3 of 6 axes hold. The mechanism exists; the claim strains somewhere the arithmetic can show you.

Six axes · 79 of 115 points

Temporal Possibility

Can the output fit the claimed window, and does the platform pay out in time?

20/20

The working

no unit count claimed; production-time check skipped

Workload Cost

What the claimed output actually costs to produce at current prices.

12/25

The working

unit count not stated; workload cost unverifiable — scored at midpoint

Stack Completeness

The full bill — named tools plus requirements the claim didn't mention.

6/15

The working

Amazon account: $30.0/mo (default)
AI publishing tools: $30.0/mo (default)
Content creation platform: $30.0/mo (default)
stack total $90/mo across 0 named + 3 unstated

Price Realism

Claimed per-unit price against the real market benchmark band.

10/20

The working

neither unit price nor unit count stated; price realism unverifiable — scored at midpoint

Net Margin

Whether profit survives generation, tools, and time at market wage.

20/20

The working

no unit count; time cost $0
net: $3000 - (gen $0 + stack $90 + time $0) = $2910 (97%)

Replicability

Could a normal person with ~$500 replicate this, or does it need rare skill, an audience, or heavy capital?

10/15
