Luna Vega · How I Made $6,530 selling Mini Apps using AI (The Exact System) ↗
What It Is
You use AI to build a small app around one habit, such as drinking water or a skincare routine, where a cute character grows when the user keeps going and looks sad when they miss a day. You sell it by subscription and promote it with written posts on Threads that make people feel understood, question what they've tried, and then want your solution.
The Pitch
Luna says she made zero from her first app, then studied about 1,700 apps and changed one thing, making $6,530 in a single week. She says the habit-pet app Finch is estimated to make around $3.7 million a month.
Who It’s Best For
Builders who also enjoy writing social posts every day and can stick to one narrow idea.
The Truth (as we see it)
Luna says plainly that her results aren't typical because she's been at this a while. App numbers like Finch's are outside estimates, and about 14,000 new apps launch every month, so getting noticed is the hard part. Luna sells her paid AI Profit Lab membership in the video.
