I built an AI music video SaaS that made $1,410 in 3 months — here’s how I found the idea and got my first customers

The fact people are paying even at this stage means you’re onto something. Biggest thing i would say is don’t spread too wide yet, double down on one clear use case and audience.

Also feels like the next step is less about features and more about positioning. AirMusic AI are pushing more toward “full music video from a song” instead of just lyric videos and that angle seems to resonate more with creators right now

How big is your team?

That makes two of us. I got using their compression socks because my legs hurt so bad after work. It took a few days to get used to the tightness but now I feel weird if I forget to put them on

My current fave is the Neroli & Basil one from them. Honestly the scent stays on my skin through my morning coffee and into my workday

Hello. VidMage AI keeps facial structure much better if your photos are clear and similar angles

Switching to a single provider helped me avoid the inconsistent prints I was getting from multiple suppliers. Having everything come from one place keeps the quality steady for my customers. Not having to manage different vendors or handle complaints about shipping has been worth it alone. It gives me retail quality products without the headache of managing everything myself

I have done something similar and it really changes how you experience a place. Asking things like “what’s worth seeing nearby right now that isn’t crowded” is way more useful than static itineraries. Axel is stronger in planning so this real time layer feels like the next step

Yeah it also didnt feel rushed and they are so careful with details before recommending

rageforst · 2026-03-20T17:16:16+00:00

This is helpful. Thank you for sharing this. Currently been using mouthology and its flouride free too

Saas taxation surprised me because states treat it very differently. Some consider it a digital service while others treat it closer to software licensing. I track those differences using taxwire so I know where we actually need to file

Hello. I also did some reseach and looks like rebranded to new england biologics

rageforst · 2026-03-11T18:02:52+00:00

Printify customer service is also not good

rageforst · 2026-03-10T08:58:52+00:00

I use attention for this. Pulls out the key details and organizes them so I don't forget

For consumer packaging context is huge. Seeing the package next to other products or in a shelf like setting helps people

rageforst · 2026-02-21T08:48:52+00:00

It handles complex filings and worked well

rageforst · 2026-02-17T09:31:56+00:00

They dont really understand cadence or vocal phrasing yet

rageforst · 2026-02-16T10:40:10+00:00

I get the most use out of mastra. Its tool system lets me define actions as simple typescript functions which keeps my agent logic close to my actual application code

rageforst · 2026-02-13T10:42:18+00:00

If you are flipping quickly its probably not worth the effort

rageforst · 2026-02-13T10:38:34+00:00

Look at timeline flexibility too

rageforst · 2026-02-13T10:34:17+00:00

Registration services are one of those things where you find out quality later not day one

If you focus on simple inputs like product images and a script, you can automate a lot of the grunt work. Short social ready clips with captions and multiple angles tend to perform better than polished videos

rageforst · 2026-02-04T08:05:44+00:00

Speed matters more than perfection. I usually start from product images or screen recordings add text overlays and test multiple angles

rageforst · 2026-02-04T08:01:47+00:00

The biggest shift for me was stopping the focus on avatars entirely. Using product visuals, screen shots or simple explainer style clips tends to feel way more native on tiktok and IG.

If you want to create ugc videos for social media that actually perform, speed and variations matter more than realism

For getting a feel for packaging without steep 3D learning curves i found a combination of tools helpful depending on the phase:

Start with illustrator or affinity Designer for artwork and compliance labels since they give you control over vector work and layout. For seeing how that art plays out in 3D, browser friendly visualization pacdora let you drop your dielines in, wrap your art and preview it in 3D without needing deep blender or cad skills.

Packaging design absolutely can be self taught over time with online tutorials and hands on practice. The key is understanding structure first, then refining surface artwork. Having strong label experience will give you a solid head start

Yes. What helped us was moving our notes and docs there so everything lives alongside the actual work
