AI Tools That Pay You: 6 Ways People Earn Extra Money With Them

Intro

AI tools that pay you: six ways people earn extra money with them, and how each one pays. By our count, one customer paying $20 a month could earn you up to $96 over two years. And number one takes AI images, with one box you must always tick.

6. Writesonic's affiliate program pays only when someone clicks your link and subscribes within sixty days

Number six: Writesonic's affiliate program pays only when someone clicks your link and subscribes within sixty days. Its free trial shows how visible a brand is in AI answers, in ten minutes, with no card. Applying takes five minutes, and most applications are approved within twenty-four hours. There is no traffic minimum, no exclusivity and no time commitment.

You earn 20% of every payment your customer makes, every month, for up to twelve months. By our count, one customer paying $50 a month would earn you $120 in that year. The rate is the same whether you refer one customer or a thousand. Payouts are monthly, through an affiliate platform.

Taxes and payout methods differ by country. Number five is another link, for an AI voice tool.

5. With Murf, your audience gets no discount, only a recurring commission goes to you

Number five: with Murf, your audience gets no discount, only a recurring commission goes to you. Murf makes AI voiceovers, and anyone can join its affiliate program. You sign up, and no special skills are required. The page also asks for an audience that could use a voiceover tool.

You earn 20% for every person who buys a paid plan through your link. That commission repeats for up to twenty-four months from when they become a customer. By our count, one customer paying $20 a month would earn you $96 over those months. That is the $96 from the opening.

A visitor who clicks your link counts for ninety days. If they buy a paid plan within that window, the commission is yours. Rewards are calculated at the end of each month and cashed out through an online payment service. Payout options depend on where you live.

If lists like this help you, subscribe: each rule here comes from the platforms' own pages. Number four pays you for what you already know.

4. Mercor's AI training work typically asks for undergraduate-level expertise at minimum

Number four: Mercor's AI training work typically asks for undergraduate-level expertise at minimum, and many projects ask for more. You apply that expertise to evaluate, improve and guide large language models. To start, you create a profile and take its AI assessments. You don't need any prior AI experience.

Pay depends on your expertise, the project's complexity and demand for the role. You get paid weekly for the work. Pay for the prior week is typically processed by the end of Wednesday, and most experts receive it in two to ten days. Mercor pays in dollars, and your payment service converts them to your local currency at payout.

Its main payment service holds your very first payout for seven days, a rule Mercor cannot change. Mercor also caps your weekly hours, to keep quality and feedback steady. Its time tracker may take periodic screenshots to confirm you are working. Its usage policy flags work that is evidently produced by AI.

Mercor can only sign contracts in the places its support page lists. Contract rules and taxes depend on where you live. Number three is one more link you can share.

3. With LALAL.AI, nothing is paid until your balance reaches one hundred fifty dollars

Number three: with LALAL.AI, nothing is paid until your balance reaches $150. LALAL.AI makes AI audio tools, like a voice cloner built from your own recordings. Its program lets website owners and content creators earn commissions by promoting it. Applications are reviewed on business days and typically approved within twenty-four to forty-eight hours.

You earn 30% on purchases in a referral's first month. After that, 20% applies to their subscription payments for up to six months. A click on your link counts for 180 days. You can also add its audio-splitting widget to your website.

Purchases made after a click on the widget count as your referral. By our count, a referral paying $10 a month for seven months would earn you $15, a tenth of the minimum. Payouts are monthly through an online payment service, issued before the sixteenth of the following month. Some regions also get a bank transfer or a local wallet.

We are halfway, and one thing helps with every item: each official page states how and when it pays. Seven other ways to earn with AI tools are in our earlier video, linked on screen. Number two pays you every time someone runs a tool you publish.

2. On Apify, your payout is your tool's revenue minus a commission and platform costs

Number two: on Apify, your payout is your tool's revenue minus a commission and platform costs. Its store takes automations and AI agents as paid tools. Creating an account is free, with no credit card required. You start from a code template and write the tool's logic yourself, so some coding is needed.

Customers pay each time they run your tool, and Apify handles billing and payouts. Apify keeps 20% of your tool's revenue as a commission. It never charges you if your tool earns nothing. By our count, $100 of runs would leave you $80, before platform costs.

Those costs cover the servers, proxies and storage your tool uses, and on tools priced per action they come out of your share. Apify issues payouts between the twenty-first and the twenty-fifth of each month. The minimum payout is $20 through some online payment services, and 100 through other methods. If you fall short, the money rolls over to the next month.

Everyone who receives payments passes an identity check. Tax rules differ by country. In one breath: a visibility tool's link, a voice tool's link, AI training work, an audio tool's link and paid tools you publish. How much do you think one AI image earns you when a buyer's ten-photo plan costs about $30?

Number one has the answer.

1. Adobe Stock, which takes AI images, with one box you must always tick

Number one: Adobe Stock, which takes AI images, with one box you must always tick. Its guidelines require that box on every file made with generative AI. You also check the terms of the AI tool you used, to confirm you have the right to submit its images. Your prompts, titles and keywords cannot name artists, real people or fictional characters.

The overview page lists no upfront costs or subscription fees. You create a free account and complete tax details before uploading. You upload through its contributor portal, and a moderation team checks each file. Each time a buyer licenses your file, you receive a royalty.

For photos, vectors and illustrations, that royalty is 33% of the net license price. The guidelines also ask for images that add unique value, not many versions of one prompt. In its own example, a buyer's plan of ten photo licenses a month costs $29 and ninety-nine cents. Each licensed photo then pays you ninety-nine cents.

By our count, 100 licenses at that rate would pay you $99. Your first payout needs $25 in royalties and forty-five days since your first sale. After that, you can request a payout each time you reach $25. One of its payment services works worldwide.

Tax forms and payment options differ by country. And that completes the six. So, six ways to get paid with AI tools: links to Writesonic and Murf, and training work on Mercor. Then a link to LALAL.AI, paid tools on Apify and AI images on Adobe Stock.
