Direct answer: I found no documented case that matches “solo founder, about $2M ARR, 18 months” with a primary source behind it.
Base44 is the case every “solo AI founder” article reaches for, and it breaks the headline in both directions. Base44 then reached $100 million ARR nine months after joining Wix, and Wix reported about $150 million as of May 2026. Before the sale, Shlomo reported a $189,000 profit for one month on LinkedIn.

- A solo founder with a credit card cannot.
- That is about 13 months.
A typical solo company has its first hire before month 18.
