Both products share one code base, one database and one set of subscriptions, and he asks his followers if he should close Typeframes. [11]
  7. 11 September 2024CIndie Hackers reports that Revid, Feather and SuperX together make about US$28,000 a month. [12]
  8. January 2025CThe 30-day revenue of Revid is about US$95,000 on the founder's chart. [2]
  9. July to August 2025CThe first fall on the chart: from about US$345,000 to about US$318,000 in one month, then growth again. [2]

  12. 9 March 2026CHe writes that his five products together passed US$1 million a month. On the chart, Revid is about US$660,000 of it. [3]
  13. 26 April 2026CA podcast interview with Peter Yang: Revid alone makes more than US$600,000 a month. [4]
  14. 27 May 2026CHe asks who would buy shares of his holding company and writes that the products together make US$1 million a month "with very decent margin". [21]
  15. August 2026CRevid cuts the credit price of AI video by half because, he writes, the models got cheaper. He says the product was rebuilt around a library of viral videos, and that most of the AI video tools he has advised, at least 7, "dipped" in the last six months. [17, 18, 19]
  16. 15 September 2026CHe buys an advertisement on TrustMRR that tells customers of a competitor, Higgsfield, to change to Revid. The site owner removes it after 13 minutes and refunds him. [24]
  17. 28 September 2026CHe writes that the tool he acquired for US$50,000 now generates US$500,000 a month. That is below the figures of February and April. [1]
  18. 13 October 2026CRevid is running: 101,491 payments since 10 November 2025, and the pricing page is live. His site still describes the studio as a US$1 million a month portfolio, the same round figure as in March. [20, 13, 30]
03

Why it worked

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

01

Distribution

Three channels fed the product. The founder has more than 210,000 followers on X and posts each launch and each figure there. The site carries many free tools, each made for one search query, for example an MP3 to MP4 converter or a TikTok script generator, so that people who search Google for a small task land on Revid. And the other products of the studio send customers to each other.

02

Start from a product that already has users

He did not start from an empty repository. Typeframes had users, a brand and a working video editor, and its maker had stopped working on it. The price was US$50,000, and the deal included a share of future revenue, so he did not pay the full value in cash.

03

Follow what customers do, not the plan

Typeframes was sold for product launch videos. A founder needs one of those per launch, so subscriptions ended after one month. Customers were using the editor for short social videos, which a business needs every week. Revid was built for that use from the same code, and by August 2024 most new subscriptions came through it.

04

Credits priced per second

Each second of generated video costs credits, and each credit has a price. At the stated model cost of US$0.10 per second, a Growth customer pays US$0.39 for that second. Competitors sell plans named unlimited; Revid states a price per second, refunds failed generations, and cut the price by half in August 2026 when the models got cheaper.

05

A studio of small teams

TMAKER runs seven products. The founder calls the people who build them with him co-makers and counted 7 of them in September 2026. Revid has its own CTO co-founder. The products use each other: Outrank writes the Revid blog, and Revid makes the videos for the other products.

How it was built

These details come from the founder's posts, a podcast interview and the company's own pages. They are grade C. [8, 11, 6, 14, 18]

  • The video editor is built on Remotion, a library that renders video from React code, with Next.js for the web application. The April 2024 post asks for a co-founder who is an expert in both.
  • Revid and Typeframes ran on one code base, one database and one set of subscriptions, with conditions in the code that changed the feature set for each brand.
  • The video itself comes from rented models: Seedance 2.5, MiniMax Hailuo H3, Wan 3.0, Google Veo 3 and OpenAI Sora 2, chosen per scene. The founder writes that every competitor has access to the same models.
  • A library of about 2.77 million viral short videos with public engagement data (snapshot of 15 September 2026) is used to choose the hook and the format before a video is generated.
  • Publishing uses the official TikTok, YouTube and Instagram integrations. Payments go through Stripe.
  • Every function is also available through a public API, an MCP server and a command-line tool, so that AI agents can order videos without the web interface.

The dead that came before

Four companies in the Loot Drop database promised automatic or easy video for everyone, or built a tool that posts media to social networks owned by other companies. The values below are from that database and are not independently verified.

Died 2010 to 2015Burned US$10M

Qwiki

The promise

Automatic narrated videos made from text, images and voice, in place of a page of search results.

Why it died

High running costs and no revenue model. Yahoo bought it in 2013 and later closed it.

The promise

Tools to combine text, images and video into one story and share it on any platform.

Why it died

It was built for the web when users moved to phone apps such as Instagram, and it could not raise more money.

CompetitionLoot Drop entry ↗

What changed

Qwiki produced narrated videos from text in 2010 and closed because each video cost too much to make and nobody paid for it. Tout and Mixed Media Labs gave consumers free tools and lost them to the social networks. Pixelpipe posted to networks that later closed their APIs and added the same function themselves. All four depended on platforms that they did not own, and none had a paying customer with a repeating need.

