AI has democratized entry into high-demand skills. You don’t need to know Python or TensorFlow to start earning. Many businesses want AI-powered solutions but can’t afford data-scientist salaries. Here are six freelance services you can deliver with nothing more than a web browser and a willingness to learn:

AI-Generated Social-Media Content Platforms like Jasper, Copy.ai, or Sudowrite spin blog posts or tweets in minutes. You act as the editor, brand voice, and scheduler. Charge $300–$800 per month per client for 10 posts + analytics. Stack: Jasper → Buffer → Canva for visuals.
AI Chatbot Setup for Local Businesses No-code builders such as ManyChat, Landbot, or Chatfuel let you create FAQ bots that answer common questions about hours, location, and services. Businesses pay $300–$1,200 per bot, and you can reuse templates across clients. Stack: ManyChat → Zapier → Stripe for payments.

Passive income means money that keeps flowing while you sleep or work on other projects. With AI, you can create assets once and collect checks for years. Here are five low-maintenance models:
