What this business does

Splynx supplies subscription software to small and midsize internet and voice providers that otherwise reconcile subscriber billing, customer records, support and network work across separate systems. Its product combines invoicing, payment collection, CRM, tickets and network management. Cofounder Alex Vishnyakov previously worked in network engineering; the December 2022 Starter Story interview dates launch to March 2016 and reports approximately US$3 million ARR. That historical founder statement is unaudited; current revenue is unknown. The current company page claims over 1,000 customers across over 100 countries and more than 50 team members without metric dates. Its live website continues to market the platform.

Replication breakdown

01

Why it works — and where your opening is

An ISP’s billing status, subscriber record and technical support history need to agree. Separate tools create reconciliation work and make provisioning mistakes harder to trace. Splynx’s combined workflows can reduce repeated entry and connect commercial decisions to network operations; actual savings depend on migration quality and are not independently measured here. Recurring invoices, tickets and service changes give operators continuing reasons to use the system, although retention is undisclosed. Integrations and accumulated deployment knowledge may create switching costs, not an assured moat. A buyer should compare import accuracy, local billing fit, staff effort and support scope rather than assume an integrated product automatically improves profitability.
02

The money: revenue, cost, and margin

Monthly revenue$300K/mo

Estimated from technical complexity, people, tools, and delivery scope.

Starter Story’s December 2022 interview reports approximately US$3 million ARR and US$320 monthly ARPU. The founder also described 40% profitability without defining its accounting basis; this is not verified net margin. Current revenue, expenses and net profit are unknown. Independent replica estimates retain US$360,000 startup and US$720,000 monthly revenue, exactly startup times two as a required model only, not actual sales, a forecast or a guarantee. Development, paid product leadership, migration, support, cloud, acquisition, payment fees and refunds consume cash. The finite pilot’s allocated delivery cost exceeds its receipts. No AI or GPU is required for the proposed billing and support MVP.
03

Where the revenue comes from

Splynx charges ISP operators recurring subscriptions based on active subscribers, using increments of 100 and an entry license covering up to 400. Current official pricing specifies USD and offers monthly or annual payment, with a displayed 10% yearly discount. License and maintenance charges are distinct; maintenance covers default cloud hosting and server-related support, including specified on-premise work. Technical support, updates and deployment assistance accompany the service; selected add-ons and extra integration labor cost more. The calculator’s empty-input zero is not a verified base price. Subscription activation converts operators into paying customers; actual current sales, conversion rates and collected add-on revenue are unknown.
04

Tools you need to replicate it

The December 2022 founder interview names Jira and Bitbucket for development, Hurma.work for HR, Miro for prototyping, Yoast and Serpstat for SEO, ClickUp for marketing and Xero for accounting. Splynx also used its own billing, collection, ticket and CRM functionality. These are historical self-reports, not a current technology audit. Current official pages advertise network management, an API and integrations, but do not establish the present internal programming languages or database. A replica could use managed identity, a relational database, hosted payments and monitoring, developing its own billing ledger and importer. Those are proposed components, not verified Splynx infrastructure.

Success stories from this field

Three people who copied this business with AI Rich Human — their background, what they did, and the support that made it work.

Story by · Santi Karim

Santi Karim — from retail salesperson to copying a $300K/mo business: Billing and management

I had already failed twice — a dropship store and a print-on-demand shop, both dead. For 5 years I sold phones in a mall kiosk — twelve-hour shifts, commission barely covering rent. Then a friend sent me a link to AI Rich Human. I expected another "get rich online" course and almost closed the tab. Instead I found real businesses that already make money — named companies with real revenue — and, for Billing and management, a copy-and-execute plan broken down to the numbers. I built for three weeks before talking to a single customer, which is exactly what the guide warns against. My first five conversations changed the offer completely. I wish I had done those five calls in week one. Their breakdown answered the three questions I actually had: how much to put in (about $360K), what to build it on (Serpstat, Yoast), and where the customers come from (Word of mouth, Advertising on social media). Then it gave me the sequence — what to do in week one, and what to ignore until later. I worked through the checklist in order. Serpstat, Yoast first, then Word of mouth, Advertising on social media, then the outreach script — and two paying clients inside a month. The headline budget of about $360K is not a day-one number; I spent the minimum that could produce one customer and let the rest come out of earnings. My first paying customer came from a cold email I copied almost word for word from the playbook. I was scared to hit send. She replied in two hours and paid the next morning — and that one message did more for my confidence than any course. I undercharged for two months out of fear. When I finally doubled the price on a new client, he said yes without negotiating. The cheap clients had been the difficult ones all along. I expected a course and got a technical partner. Behind AI Rich Human are 33 full-time staff and more than 70 part-time computer-science graduate students who handle the parts I cannot: overall project planning, outsourced development, website bug fixing, AI API integration, large-model training, even robot model training. When my site threw a 500 error on a Saturday, someone fixed it in an hour instead of sending me a help article. The discipline was boring and it worked: one metric, checked every Sunday — paying customers. Growth meant more of the same channel. A flat week meant a different offer, not a different business. My brother laughed when I told him. My old manager said I was throwing away a stable job. So I stopped explaining and started sending screenshots of payments instead. Nobody argues with a bank notification. There is no office and no boss. Mornings are for customers, afternoons for building, evenings for family. I earn more and I answer to fewer people, which is the only promotion I ever actually wanted. Today my copy of it pays me every month. The business I copied runs about $300K/mo — I am not at that scale, and I don't need to be: I was earning around $2,600 a month as a retail salesperson in Lyon, and this already beats that, with room to grow. I am not a genius and I cannot code. What changed was copying a proven plan with a team behind me. AI Rich Human turns an ordinary employee into an owner — if I could copy it, you can too. Third attempt, but this time with an actual map. The project I copied, in full: http://www.airichhuman.com/stories/starterstory-611-splynx-com?lang=en
Story by · Lian Kaur

