2026 Is the Year of Easy AI Money: ChatGPT + Claude AI + Canva = $3,000 Per Month
2026 Will Be the Easiest Year for Ordinary People to Make Money
Because AI technology has fully matured, the barrier for content creation has dropped to the extreme.
Amazon KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing) has officially exploded.
In 2025, the global ebook market size has exceeded $300 billion, and AI-generated books are beginning to appear everywhere.
Knowledge products and online courses have always been one of the most stable wealth-building paths for ordinary people.
AI overseas monetization works the same way.
The core of making money is to create an ebook that targets a painful hidden demand, then upload it to Amazon KDP for sales.
The advantages of ebooks are:
- Zero inventory
- Low cost
- Lifetime sales
On average, one ebook priced at $9.99.
Selling just 300 copies can already generate close to $3,000 in revenue.
And this is only the beginning.
With the arrival of the AI era, you do not need to be a writer or designer.
You only need three AI tools:
- ChatGPT
- Claude AI
- Canva
And you can complete everything.
Find the “Hidden Pain Points” People Are Afraid to Talk About
The first secret of making money is not chasing hot trends,
but solving the pains that other people are not willing to talk about.
List the areas you are familiar with, such as:
- Health
- Career
- Relationships
- Money
Then ask yourself:
What kind of unspeakable troubles are people suffering from in these areas?
For example:
- The “postpartum depression signals” of working mothers
- The “social anxiety symptoms” of young professionals
These are all high-empathy problems that easily trigger user resonance.
Use Google Trends or Reddit to search keywords and check search volume and discussion popularity.
For example:
Search “perimenopause symptoms unspoken”.
Then check Quora, TikTok, and comment sections to see if there is real market demand.
After selecting the topic, focus on collecting research data.
Look for authoritative sources online, such as:
- Mayo Clinic health articles
- PubMed research summaries
Use them as data input so your ebook becomes more credible.
Build Your Ebook Outline with ChatGPT
First, bundle your topic together with your research data.
For example:
Your topic might be:
“Unspoken perimenopause symptoms”.
Your data may include:
Hot flash frequency 60%, emotional fluctuation affecting work performance, etc.
Then start writing your prompt.
Many people think prompts are useless, but prompts are the key.
Here is a universal template you can use (replace the words in brackets):
I am writing an ebook about “Unspoken Perimenopause Symptoms”.
Based on the following research data: [PASTE DATA],
please generate an outline with 20–40 chapters.
For each chapter, include:
- Chapter title
- A brief description (within 100 words)
- A bullet list of key points
Target audience: women aged 35–50.
Tone: empathetic and practical.
Make sure the content is grounded in scientific facts.
For each chapter, include:
- Chapter title
- A brief description (within 100 words)
- A bullet list of key points
Ebooks usually sell for a few dollars to tens of dollars.
If you price your ebook at a few dollars, writing about 10 chapters is enough.
If you price higher, write more chapters.
One chapter around $1 is an easily acceptable price point for readers.
This also applies to online courses.
Many people ask:
If someone pays to learn something, do they really want to learn it for life?
The answer is: No.
They want to solve a problem within a short period of time.
So ebooks are accepted more easily.
Use Claude AI to Fill Content and Write High-Quality Drafts
Why use Claude instead of ChatGPT?
Because Claude is much stronger for long-form writing.
ChatGPT tends to repeat and lose logical flow,
but Claude writes more like a professional editor, keeping consistency and depth.
Copy your outline generated by ChatGPT and use the following prompt in Claude:
Based on the following ebook outline: [PASTE OUTLINE], please write approximately 1000 words for each chapter. Tone: empathetic and supportive, like a caring friend sharing advice. Writing style: simple and easy to understand, avoid technical jargon, use stories and examples to explain. Structure requirements: – Each chapter should start with an introduction – Use subsection titles in the middle – End each chapter with an action checklist Make sure all information is grounded in scientific facts and include references (e.g., Mayo Clinic). The goal is to help women aged 35–50 relieve the discomfort of perimenopause symptoms.Claude will generate content chapter by chapter,
with very accurate word count control.
Each chapter should be around 1000 words,
because ebook readers’ attention span is about 1000 words per chapter.
If the content feels too dry, you can further prompt:
In this chapter, please add more personal stories and reader interaction questions to increase emotional connection.
Claude can also automatically insert authority citations, such as:
“According to Harvard Health…”
which increases the credibility of your ebook.
Design the Cover and Publish on Amazon KDP
After the content is ready, use Canva to design your ebook cover.
Search in Canva for:
“Kindle ebook cover” templates.
Choose a clean, simple style.
Then go to Amazon KDP and start your upload process:
- Upload manuscript
- Upload cover
- Fill in title and description
- Choose pricing
- Publish
After publishing, promote your ebook through:
- TikTok
- YouTube Shorts
The most important thing is:
Do not expect overnight success.
But if you continuously publish ebooks, your income will compound month by month.
