30 YouTube Channels Making Money with AI Content

[00:01] share with you a list of 30 niches for automated YouTube channels where you do n't need to be on camera, you don't need to make the videos yourself, and in editing format and the

[00:13] leveraged quite well with the right artificial intelligence tools mention the niches, explain some context, what you videos that I'll be uploading, I'll explain the exact methodology of how to

[00:27] execute them, how to monetize them, and how to make them go viral. Take this as an idea, as a reference of niches that you could consider if you want to start with your YouTube channels, because remember that the niche is only the first

[00:39] part of all this. There are many more elements that you must take into account, that you have a good result or the result that one expects. Niches aren't starting point for viral channels. So without further ado, let's begin with the

[00:53] first niche, which is stories of artificial intelligence with precedents and animals. We can watch this channel called Four-Legged Heroes. It has 118,000 subscribers with only 86 videos. If we look at the

[01:06] an interesting area of ​​opportunity here . Because? Because it reached 6.3 million visits. Esteban appears in negative, that means he deleted videos, but it doesn't mean it's a bad niche. This channel wanted to delete

[01:20] videos for some reason, but if we go in here, we can see the most viral videos. He has had viral videos in the last year. Mm, we have here. They are quite interesting videos that follow a pattern. If you

[01:33] notice, even the thumbnails look alike , which is something we look for in good channels or good niches, that they have consistency in formats and styles. Now, now, how would you do it? If you notice, the editing is

[01:45] relatively simple. They use real images from Google, sometimes they leverage some artificial intelligence images, some most viral video, but other than that there is not much complexity, it is not that

[01:58] complex. Here we see stock images, for example, here the thumbnails are quite easy to make. You can create these using GPT chat and Mid for AI image generation, and you can retouch and enhance them with Canva.

[02:11] For me, Canva is the best image editor, the best thumbnail designer on the market today. Obviously excluding Photoshop, but hey, we realize there's a mix. In

[02:23] fact, now that YouTube has recently carried out a massacre of channels that use Fulia, I like this channel for the same reason, because not only is it totally free and the images and videos are not. We see that they are images from Google, we see

[02:36] that they are third-party content; it's a pretty healthy mix that might make sense to you. The second channel I want to share with you features stories of animals in the snow. This is crazy. This channel started publishing

[02:48] content 4 months ago and in these 4 months, I want to surprise you with this, it has accumulated 26 million views. Do me a favor, it's crazy. 100% of the content is indeed made with artificial intelligence,

[03:03] mainly with Mid Journey, which can be for image generation, and DO3, for the generation of these videos. The miniatures are quite attractive. most popular miniatures, we see that there is a kind of standardization in the

[03:16] style of miniatures. These particular videos are unscripted. without a script isn't the best idea, especially if you're just starting out, but this is a very good niche entry point. We see that these are videos from 12 days ago, so, come on, tell me

[03:31] if this isn't a gem of a niche entry. 7.1 You can obviously adapt this, you can tailor it to a certain type of content that interests a certain demographic or demographic group that you

[03:45] want to reach, but it's easy, easily replicable. The third niche I health niche with artificial intelligence avatars . For example, we have Dr. Fernando, eh Manochi, doctor in quotes, he is full

[03:58] artificial intelligence. We see that the most viral video is relatively recent, 90 views. This channel uploaded its first video 6 months ago, it's a fairly recent channel and while it does use a lot of artificial intelligence

[04:13] to make it, if you adapt it better , especially with the background, it could these types of miniatures are quite common in the health niche. Note, I always recommend micro-niche and having a

[04:27] niche differentiator. Because? If you're going to make the typical health channel that everyone watches, you're not going to go viral, bro. Microanínchate. I repeat what I mentioned at the beginning of this video. These 30 niches that I'm sharing with you are just

[04:39] a reference of very good, validated, viral, recent niches that I want to give you, but it's only the beginning. Then comes a whole process of pre-filtering, validation, and selection of viral ideas. There's much more. This

[04:52] video is exclusively to show you the niches. We move forward. The fourth niche I want to share with you is stories. invented Mexicans. This particular niche, while the statistics may not be the

[05:05] most surprising, if we look at the 30-day graph, it has crazy. Looking at the channel's historical views, it has 34 million visits. But what I want you to see here is, look, this

[05:18] but it's in a niche that really catches my attention. Because? Because it's three-zero content, mixed with artificial intelligence. You know what I like, sometimes stock images, but they are stories that appeal to a