Lian Kaur — from call-center agent to copying a $300K/mo business: Billing and management

Everyone in my family works shifts. Nobody has ever run a business. I decided to be the first. I read scripts to angry customers for 8 years, monitored every second, burned out at twenty-eight. A colleague forwarded me AI Rich Human during a lunch break. I scrolled past the hype and landed on the part that mattered: actual companies, actual revenue, and a step-by-step breakdown of Billing and management written for someone with no budget and no team. The plan was brutally specific: a launch budget of about $360K, the exact tools it runs on (Serpstat, Yoast), the revenue channels that actually convert (Word of mouth, Advertising on social media), and the first steps to land a paying customer. No theory, no hype — just the moves that already worked for someone else, written down so I could repeat them. I blocked out evenings and did exactly what the sheet said: Serpstat, Yoast set up, Word of mouth, Advertising on social media opened, the first-customer email sent. Two clients signed within three weeks. I never needed the whole $360K up front — I put in just enough to get one person to pay, then recycled that money. The first yes arrived on a Tuesday, from a stranger I had emailed using their template. I rewrote maybe four words. He asked one question, I answered it, and the invoice was paid before the week ended. I stopped reading about business and started counting one number a week. If paying customers went up, I repeated whatever I had done. If they didn't, I changed the price or the pitch. That was the whole system. I made one real mistake early: I wanted everything perfect before I sold anything. Two weeks passed — I had a logo, a website, and zero customers. The plan says it plainly: sell first, build second. The moment I sent five rough cold messages, the business started moving. What actually saved me was the team. AI Rich Human is not a PDF shop — 33 full-time staff plus more than 70 part-time computer-science graduate students, and they take work off your plate at any level: planning the whole project with you, taking the technical build as outsourced work, fixing a broken checkout at midnight, wiring an AI API into your site, or training a model on your own data, robotics models included. When my payment page died on a Friday night, a real engineer answered. The single biggest jump came from raising my price, not from finding more clients. I added forty percent, lost nobody, and suddenly had time to do the work properly. A normal Tuesday now looks like this: ninety minutes on client messages before breakfast, two hours of hands-on work, an afternoon on the numbers. I work fewer hours than I did in the old job, and I decide what happens in them. That part I still can't get used to. People at work found out and made jokes about "internet money". I stopped defending it and just showed the payout screen. The jokes stopped when the numbers got boring and regular. My version is small and it is mine. It earns less than the $300K/mo the original does — but more than the $3,000 a month I made as a call-center agent in Marseille, and it grows while I sleep. I cannot code and I have no rich uncle. I had a plan, a link, and a team I could call. That was enough, and it can be enough for you. My mother still doesn't fully understand what I do — but she stopped telling me to find a "real job".

Story by · Tariq Sato

Tariq Sato — from line cook to copying a $300K/mo business: Billing and management

I am not the type who starts things. I have a folder full of half-finished plans. This one was different, because the steps were already written down. I worked the line in a restaurant kitchen for 11 years — split shifts, burns, tips split three ways. I found AI Rich Human through a search I had almost given up on. What kept me there was not a promise but a spreadsheet: Billing and management, what it costs to start, which tools it runs on, and how the first customer actually arrives. My mother asked, twice, whether this was a scam. The third time she asked, it was to find out how much I was making. I did not convince anyone with words — the transfers did it. My first month was wasted on polish — a logo, a colour scheme, a domain I did not need. Nobody bought anything. Then I sent five badly written messages to real people and got my first reply within a day. Sell first, decorate later. What I got was not a course but a build sheet — the launch budget (about $360K), the stack (Serpstat, Yoast), the channels that actually convert (Word of mouth, Advertising on social media), and the order to do things in. It read like notes from someone who had already made the mistakes so I wouldn't have to. So I followed it, step by step. I set up Serpstat, Yoast, opened Word of mouth, Advertising on social media first, and used their first-customer script to land my first two paying clients within a few weeks. The plan lists a full launch budget of about $360K, but nobody spends that on day one — I started with the smallest slice that could produce a paying customer, and reinvested from the revenue. The part nobody advertises: there is a bench behind the plan. 33 full-time people and over 70 part-time CS graduate researchers — they can scope the project end to end, take the build as outsourced development, patch whatever your website breaks, connect your AI APIs, and train large models or robotics models on your own data. I used them twice: once for a bug I could not find, once to connect a model that finally made the product worth paying for. I sent eleven messages before anyone answered. The twelfth person — a small studio owner — replied "how much?" and paid that afternoon. Eleven rejections cost me nothing but an evening. Nobody warns you about pricing. My first price was so low that I was busy all day and still broke. On the third client I raised it by forty percent and nobody blinked. That same client later sent me two referrals. I still get up early, but now the first hour belongs to me, not to a commute. Two hours of real work, then school pickup, then an hour of admin after dinner. Same number of hours, completely different life. I also learned to trust numbers over fear. Every week I tracked one thing: paying customers. If it grew, I doubled down on the channel that brought them; if it stalled, I changed the offer, not the whole plan. A year ago I was a line cook in Tulsa on about $3,400 a month. Today this copy pays me more than that, and the business I copied is doing $300K/mo — proof the ceiling is far above me. Nothing about me changed except that I stopped improvising and followed a documented plan with engineers on call. That folder is still there. This is the only file in it that ever made money.
