Method and limits
- Sample: AI businesses we cover that have a TrustMRR-verified listing. It is not a random sample of all AI businesses; verified listings skew toward founders who share revenue publicly, and we picked businesses worth studying (mostly $10k+ MRR). Do not read the median as "typical AI startup revenue".
- MRR, subscriptions and all-time revenue come from the processor via TrustMRR. Some listings sync less often; see each case for its date.
- $/sub = MRR ÷ active subscriptions (our calculation). Medians are ours.
- Full method: how we verify. Rows: leaderboard. Analysis: pricing study.
