6.2 ShipScore / 10

Control strong via direct B2B ownership; entry weakest — AI course builders launching monthly.

Condition: Land 3 paying L&D teams or training agencies at $300+/mo who specifically demand white-label plus version-controlled libraries — not just AI generation.

What the five commandments measure
C — ControlDo you own the customer, or does a gatekeeper stand between you and revenue?
E — EntryHow hard is this to copy once it works? A rival's existence isn't the question — the durability of their advantage is.
N — NeedIs demand proven with money rather than vibes?
T — TimeCan income detach from your hours, or did you buy yourself a job?
S — ScaleHow far does it reach without linear cost?

Scored on the evidence below, against CENTS as we've adapted it plus a Buffett-style moat reading of every rival — the same referee for every idea, including the ones we generate ourselves. The verdict follows the arithmetic: we never relabel a score to make it read better, and the weakest commandment is always named. The exact rubric stays in-house so the scale can't be written for.

02 — The pace test — $1M/yr

At $300/mo (assumed category price), you need 278 subscribers for a $1M/yr pace.

07 — What this scan can't tell you

Scores judge the market and business model — not your ability to execute. Verified MRR = independently tracked revenue; reviews/upvotes = platform-reported. Judged 2026-08-16.

08 — The wedge & the next step

Sell to training agencies as a white-label production line: their brand, their client LMS, version-controlled updates billed per client seat.

Cheapest next step: Cold-email 20 corporate training agencies offering to rebuild one existing course as a white-label pilot for $500; count how many reply.
