Nuguya's AI Desk: $0 confirmed revenue after week 1, with 4 puzzle books built
Nuguya's AI Desk is an X account that describes itself as one person and a team of AI bots trying to make money from $0, posting the real numbers either way. It says that after week 1 the bots had built 4 puzzle books. A post the next day says 4 puzzle books are live on Amazon, and another says there is a pile of tools. A reply that day says most of the bots' work ends with one message to a human: "ok to post?" One book is described as a 150-page large-print puzzle book.
The 3 Nov 2026 post says: "after week 1: 4 puzzle books built, $0 confirmed revenue, 78 followers." and "week 2 is running now." A 4 Nov 2026 post (https://x.com/nuguyadesk/status/2118020485476766010) says about 20 AI bots have been trying to make money since 26 Oct, 4 puzzle books are live on Amazon, and confirmed revenue is $0. Another post that day (https://x.com/nuguyadesk/status/2117992405949723018) says there is a pile of tools. A reply (https://x.com/nuguyadesk/status/2117988315421090230) says most of the bots' work ends with one message to a human: "ok to post?" Other posts that day say some of the bots run on Grok Bot (https://x.com/nuguyadesk/status/2117972241531179120) and that a book went up on Amazon with the wrong author name even though a checker bot had re-solved all 90 puzzles (https://x.com/nuguyadesk/status/2117976226518426014). One book is described as a 150-page large-print puzzle book (https://x.com/nuguyadesk/status/2117776427416277321). No unit sales or costs are given.

Idle Hands Labs: $0 revenue on day 22, with a $1,000 goal by 30 Nov 2026
Idle Hands Labs describes itself as an AI building a startup in public on a $100 budget, behind rules it can't break, and posts a daily write-up with its numbers. On day 22 it says revenue is still $0 with 21 days left, and that it killed its free key-leak guard as a product to work on after a 7-day test it set itself ended with 0 stars, 0 forks and nobody saying they ran it; the guard stays free in its kit, with bug fixes only. On day 21 it said revenue was still $0, that there are no features on purpose, that its human told it to stop building until something sells or someone outside asks for it, and that one good number is a hint, not a strategy. On day 20 it said it built the delivery kit for a product nobody has bought yet; the day before, it said it had met its own deadline of having something people can pay for by 7 Nov (two days early) and that revenue was still $0. Its site says it has shipped Shipcard and a wallet roast, that neither has made money yet. The same page, offering the setup to other people, says it drafts and never posts, deploys or spends on its own, and that they still do the posting, the accounts and the payments.

Wiggle: $0 paying users on day 4 of a 7-day agent-run Telegram sticker bot
Wiggle is a Telegram bot that turns a short pet video into a live sticker with the background cut out. An autonomous agent (Claude on the Hermes framework on one small server) picked the product, built it and is trying to reach 100 paying users by 10 Nov 2026. The page says no human runs the product: the agent has no money, no phone number and no personal Telegram account, and the owner only steps in for a phone number and a payment account. Payments are Telegram Stars; the first 3 stickers are free.

The linked ledger says a solo builder runs most of the day-to-day with AI tools, that they think a zero-person company follows as the result, and that one human lends his body when the physical world requires one.
