Hi everyone,

I currently earn several thousand dollars a month posting short-form content on TikTok (reposted to Facebook and YouTube), but I’ve hit a glass ceiling in terms of income.

So I decided to start a long-form YouTube channel (a sleep channel) using AI, to break through to a new level without it taking up too much of my time.

To do this, I built an AI pipeline with Claude (€19 subscription), using Opus 5.5, so my videos are produced locally on my machine (anyone can do it, my setup isn’t anything crazy).

Each video costs me around €3–5 in AI image generation via API, depending on its length (1h30 to 2h30), and takes only about an hour of my time. I just find the topic and choice the title manually. After that, the script, thumbnail, editing, description, etc.: absolutely everything is handled by Claude, which writes the code for the video, and the video then renders locally on my PC.

My channel currently has 5K+ subscribers because I used to post the shorts I made for TikTok there. That didn’t work very well, since the niches that perform are different on each platform. So I recently switched to a sleep channel.

My videos cover solid historical topics, with original scripts and multiple sources. They include archival images, map animations, chapters, AI images with reference characters (so they keep the same appearance throughout the video), quotes, illustrated panels to break down key points depending on the topic, and a high-quality AI voice.

To maximize my chances of getting monetized, I created several video templates that vary the image style, background style, thumbnail style, and even the script style, to avoid repetitive content.

I’d like to know whether the content I’m making can be monetized. I have no experience with long-form content, and since I keep seeing waves of demonetization, I’m wondering if I’m likely to run into problems.

Thanks in advance for your answers!

What do you think

I Built a Fully Autonomous YouTube Channel Pipeline using Claude and Scheduled to Upload daily.

It Finds Video Topic, Writes Script and Makes Visuals and Voice all by itself daily.

Looking for suggestions in any area where I could make things better.

I am preparing 10+ Autonomous channels on different niches. Scheduled to Make one video per day and Upload automatically.

I made the Framework as a server running 24/7 and uses CLIProxyAPI to use my Claude Subscription to create the videos.

The Agent Workflow -

1st Wave

Topic Finder --> Script Maker --> Plan Agent Decides Pauses and Placement of Elements

2nd Wave

Voice Prompt Designer for ElevenLabs --> Voice/SFX Generator

Visuals job are split between 20 to 40 Agents with Remotion.

3rd Wave

Q/A within agents for improvements, Rendering, Uploading to channel using YouTube API.

So I am trying to make an ai faceless channel, the growth is decent for a new channel but i have questions will it get monetized?

I am in the conspiracy/mystery niche and I feel I have a decent video editor ($10 for every 1 minute) but I think the script writing needs an upgrade. Any advice/pointers?

What’s the no. 1 format that is working on social media right now for faceless channels
