Stripe: solopreneurs earning over 1 million dollars more than doubled from 2023 to 2025; ChatPRD runs on nine agents and one human
Stripe reports that solopreneurs earning more than 1 million dollars more than doubled between 2023 and 2025, with those above 5 and 10 million nearly tripling, though Stripe does not attribute the growth solely to AI. The article profiles Claire Vo of ChatPRD, which serves over 100,000 users with nine AI agents and herself as the only full-time employee, and Vlad Stan of Kubrio, its sole employee. The cases show agents as leverage on top of existing distribution, not as a starting point.
