London-based content streaming platform OnlyFans has outpaced major global technology companies in revenue efficiency, generating an impressive $37.6 million per employee, according to The Economic Times, citing Barchart data.
The platform’s 2024 performance places it far ahead of major tech firms, including NVIDIA ($3.6 million), Apple ($2.4 million), Meta ($2.2 million), and Google ($1.9 million) per employee. Even OpenAI and Microsoft, each reporting around $1.1 million per employee, trail significantly behind.
OnlyFans achieved this remarkable figure with a lean workforce of just 42 employees, generating $1.4 billion in annual revenue last year. The company’s revenue primarily comes from its 20% commission on fan transactions, with creators retaining the remaining 80%. In 2024, creator accounts rose by 13% to 4.6 million, while fan accounts surged 25% to 377.5 million globally.
Experts say the platform’s model demonstrates exceptional operational efficiency, where a small team supports millions of content creators and fans worldwide.
Since its founding in 2016 by British entrepreneur Tim Stokely and his father Guy Stokely, the company—now owned by Ukrainian-American entrepreneur Leonid Radvinsky—has paid more than $25 billion to creators. Recently, OnlyFans also issued a record $701 million dividend to Radvinsky, underlining its strong profitability.
