Cause of death: the autopsy
The closest example claimed $18.7M in annual revenue, yet only about 10% of its companies made even $1, 29k were active of 485k created, and about 41% of that revenue wasn't recurring. Of 27k businesses on another such platform, 0.59% ever earned anything ($10.8k in total). The report's verdict: it makes money for the platform, from hope; prove profit on the farm's own few businesses first.
The numbers
None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.
Could rise again if
If the farm first proves a real profit and loss on its own few businesses.
Evidence
- 00: The money-making harness. What exists, what we're missing, what to build
- Harness report 03: the infrastructure a money-making harness needs
- 09a: The market for "an AI agent swarm that runs a business / does the work"
- 09b: Could we sell the swarm's market research? And which narrow "swarm-as-a-service" products should it sell?
- 09: "If we release a money maker like Pluribus, can it succeed? What is the minimum that works?" (synthesis)