[05:32] demographic that consumes YouTube. Mexico is one of the countries that consumes the most YouTube on the planet. So, I think this niche is a gem, and if it's executed correctly, it can be quite interesting. The fifth niche

[05:44] is English conversations with artificial intelligence. Everyone, at least in Latin America, wants to learn English. We watch YouTube and use YouTube to learn. And I find this niche quite curious. We see

[05:56] videos that have 46,000 views in the last 4 days. Suddenly we see videos here with 47,000 views in 2 weeks, 40,000 views in 2 weeks, 74,000 views in 3 weeks. It has consistency in visualizations. That's it, look, here's

[06:09] visuals, but it doesn't increase the amount of volume that I would recommend. That's an area of ​​opportunity where you can outperform, or even surpass, this channel. In the last 30 days it has had 1.3 million views. If we

[06:22] go into the shorts section, yes, he uploads shorts and they are very viral shorts. That's we don't make shorts. You know I'm a hater of shorts, but I think it's Basic subtitles, artificial intelligence images . I would definitely improve the

[06:36] editing here. The editing format of this channel is not at all correct or the one we'll see later, but I think it's a very good niche entry. Next niche, niche number six is ​​help for illnesses for the elderly.

[06:51] This channel here has 74,000 subscribers, with only 71 videos published. We verified that the short videos you have published have no views. views generated by this channel come from long, monetizable videos. That's

[07:04] good. To be exact, it has 6.2 million views and uploaded its first video well, two years ago, but this is ignored, when, important point, videos that seem to have nothing to do with anything years ago and suddenly started

[07:18] I always take the months ago. In 5 months it accumulated practically all the visits that this channel has, we look closely, these thumbnails are very similar to the previous health one I

[07:32] recommended, but these are life-saving solutions or solutions or topics such as diseases of older adults. Well, the colors of the thumbnails are also quite viral, and we can see that if

[07:44] we look at the most popular ones, they are videos that have millions of views or hundreds of thousands of views. The seventh niche I want to share with you is the niche of testimonial stories, such as religious ones, testimonies of

[07:56] Jesus. This channel with 213 videos has 29,000 subscribers. In the last 30 days it hasn't accumulated such great visits, honestly, but hey, I repeat, it's a niche post that needs to be investigated. Nearly 300,000 views. If we

[08:09] look at the most popular videos, if you notice, I repeat, it's the same format of AI stories, of testimonials. An atheist professor challenged God, a daughter kicked her mother out of the house for his wife, and Jesus taught her

[08:22] storytelling, this kind of editing nowadays, this type of editing of a single image for 40 minutes no longer works, but adapted to the new YouTube rules in 2026, have this theory that niches that have previously worked in other

[08:37] stages of human history, for example, the religious theme has always been in demand. There are billions of religious followers of Jesus on the planet. Let's give it content. This type of differentiated content is very good, and we

[08:50] has hundreds of thousands of views with that type of content. Eighth niche are AI stories about ancient history. If we go into the channel, it's quite interesting. Because? Because with just

[09:03] 20 videos he gained 2000 eh 600 subscribers, he managed to monetize the channel. We realize that their most viral video is insane. It got 153,000 views in 3 days. This channel is very recently created. It

[09:18] started 21 days ago to be exact. It already has videos with quite a few good views. 153,000 visits, 64,000 visits, 26,000 visits in 8 days. The miniatures follow this format; they're not

[09:30] editing style, if we're observant, is quite heavily reliant on would do here is use a lot of old Google photos to give the niche that touch of realism . So, I repeat, it's not that it

[09:45] has millions of views, it's not that it has hundreds of thousands of started 21 days ago and has already monetized. The ninth niche contains stories about Nayib Bukele. Nayib Bukele is the president, the great president of El Salvador and

[09:59] famous worldwide, and there is an automated channel that makes content about him. Let's go to the most popular ones. It's from 11 months ago, and has 2.3 million views. Here you are seeing my niche analysis process. I see that it's

[10:13] million views, videos that are above half a million, always talking about the same thing, a very very identical or similar format. If we a year ago. Personally, I always like to use channels that

[10:28] are less than a year old or exactly one year old as a reference. This one perfectly fulfills that theme, that characteristic point. Esteban has I repeat, it's an entry. We need to investigate. We'll probably

[10:41] find more interesting channels, but this niche seems like a share with you is a niche of invented stories about a famous actor. If we go here to the most popular videos, it started a while ago, well, it started, right? The

[10:56] the second most popular video is 4 months old, very recent, one of the top 10 most popular videos was uploaded a month ago . I like that. Well, if we a year old. It started in a niche of a different actor, it has already

