<p>My platform turns simple text prompts or uploaded assets into professional animated videos: charts, kinetic typography, data visualizations and motion graphics, in minutes. It is built for creators, marketers and educators who want studio-quality animation without design skills. It started as a tool to make motion graphics for our own content and grew into a self-serve SaaS with templates, brand styles, an editor, HD/4K MP4 export and an API.</p><p><b>Key highlights</b></p><ul> <li>Annual revenue (TTM, Oct 2025 - Sep 2026): $15,000 gross, verified in Dodo Payments</li> <li>Annual profit (TTM): $9,400</li> <li>Last month: $770 revenue, $510 profit</li> <li>Churn rate: 10%+ monthly (monthly plans)</li> <li>LTV: about $50 per paying customer ($15.7k lifetime gross / 315 customers)</li> <li>CAC: near zero, growth was organic</li> <li>Business margin: about 62</li> <li>121,341 registered users, 96,666 videos generated, 315 paying customers, 598 payments, 0.5% chargeback rate.</li> </ul> <p><b>Team</b></p><p>Founder-run.

Infrastructure is in Terraform.</p><p><b>Marketing and growth</b></p><p>Growth came from organic content (social video and SEO). Monthly visitors went from 3k (Oct 2025) to 29k (Dec 2025). Revenue peaked at $2.8k/month in Jan 2026. When marketing stopped, traffic and revenue declined to today's levels. Paid acquisition was never run at scale.</p><p><b>Revenue and profit</b></p><p>Subscriptions via Dodo Payments: Mini $10, Basic $20, Pro $35, Max $70 per month, yearly plans 20% off. </p><ul> <li>Lifetime gross $15,674, net after fees and refunds $12,711. </li> </ul> <ul> <li>MRR about $770, ARR about $9,000, about 30 active subscribers. </li> </ul> <p>Costs: AWS usage $100-250/month (mostly covered by AWS credits so far), model/API providers 10-15% of revenue. Full monthly P&amp;L available on request.</p><p><b>Return on investment</b></p><p>At TTM profit the payback is about 3.2 years; at today's run rate it is longer. A buyer who restores marketing to early-2026 levels ($1.5k-2.8k/month revenue) brings payback to about 1.5-3 years.</p><p><b>Startup assets</b></p><ul> <li>Full codebase (frontend, backend, infrastructure as code)</li> <li>Domain and brand</li> <li>User database with 121k registered accounts</li> <li>78 motion graphics templates</li> <li>Social media accounts and marketing materials</li> <li>Live subscribers and payment setup handover</li> </ul> <p><b>Risks</b></p><ul> <li>Revenue is declining since January 2026; it needs marketing to grow again.</li> <li>Dependence on third-party AI model providers and their pricing.</li> <li>AWS credits will run out; budget $100-250/month for AWS.</li> <li>Monthly churn is high, typical of creator tools; yearly plans and onboarding improvements reduce it.</li> </ul> <p><b>Summary</b></p><p>A working, profitable AI motion graphics product with real demand (121k users, 315 paying customers) and a low cost base.
