Generate faceless YouTube videos automatically with AI

Turns a topic into narrated video with AI voice, AI images, and motion, ready to upload to YouTube.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs; all paths must finish before it continues; runs once per each scene in the script.

Pattern: Parallel Split (2) · Synchronisation (3) · Multiple Instances with a priori Design-Time Knowledge (13)

The problem it solves

You want to publish videos regularly, but you don't want to be on camera and don't have time to record narration, source images, and edit every episode yourself. Producing even one polished video by hand can eat up a whole afternoon.

Who it fits

A content creator or business that wants to publish YouTube videos regularly without appearing on camera.

How it works

  1. You provide a topic or theme
  2. AI writes and narrates a script using text-to-speech
  3. Matching stock images are generated and animated into motion
  4. Audio and visuals are synced together into a finished video
What you get

Videos ready to review before upload

You get a narrated, animated video built from a topic you give it, ready for your channel.

What you get

A ready-to-upload YouTube video with narration, images, and motion, no filming required.

What you need

An ElevenLabs account, a Leonardo account, a Shotstack account, and an OpenAI account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