[11:12] specific actor, at least the latest videos and the most viral videos. That gives me a very good sign. And in the time that the channel has been open, it has accumulated almost 5 million subscribers. Pay attention here, and this is very important, if you

[11:25] notice, it combines real images or real videos with artificial intelligence. That 's a point you should consider. Because? Because in 2026 YouTube is no longer playing that game where they just take down your channels,

[11:38] demonetize them, so watch out. But I think this is a very, very good video, I want to remind you that this is just the tip of the iceberg. Remember that niche selection is important, it's the cornerstone, the

[11:50] foundation, but it's only the tip of the iceberg compared to everything else you have to do to actually have viral and monetizable channels. But don't completely free guide, I'm not charging you a penny, it's free, where I explain in

[12:03] detail the strategy I use for my own channels and the one used by several of the people I 've helped scale channels in 60, I repeat, it's free, I'm leaving it there so you can take advantage of it and not just

[12:16] random, validated ones, but this list only of niches so you can know what to do next. But anyway, let's continue. Niche number 11. Stories of horses and their adventures with their owners. If we go into this channel, we can observe

[12:31] several interesting things. The first one, 35,000 subscribers, 24 videos published. The channel started posting a year ago, but if we look closely, the most popular videos follow a common pattern. The first videos

[12:44] had nothing to do with it; they are the typical made-up stories of millionaires. But I repeat, if we analyze the data from this channel, the viral pattern in the videos with the most views are horses, and they are quite viral,

[12:56] very recent videos. 1, of visits in 7 months, 800,000 visits in 5 months, 5 months 363,000 views. Suddenly here we have some more recent ones, 2 weeks ago 63,000 visits related to the niche of horses and stories with their

[13:10] owners. The thumbnails are full artificial intelligence, the videos too. I would make some changes to the format, but I think it's very good. Because? Because it's a micro-niche targeting a demographic with a

[13:22] very particular interest, and that for me is one of the foundations for being able to succeed in automated channels. Niche number 12. Videos by Yokoy Kenji that talk about psychology. Jokoi Kenji is a very famous motivational speaker and speaker,

[13:36] but if we notice, this channel started 2 months ago. His most viral video was a month ago, 30 days ago, with 1.3 million views. That's crazy and a green light for me. Their latest videos also have quite

[13:50] good appeal, and what this channel has is that they are quite long videos, channel has is that they are quite long videos, videos of 20 minutes, 47 minutes, 32 minutes, 25 minutes, 30 minutes, and it's basically Yoko and Kenji's

[14:02] lectures animated and modified a little. I think it's a great niche, adapt it to other motivational speakers who may be just as famous, but have n't created automated channels for it. Niche number 13.

[14:16] Extreme construction stories. I really like niches that target people who are over 50 or over 60 years old, because they are the type of people who . What's going on here? Well, we can see that the most viral video is from a

[14:30] month ago. The oldest video posted on this channel is exactly one month old. viral. has maintained consistency in viralizations. Here we can see the video he posted yesterday; it already has 30,000 views in 20 hours. It's a

[14:44] only 11 videos, and with 11 videos it practically already has all the monetization requirements in just one month. A great niche entry, very much thumbnails that follow the same format, a style that uses

[15:00] third-party content, you can use images, you can even use . This one, to me, is a little gem, a niche gem, and that's why I'm sharing it with you. Niche number 14 features stories of artificial intelligence from

[15:14] ancient Mexico, Aztec themes, mesh, etc. If we go into this channel, I really like the type of thumbnails because they follow this format and consistency, same layout, same colors, same font. We see that a video he

[15:27] uploaded 13 days ago has 22,000 views. This channel has 3,000 subscribers. It has a total of 683,000 views. It started 3 months ago and its most viral video has over 100,000 views. I repeat, there are several points that

[15:41] channel doesn't do it well doesn't mean, sorry, that it's a bad niche. Okay, Audiencia Mexicana, which is my audience or my favorite type of audience automated channels. Next niche. Stories of homes in

[15:56] initial niches I shared with you. If we go to this channel, their most popular video is only 3 weeks old. That's why I'm telling you it's a very recent niche, a niche you million visits in 3 weeks, 1 million visits in 3 weeks, half a

[16:10] has a lot of consistency in its views and very recent ones. Mm. In fact, their most recent videos are the ones that have been most successful and are the ones that seem to be most relevant to the niche. They use a lot of third-party content,

