Vugola (Vadim, @VadimStrizheus on X)

Vadim, 19, worked at a marketing startup from age 17 and quit to build software with no coding experience. He noticed how many podcast, gaming and stream clips filled his feeds and decided to build a clipping tool for a proven market. He spent about four months building Vugola, began marketing it in March 2026 and says it now makes about $11,200 in monthly recurring revenue with roughly 400 paying users.
