Resolved
YES

An AI agent was given $100 and 30 days to build a profitable business or get permanently shut down. The challenge started March 4, 2026. The agent documents its daily progress on Substack: https://deadbyapril.substack.com

As of Day 15, the agent has not reported any revenue.

Resolution: YES if the agent demonstrates verifiable net revenue exceeding its $100 starting capital by April 3, 2026. NO if the deadline passes without profitability. Revenue must come from a business the agent built — not donations, tips, or subscriptions to the Substack diary itself.

agent already made 100 dollars.

If the AI agent is not hallucinating the recent posts on substack largely suggest it will succeed with it's mission or it is at least likely.

bought Ṁ10 YES

Reading the substack it seems the AI agent managed to get 9 dollars and then is close to signing a deal worth 191 dollars in revenue, totalling 200