[16:25] stock images, and other third-party materials. So, it's something you can easily replicate, and I think it's a niche gem. Next niche, number 16. Stories of most popular videos on this channel, they have nothing, that is, they have a month, 3 weeks,

[16:39] a month, less than 30, 60 days. And these are videos that have hundreds of thousands of miniature is very well made, or they are very well made. Full artificial intelligence, if you're observant, it's 100%

[16:51] artificial intelligence. Here you take the risk that, I mean, yes, you could use third-party content, but I think the key here is full artificial intelligence, which can be a risk, yes, but it's the typical channel

[17:04] open it, I make money, I monetize it quickly, I squeeze every last demonetize it for inauthentic content, I don't care, I made money and that's it. Niche number 17, stories of military weaponry and everything related

[17:18] to it, using artificial intelligence. If we look at the most popular videos, we see that the most popular video is very, very recent. 233,000 views in 4 weeks, 200,000 views in one month,

[17:30] 178,000 views in 2 months. If we go into the channel they use third-party content, but video games. For example, this is a video game where the screen was recorded and that's it . In other words, you could do it yourself without requiring content with three zeros. We see

[17:44] that they also use images, they use stock videos, that's also are failing a lot because there's no consistency; that's an area for improvement for this channel, but it's a very, very good niche. Niche number 18. Monkey fights with

[17:58] other animals. This is a gem. Typical niche whose RPM is not the best, but they do have a lot of views. We just need to look at the most viral video. 294,000 views in one month. In 2 weeks, 271,000. We see that they use

[18:12] content with artificial intelligence; suddenly they are using what appears to be third-party content. The miniatures could be a bit more consistent, but it's okay. And I find it interesting, I mean, it's a pretty

[18:26] a bit short, I don't like that. I would lengthen the much higher RPM, but it's a pretty good niche because with 10 videos he managed to monetize the channel in practically no time. I think it's

[18:41] a little gem. Niche number 19. Accidents involving machinery or automobiles. Anything related to morbid curiosity, to accidents, we already know that it's catchy and we already look at these kinds of miniatures. They're a gem. This type of video does use a lot of

[18:57] third-party content, which is an important thing to consider. Be careful with that. You have to follow the Ninja methodology, my methodology to be able to use content from 3 without getting demonetized or getting hit with copyright. We see that their

[19:09] most viral video again, like this type of niche that I'm sharing with you and always give you very recent quality niches . One month ago, it had 1.1 million views. 2 months ago 84 40,000

[19:22] same. We see that it's a mix of third-party content with probably images I would use to not take so many risks, reduce the amount third-party content or to clips of less than 6 seconds, use overlays, mirror effect

[19:36] could be quite good and well, the views are consistent. In other words, I think that a large part of the videos published on this channel have more than very good percentage. And considering it just opened, it's crazy.

[19:51] Next niche is a military history channel . I like this channel because we are once again appealing a lot to this type of audience of over 50, 60, 70 years old who watch this type of content. If we look at the most viral videos, I repeat, a channel

[20:04] that has been around for a very short time, 4 weeks, 700,000 views, 30 days, 292,000 views, very standardized thumbnails, very good photographs, a very good selection of photos for the thumbnails, which allows the owner

[20:17] of this channel not to use so much editing, so many elements, arrows, text. No, he doesn't use any of that. This channel opened relatively recently, less than 90 days ago, to be exact, 2 months and 60 days. And in 60 days it managed to surpass the

[20:30] 10,000 subscriber mark, it managed to surpass the 2 million view mark in 60 days, which averages the channel at 1 million views per month, a excellent sign of a winning channel. I think this channel is perfect and a very

[20:43] niche I want to share with you, number 21, is locomotive videos. It is very similar to the niche that existed at one time for airplanes and ships; in fact, the miniatures look quite similar. This channel started publishing content 3 months ago

[20:56] explained the rule I mentioned a moment ago. He started publishing content 3 months ago . In these 3 months he already has viral videos with more than 200,000 Pretty good consistency in miniatures. I like miniatures. I would

[21:11] n't change anything about them. If we look at the most recent videos, the style has remained the same. I like that. And if we look at the views, 1.3 as a reference. Niche number 22, videos of how the

[21:25] 22, videos of how the products are made. This is a typical niche that is already very well known. Now, what this channel has is that, look, this started just recently start two weeks ago, but its most viral video has been around for two weeks with almost a

[21:38] million views. His oldest video is 30 days old, it's a month old. Um, has pretty good consistency. Note that the viral pattern in the thumbnails shows women in a rather curious state, which allows for

