Doable, but don't build the tenth Career Hound.Of ten generic English job tools, only two passed $5,000/mo, and they won on paid creator videos and funnels, not scrapers. Go after industries or countries where jobs really are hidden in private networks. Skip the cheating-in-interviews half.Maybe · grade and headline derived from the full write-up · next review 12-01
| Background | Career Hound scrapes company career pages and charges weekly, self-reporting $25k/mo. Nine copycats this year |
|---|---|
| Upside | Private-pool jobs that never make it onto job boards: a Brazilian doctors' on-call group reached $2,003/month and is still doubling |
| Demand | Those paying are people desperate to leave a bad job (13.6%); entry-level 1.5–2.3% |
| Competition | Ten clones of the same product, eight at October ≤$3,346, and seven of those under $400 |
| Revenue | DirectRoles October: $27,764. The original's monthly churn is 31% with an LTV of about $50. |
| Growth | The original: a $20-a-clip short video of an older creator. None of the ten companies show up as running ads on Meta, TikTok or Google. |
| Window | The generic English job slot is closed; a few scattered picks remain by industry or country, first come first served |
| Who it's for | Someone inside a specific industry circle who knows AI extraction, or a sales-led founder who can manage creators |

- 11-08Whis AI ($49.99/mo, real-time interview answer help) grew its daily revenue from $3,701 to $5,651 in 30 days. Subscriptions rose from 101 to 148, and it passed $5,000 for the first time. Real-time answering tools carry high platform and employer backlash risk, so I still wouldn't follow this one.
- 11-07The interview-cheating half got another data point: Whis AI (real-time interview answers, $49.99/mo) passed $30 in revenue for the first time in 5,000 days, reaching $5,651 MRR and 148 subscriptions, up from 101 last time. Still not recommended: platform and employer counter-measures risk hasn't changed.
