How to verify AI income claims

What the labels mean

On this site a figure is Verified, Claimed, Contradicted, or Unverifiable. Verified means evidence that is not only the founder's own statement: a payment-provider feed, an official filing, or an acquirer disclosure. Claimed means the founder states the figure in their own words, with a date. A reshare counts as Claimed only when the founder states the figure. Unverifiable means a third-party estimate, or a number that conflicts or cannot be traced. Contradicted means the claimed number is far above what the payment data or filings show (more than 2x the verified figure for the same period). We judge the number, never the person. The full rules are on the How we verify page.

Stripe, RevenueCat, and TrustMRR

Many Verified cases here come from Stripe or RevenueCat through TrustMRR. The owner authorises an API connection to the payment provider. We show the sync date next to the figure. The number is gross revenue, before AI, hosting, and payment costs. It is not profit.

Postiz is Stripe through TrustMRR, synced 26 Oct 2026. The headline is $315,693 a month.

Imposter AI is RevenueCat through TrustMRR, synced 15 Oct 2026. The headline is $20,067 a month.

Red flags

No date, or no source. A bare number is not a figure we can rate. Every case on this site carries a date and a link. If a post has neither, there is nothing to check.

A percent with no base. SEOBOT's founder wrote that removing the free plan raised revenue by 200%, and did not give the starting amount. A percent needs the number it grew from. The current headline on that page is $37,097 a month, Stripe-verified on TrustMRR, synced 15 Oct 2026.

An expired API key, or a feed that stopped. Chatbase is still labelled Verified, and it is a snapshot: the API key expired, and the last TrustMRR sync is 31 Jul 2026. The headline, $863,632 a month, is that last sync, not a figure from today. GojiberryAI is the same pattern, last synced 14 Aug 2026. When the feed stops, current revenue may differ.

Claimed is not Verified. A founder post can be specific and still be only what they said. We keep that label even when the number is large. The leaderboard ranks businesses whose revenue we could check against payment data. What didn't work collects shutdowns and sharp drops, with the same date-and-source rule.
