Turns any photo into a short video clip automatically

Lip sync — make a photo of a person "talk" in your video

Generates audio and sound effects to go with your video

Free plan — You get a small amount of free credits every day. Enough to try it out, but you will run out fast if you are serious about it.

Basic — About $9 per month. You get 150 credits. Good for casual use, but you are limited to the simpler video tools.

Pro — About $17 to $29 per month. You get 600 credits and access to ALL the fancy AI models including the most powerful ones (Sora 2, Veo 3.1, Kling 2.6). This is the sweet spot for most creators.

Creator — About $50 to $119 per month. You get 6,000 credits, 4K video quality, and can run 8 projects at the same time. Made for people running a real business with it.

How can you earn money with it?

Make video ads for small businesses:

Restaurants, salons, gyms, and online shops all need short video ads for Instagram and TikTok but have no idea how to make them.

You can make a 15-second product ad using just their product photo and Higgsfield.

Sell packs of video templates on Gumroad:

Pick a niche — real estate agents, fitness coaches, food trucks.

Create 15-20 ready-to-use video templates for that niche and sell the whole pack for $19 to $29 on Gumroad.

You make them once and sell them over and over again to different buyers. This is called a "digital product" and it can earn you money while you sleep.

Sends emails, texts, and messages on your behalf

Runs tasks on a schedule (like a morning briefing every day at 8am)

You can add "skills" to teach it new abilities (like connecting to your calendar, Todo list, Gmail, etc.)

 The software — FREE forever (it is open source, meaning anyone can use it and improve it)

  Beginner self-hosted setup — About $6 to $13 per month total (a cheap server + a budget AI model like Claude Haiku or GPT-4o-mini)

  Regular everyday use — About $15 to $30 per month in AI usage fees

  Power users or small businesses — $50 to $200+ per month

How can you earn money with it?

Automate lead generation for local businesses 

OpenClaw can automatically browse websites, find potential customers, research their details, and draft a personalized email to each one — all overnight while you sleep.

You set it up once, and it runs every day. Offer this as a "done-for-you lead generation service" to local businesses and charge $200 to $500 per month.

Offer OpenClaw setup as a service

Most people WANT a personal AI assistant but have no idea how to set one up.

You can learn the setup process (it takes a weekend) and then offer "I will set up and configure your personal AI assistant" as a service for $150 to $300 as a one-time fee. Post on Fiverr, Reddit, or local Facebook groups.

Turns your descriptions into stunning, realistic images in seconds

Edits your existing photos with plain-English instructions ("remove the background," "make her hair red," "add snow to this scene")

The free version is genuinely useful — not just a teaser

Free — Available right inside the Gemini app. You get a daily allowance of free image generations. More than enough to start a side income.

Google AI Plus or Pro — About $19.99 per month. Way more images per day, plus access to the even better Nano Banana Pro model (which is even smarter and higher resolution).

Sell personalized 3D figurine portraits on Etsy

The 3D figurine portrait trend is STILL massive.

People love getting a cute little toy-style version of themselves, their pets, their kids, or their favorite characters.

Offer custom figurine portraits on Etsy for $10 to $25 each. Someone sends you their photo, you run it through Nano Banana with the right prompt, and in 10 seconds you have a stunning figurine image to send back.

Create an AI brand character for small businesses 

Many small brands want a mascot or consistent character for their social media but cannot afford a graphic designer.

Use Nano Banana's character consistency feature to create a unique AI character (like a friendly mascot or lifestyle model) that always looks the same.

Offer to create 20 social media images per month featuring this character for $100 to $300 per month. This is a retainer — steady monthly income.

Handles entire multi-step projects from start to finish — not just answering one question

Can browse the web, read documents, write code, create slides, and analyze data — all in one task

Creates finished deliverables: full reports, slide decks, working code, spreadsheets, and websites

Free plan — You get 1,000 starter credits when you sign up, plus 300 free credits that reset every single day. Great for testing it out with smaller tasks.

Basic/Standard — About $19 to $20 per month. You get around 4,000 credits. Can handle 1 to 2 tasks at the same time. Good starting point for someone using it regularly.

Pro — About $39 per month. About 3,900 credits, 2 tasks at the same time, priority support. Best for someone using Manus as a real work tool.

How can you earn money with it?

Sell research reports on Fiverr

Businesses and entrepreneurs constantly need market research, competitor analysis, and industry reports — but they do not have time to do it themselves.

A good 8-page research report with comparison tables normally takes a human 4 to 6 hours. Manus does it in 15 minutes.

Offer "in-depth market research reports" on Fiverr for $50 to $200 each. Even on the Basic plan at $20/month, you can complete several reports a day. That is potentially hundreds of dollars in profit from a $20 investment.

The Business Starter Pack

Bundle multiple Manus outputs into one premium package. Tell a new business owner: "I will research your top 3 competitors, build you an analysis, and create a professional pitch deck — all for $150 to $500."

Manus handles all three tasks while you do something else. This whole package might take Manus 45 minutes. You could do multiple of these per day.

A curated collection of 200+ profitable opportunities spanning content creation, e-commerce, gaming, and emerging digital markets—each vetted for real-world potential

Step-by-step implementation guides designed for beginners, making AI accessible regardless of your technical background

Cutting-edge strategies aligned with current market trends, ensuring your ventures stay ahead of the curve

Generates a complete, beautiful presentation from a single sentence in 60 seconds

Creates documents, reports, proposals, and full websites too — not just slides

The Gamma Agent researches topics online and builds content automatically

 Free — You get 400 AI credits when you sign up. That is enough to create about 10 full presentations. The only catch is that your presentations will have a small "Made with Gamma" label on them.

  Plus — $8 per month (or $10 if you pay month-to-month). This removes the Gamma branding, gives you unlimited AI presentations, better image quality, and lets you add your own logo and colors.

  Pro — $15 per month (or $20 month-to-month). Everything in Plus, plus the most powerful AI models, detailed analytics showing who viewed your presentations and when, access to the developer API, and 10 custom web domains.

  Ultra — Most advanced option with 100 custom domains and early access to all new features. Pricing changes so check gamma.app for current details.

How can you earn money with it?

Create and sell presentation templates on Gumroad

Build 10 to 15 beautifully designed, niche-specific presentation templates — things like "SaaS startup pitch deck," "real estate listing presentation," "fitness coaching program overview," or "nonprofit grant proposal."

Package them as a bundle and sell on Gumroad for $19 to $39. You create them once and sell them to hundreds of people. This is called passive income — money that comes in while you are doing other things.

Build simple websites for local businesses

Gamma now creates full websites, not just presentations. Millions of local businesses still do not have a professional website in 2026.

Offer a "one-page business website in 24 hours" service for $150 to $300. Type the business info into Gamma, have it generate the site, customize the colors to match their brand, and share the link.
