The Done-For-You faceless lane sells at $1,500 retail against a supplier floor cost of $800. The deliverable is built to the OS shape: a brand row, a landing page, 20 evergreen assets — scripts written by the pipeline, renders handled by faceless-video suppliers — plus capture set up across a Whop hub and Telegram, the first measurement issue, and the lane's own row in the index.

The manual agency model and the automated tool pipeline sit on opposite sides of this number. An agency selling the same kind of channel-build charges by the hour of a person's attention. The tool pipeline instead runs on 30 owner-minutes against 240 machine-minutes — the owner's time is a fraction of what the machine spends assembling scripts and coordinating renders across the 20 assets.

The pricing itself traces to two anchors already public. Fiverr's Choice listing for "grow youtube automation channel" starts from $190 for a single video or set — the low end of what a manual, one-off version of this work costs on an open marketplace. On the supplier side, the 20 assets price out at a floor of $25–45 each, putting raw production cost at $500–900 — bracketing the $800 cost figure the lane is built against. The record notes the $1,500 retail price as "~2× cost" against that floor.

Category context: the Whop Done For You category runs at $329,460 in monthly recurring revenue, with an average revenue per product of $4,390. The $1,500 price point for this lane sits below that category average, positioned under the $4,390 figure rather than at it.

None of this is a claim about what any operator should charge or build. It's the unit economics as recorded: a $1,500 retail price, an $800 cost floor, 30 owner-minutes against 240 machine-minutes, and a category doing $329,460 a month at a $4,390 average per product.
