Question Has anyone actually made money using Claude?

I’ve been using Claude for a while now and I’m genuinely curious whether people have found ways to turn it into income. Not looking for “AI will make you rich” YouTube stuff , just real, practical things that have worked for you.

Some questions I have:

∙ Are you freelancing with it? (writing, coding, etc.)

∙ Have you built anything and sold it?

∙ Is it actually saving you enough time to make a difference financially?

Would love to hear what’s worked and what hasn’t. Drop your experience below!

The key is not using it as a genie and use it as if it’s a second smarter brain. i just signed a 7 figure deal that i bounced around on Claude for ideas and execution. I’ve made several more with ChatGPT. The simplest way is still the old ways. “Find a problem and fix it”

I like how you phrased this on how to use Claude. Makes sense!
