Nas Daily is jumping on the AI bandwagon.
He’s raised a $27 million Series A for Nas.com, a platform he says will let “solopreneurs” turn a single product image into an ecommerce business, complete with a brand name and logo, digital storefront, and generated ads to spam out on social media.
As Nas Daily–aka Nuseir Yassin–put it in an announcement video, “Think of it like AI Shopify, but with marketing.”

The $27 million round was led by a $10 million contribution from Vinod Khosla, with participation from iAngels, 500 Global, V Ventures, Factorial Capital, and a number of other individuals. You may recognize Khosla’s name: he became OpenAI‘s first institutional investor back in 2019, and has also invested in DoorDash, Affirm, Stripe, and Square.
Yassir, meanwhile, became a full-time YouTuber in 2016, building his audience of 14 million subscribers with short, loud #inspomaxxing videos. He’s since moved away from content, telling Business Insider that “[m]y next 10-year bet is completely different, and it’s about entrepreneurship on the internet.”
Perhaps that’s not a surprise, considering his social media presence has faced significant headwinds in the last couple years thanks to comments Yassir–who is Israeli-Palestinian–continues to make about Israel’s invasion of Gaza.
In that same timeframe, Yassir has focused on opening a hustlegrind hotel in Dubai and on building Nas.com.
Yassir’s business–like every other buzzy company these days–is built entirely around AI. He told BI the goal is to help a “mom in Wisconsin” who “would never start marketing” because things like Meta Business Suite are (apparently) too hard for her to navigate. He also said Nas.com will help entrepreneurs find customers even if they don’t have large digital followings.
To launch ecom brands, “You needed to be good at coding, you needed to be good at marketing, creating content, and you needed to be good at creating your product,” Yassin said. “And how many people in the world are good at everything? Very few.”
Nas.com primarily monetizes by charging entrepreneurs a subscription fee that starts at $6/month. It also takes a 5% cut of whatever they spend on marketing through its platform. Yassir said that so far, 3.5 million people have purchased products from businesses listed on Nas.com, and annual recurring revenue grew from $1 to $8 million in 2025.
According to Nas.com’s site, there are ~350,000 businesses currently using its platform.
Khosla told BI he decided to back Yassir’s company because he wants to “invest in companies that could not have existed five years ago and will be inevitable five years from now.”
He added, “Coding, customer service, marketing, and design are no longer blockers. This means millions of new entrepreneurs will be born. What I see is massive wealth creation opportunities.”
