HYPE OR FACT? · CHECKED 22 OCTOBER 2026
'Claude Code + Obsidian = $100,000 a month'
OUR VERDICT
HypeOur original verdict: “Ignore the bait; the system itself is simple and sensible.”
THE CLAIM
“'Claude Code + Obsidian = $100,000 a month.'”
What’s actually true
- The '$100K a month' is the revenue of his horse-training membership business, not money made by agents.
- Claude Code is never actually shown running a task.
- The memory system itself (a master note per project, how-to notes, daily logs in an Obsidian vault) is simple and sensible.
