Spent the last few months studying how AI apps generate revenue. Not pitch deck theory, actual working models.
7 keep showing up: subscription tiers, usage-based pricing, freemium, intent-based ads, API marketplace, outcome-based pricing, and hybrid stacking.
The pattern: no successful AI company relies on one stream. They stack 2-3 together.
Full breakdown of each model in a LinkedIn carousel I just posted.

작성자는 'per seat'(사용자당 과금) 소프트웨어 판매 모델이 에이전트 시대에는 의미가 없다고 주장합니다. 일부 사용자는 다른 사용자보다 10배, 100배, 1000배 이상 토큰을 소비하게 되어 과금 불균형과 기술 발전에 따른 불평등이 심화될 것이라는 전망을 제기합니다.

the “per seat” software sales model makes no sense in the agentic era where some people will effectively spend 10, 100, 1000x more tokens than others, and the inequalities will intensify as the technology gets better

Dann lasst uns doch alle wieder #Alkoholiker werden, liebe #Brauer. Der #Brauerbund klagt über Absatzprobleme. Warum? Weil Bürger:innen #Fitness vor #Zellgift und #Sucht stellen und lieber kein #Bier mehr #saufen. Sie diffamieren Gesundheits- als #Alkoholpolitik. Zynismus pur. Bei aller Liebe, aber wenn Euch die Leute eine Absage erteilen, weil #Alkohol schlichtweg schädlich ist, dann jammert nicht rum! Stattdessen innoviert Euere #Businessmodels. #Alkoholfrei ist das Gebot der Stunde!

Anthropic spent over $8M on Super Bowl ads mocking ChatGPT's advertising model, promising Claude would stay ad-free. Sam Altman's lengthy response escalating from "dishonest" to "authoritarian" suggests the campaign hit its target. The underlying question remains unanswered: how do AI labs build sustainable business models when inference costs remain high?