Three things differ for Revid. First, the customer is a business that needs new videos every week as marketing and pays from US$39 a month. Second, the video is made by models that are rented per second, so the cost of a video is known before it is made and is charged to the customer through credits. Third, TikTok, YouTube and Instagram now offer official publishing integrations. The dependence has not gone: the models belong to a few providers and the audience belongs to the platforms, and both set rules that Revid must follow. Two similar products on this site, Faceless.video (US$1 million a year, August 2024) and AutoShorts.ai (US$97,000 a month, May 2025), sell automated faceless channels to creators. Revid reports about five times the AutoShorts figure, sells mainly to founders and small businesses, and charges by the second.

05

Can one person copy it now?

The method, yes. The size, not without his audience.

Each step of the method is open to one person: take over a small product that its maker has left, watch what customers do with it, and build for that use. The size is another matter. The founder had money from an earlier sale, more than 210,000 followers on X, and a studio whose products send customers to each other. He also writes that every AI video tool now has the same models, and Revid's own figure fell by about a quarter between February and September 2026.

Where it is still open: Small tools with users and no active maker, in fields that new models have just changed: audio, music video, product photography, presentations.

  1. 1Look for a small product with users whose maker has stopped working on it, and offer a share of its future revenue so that you need little cash.
  2. 2Charge from the first day, and change one-time licenses to subscriptions if the use repeats.
  3. 3Find the use that customers return for every week, and build a separate product for it from the same code.
  4. 4Build one free tool for each search query that your customers type into Google.
  5. 5Price by usage when each use has a real cost, and lower the price when your cost falls.

What to watch

The risks are the mirror image of the causes above.

Self-reported, and the word MRR is used loosely

All Revid figures are the founder's posts and his own charts. The chart behind the US$680,000 figure is titled 30-day revenue, which can include one-time credit packs, and its last point reads about US$660,000. TrustMRR, which verifies revenue through payment processors, answered "Not found" for the names revid, revid-ai, revidai and tmaker on 13 October 2026. The September 2026 figure of US$500,000 is a round number in a post that promotes the product. Latka's estimate for July 2025 is about one ninth of the founder's figure. The one outside check is indirect: the Stripe-verified revenue of SuperX agrees with its line on the same chart.

Revenue has fallen since February 2026

The founder's own figures go down: US$680,000 on 18 February 2026, about US$660,000 on his chart of 9 March, "more than US$600,000" on 26 April, and US$500,000 on 28 September, a fall of about 26% in seven months. From March to September 2026 he describes the whole studio with the same figure, US$1 million a month, while the list of products grew from five to seven. In August 2026 he wrote that most of the AI video tools he advised "dipped" in the last six months, and he cut Revid's credit prices by half. On 20 July 2026 he wrote that churn has cost the studio more growth than anything else. His chart also shows a fall of about 8% in the summer of 2025, after which growth returned; no source shows yet if it returns this time.

Two cost statements that do not agree

On 8 August 2026 he wrote that he spends more than US$300,000 a month on AI models. On 5 September 2026 he listed the spending of the whole studio for August: US$269,250 in total, of which US$68,000 for AI and APIs. Both cannot be exact. The lines of the second list also add up to US$17,000 less than its total. Profit has not been published; the only statement is "very decent margin".

Every video is bought from a few model providers

By the founder's figures, a 30-second video costs about US$3 in model fees, and a customer makes 3 to 10 attempts for one good result. Google's public price list on 13 October 2026 gives US$0.40 per second for Veo 3.1 Standard and US$0.10 for Veo 3.1 Fast; a Growth customer pays Revid US$0.39 per second for Veo 3, and Revid does not say which version it buys or at what price. If customers spend all their credits on the most expensive models, the margin on a plan can be small. The founder also states that all competitors rent the same models, so the video quality is no protection.

YouTube does not pay for mass-produced video

YouTube's monetization policy page, read 13 October 2026, says that since 15 July 2025 the rule once named "repetitious content" is named "inauthentic content" and covers content that is "repetitive or mass-produced". Its examples of content that cannot earn money include AI-generated content made with generic templates and image slideshows with little narrative. Revid sells Auto-Mode workers that create a new video on a schedule and can post it, and names operators of faceless channels among its customers. A customer who expects advertising income from such a channel is the case this rule describes.

TikTok labels AI video and limits automation

TikTok's Community Guidelines, effective 24 September 2026, require a clear label when AI is used to show realistic people or scenes, list "Using automation to run many accounts or send repetitive content" as spam, and keep low-quality or unoriginal content out of the For You feed. Revid posts through the official integrations, so a change in these rules or in the integrations changes the product on the same day.

One founder, seven products, mixed reviews

The founder wrote in August 2026 that he still does customer support on all 6 products, and a seventh was launched in September. Revid's own page reports 4.0 of 5 on Trustpilot from 301 reviews. The Product Hunt page shows 4.1 from 7 reviews, with complaints about credits, reliability and support. A competitor, Higgsfield, bought five sponsor places on TrustMRR for US$7,495 a month in September 2026, which shows what rivals spend on marketing.

