12 Digital Product Ideas That Still Work in 2026

About this video

The creator lists 12 digital product ideas he says still work in 2026, explaining what each is, who buys it and why demand exists, while cautioning that most businesses fail. The list is: spreadsheet templates (budget, meal and project tools sold on Etsy/Gumroad); Canva templates for social media and presentations; resume and CV templates bundled with cover letters; non-fiction ebook learning guides via Amazon KDP; print-on-demand paperback books; audiobooks via ACX/Audible repurposing the same content; website templates; Notion templates; music sample packs; stock footage and media licensing, which he says AI is disrupting and he personally would avoid; paid membership communities for recurring revenue; and digital courses, which command high prices but take months to build and require trust. Throughout he gives illustrative creator-claimed revenue math from listings’ review and sales counts, for example estimating a spreadsheet listing at about $13,200 and a Canva shop at roughly $35,000. His clear recommendation is books: he claims an example title earns about $100/day as an ebook, $1,000/day as a paperback and $50/day as an audiobook, and argues Amazon supplies traffic, printing, payment and customer service so one manuscript can stack into multiple formats and sell long-term.

Key takeaways

  • Templates (spreadsheets, Canva, resumes, Notion, websites) sell time savings and structure; build once and sell repeatedly with no inventory
  • The creator’s top pick is books: turn one manuscript into ebook, print-on-demand paperback, hardcover and audiobook revenue streams
  • Paid communities and courses offer recurring or high-ticket revenue but demand ongoing support, fresh content and pre-built trust
  • Avoid crowded generic angles: win by being first with a new angle or best in quality, and niche down to one audience and problem
  • The creator warns stock footage is being disrupted by AI and needs large volume, so he would focus on books instead