AI generator of faceless short and long videos · USA

Vid.AI

Evidence A
US$826,663still running, revenue falling · 25 months after launch
The product

A web application that turns an idea or a script into a finished video in which no person appears on camera: a script written by a language model, a synthetic voice, stock footage or AI images, captions and music. It makes vertical shorts and horizontal videos of up to 20 minutes, and it can upload to a YouTube channel that the customer connects. Customers pay a monthly or yearly subscription that includes credits. There is no free plan and no free trial.

Why it worked

A developer in Bangalore formed a company with an American YouTuber who already had an audience of people who want faceless channels, so customers paid from the first day. Affiliates receive 33% of every payment and brought about a tenth of all revenue, and Meta ads brought more. Nobody could use the product without paying, so no free user consumed paid AI models. Verified revenue reached about US$85,000 a month for six months, and then fell by half.

Faceless short videos made and posted on a schedule · France

StoryShort

Evidence A
US$216,036still running, revenue falling · 27 months after launch
The product

An AI tool that writes, makes and posts short "faceless" videos for TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels: script, AI images or clips, voiceover, music and captions. It also makes long videos of 8 to 10 minutes, AI UGC ads and talking avatars, and it can rebuild a video that did well for another creator.

Why it worked

It sells a channel instead of a single video: a series picks the topic, makes the video and posts it every day. Growth came from ads and from affiliates who keep 30% of each payment for life, and the founder swaps in new video models when better ones appear.

AI film generator and editor that works from one sentence · United States

Koe

Evidence A
US$88,224still running, revenue falling · 6 months after launch
The product

A web app that writes a storyboard from one sentence, keeps the characters the same from scene to scene, generates each scene with video models rented from other companies (LTX, Kling, Seedance), and lets the user edit and export the film. Users pay with prepaid credits, on plans from US$12 to US$600 a month.

Why it worked

It put the newest video models, among them ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 from 14 April 2026, inside a storyboard editor that keeps characters consistent. Revenue grew from US$645 in May 2026 to US$32,697 in July. Then it fell by three quarters by September, and no source says why.

AI presentation generator and Google Slides add-on · India

MagicSlides

Evidence A
US$722,575still running, revenue falling · 45 months after launch
The product

A user gives a topic, a text, a PDF, a web address or a YouTube link, and a language model writes a slide presentation from it. MagicSlides runs as an add-on inside Google Slides and as a web application that exports editable PowerPoint, PDF and Google Slides files. Since July 2026 the same account also includes AI tools for spreadsheets, documents, meeting notes and a design canvas, under the name Magic Suite.

Why it worked

It appeared in January 2023 inside Google Slides, a program where people already work, when writing slides from one sentence was new, and users showed it to each other without paid advertising. A blog about presentation topics then brought about 80% of new users from Google search, by the founder's account. Both channels weakened: search traffic fell, and Google added the same function to Slides. The verified total is real, and so is the fall: monthly revenue fell by half between February and July 2026.

Open-source social media scheduler for people and AI agents · Israel, company registered in Hong Kong

Postiz

Evidence A
US$3Mstill running, revenue growing · 27 months after launch
The product

A calendar that publishes posts to more than 30 social networks: X, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, Bluesky, Discord and others. The whole code is open source, so anyone can run it on their own server for free; the company sells the hosted version from US$29 a month. Since 2025 AI agents such as Claude, ChatGPT and OpenClaw can connect to it through an MCP server, a command-line tool and a public API, so an agent drafts and schedules the posts and a person approves them in the calendar.

Why it worked

The founder took a twenty-year-old product category with no open-source entry and open-sourced all of it, which gave him millions of Docker downloads and 37,000 GitHub stars without a marketing budget. Revenue stayed small for a year. It multiplied when he turned the product toward people who automate their posting with n8n workflows and, from late 2025, with AI agents, which need an API-first scheduler and keep paying because they post without human effort.

SoundBoost.ai

Evidence A
US$217,705still running, revenue growing · 32 months after launch
The product

A website and phone app that masters a song from a written request such as "warm, powerful and wide stereo". Each request comes back as a new revision that the user can compare with the earlier ones, and a Spotify link can serve as the reference for loudness and tone. The same subscription includes a splitter that separates a song into vocals, drums, bass and instruments. Since September 2026 the company also offers a generator that makes a music video from the song. Unlimited use costs US$16 a month or US$48 a year on the web.

Why it worked

For its first 20 months the product brought in about US$3,500 a month. Then three things came together: phone apps with weekly plans from August 2025, web plans with unlimited use at US$4 a month billed yearly, and a new group of customers, people who make songs with AI generators such as Suno and need the last step done for them. Monthly revenue rose 7.2 times between January and July 2026. No source states which of the changes caused the rise.