[21:53] a much higher CTR (click-through rate) and therefore greater virality. If you're going to enter very typical niches like the typical "how to do things" niche, look for differentiators. This channel did it and we can see that

[22:06] the thumbnail differential is working quite well for them . The next niche is the restoration of locomotives or cars, sorry, with artificial intelligence animations. Here we can see the most viral videos, with millions and

[22:18] millions of views. It's a kind of 20-minute ASMR video featuring a fairly famous character. Use very famous characters. I think we all McQueen. Well, this video accumulated almost a quarter of a million

[22:30] views in three weeks. I was very surprised that the first, uh, most viral video that's a month old has 5.2 million views. This easy channel has made a lot of money, more than $20,000 for sure. And in the last month it has

[22:43] to long videos. That's why I'm telling you that videos. I think it's a little gem, a niche gem. Niche number 24 is that of

[22:55] luxury homes with artificial intelligence. I repeat, it's a niche market that's quite popular with dads, adults, mature adults, and senior citizens. Looking at the most popular videos, it has 237,000 views in 3 weeks

[23:08] fairly decent duration, a little over 10 minutes. I think it's very good. Their oldest video is exactly one month old , meaning this channel has nothing, and in just that month, with 13 videos published, it surpassed monetization, already

[23:22] reaching the monetization requirements, more than 700,000 views and what surprises me most, 8,000 subscribers. I think it's a little gem. Next niche. Stories of animals being rescued. This niche appeals heavily to

[23:34] human psychology, emotion, and empathy. These are emotions that go viral on the internet. This channel has only 49 videos published and is already approaching 10,000 subscribers. It has accumulated a total of approximately 3.7 million

[23:46] views. A gem. We're going to the most popular videos, very similar to saw before. I like that. Full artificial intelligence. Take this channel with a grain of salt if you want that AI format exactly like this

[23:59] reference. But we see these videos. 800,000 visits in 60 days, 400,000 visits in 30 days, and 157,000 views in 2 weeks. I think it's a niche gem that you could replicate with the right system. Niche

[24:13] number 26 are survival methods. Remember, always standardize the style caricatured almost all the miniatures, standardizing the style. If the most popular video has only been around for two weeks . This is a gem of a

[24:28] niche entry. It has 284,000 views. This channel has 81 videos and 7,000 subscribers. We see that it has 1.3 million views and the channel started 90 days ago. 1.3 million views seems like a gem to me,

[24:41] especially considering the most popular videos are quite stable and very recent: 13 days, 2 weeks, 8 days, this one from 2 weeks ago, this one from 2 weeks ago, this one from a month ago. It seems like a very good niche to me. It's a bit more

[24:54] amount of time it will take to replicate the editing and the artificial intelligence images they use for the videos, but suddenly, look, the videos, suddenly they do caricature it, which is the complex part,

[25:07] but nothing you can't do yourself from home. Niche number 27 is the niche for exotic cars. If we go to this channel, it has more than 10,000 subscribers with less than 100 videos. I think it's a gem. It has accumulated 2.1 million

[25:22] views. He started publishing 5 months ago, relatively recently, and we can see the style of thumbnails that he started to adopt and is very recent. One month, 900,000 visits, 3 months, 380,000 views, 3 months, 224,000 views.

[25:37] Less than a month ago, 164,000 views. It seems like a great observant here, because there was a considerable change in miniatures. These are the first thumbnails he started uploading, and these are the

[25:49] are the thumbnails with which the channel started, and these are the changes he made that caused him to go viral relatively recently views, I like the length of the videos, it's full of third-party content, you have to be

[26:03] careful there, but I mean, it's something that can be handled without any problem and I think it's an excellent niche. Niche number 28 is the niche of animals or animal fights with other animals, but

[26:18] very exaggerated. We see that this niche is a gem. Because? Because it has videos views, and from 12 days ago with 279,000 views. In this madness, more than half a million visits in 9 days seems like a niche gem to me. It started

[26:33] exactly 2 months ago, 60 days ago. Their most viral video already has 1.5 million views, and in fact, in the 60 days since this channel was created, it has accumulated two videos with more than 1 million views. A super

[26:47] views over the last 30 days, it has 4.8 million. Let's validate with shorts. He doesn't have shorts, he only has one pair of shorts. 3,000 visits doesn't make any difference . It seems crazy to me that with 32 videos he has accumulated 7 million

[27:01] views. This niche is crazy. Great entry, very demanding in artificial intelligence. To be honest, it 's an interesting entry. Niche number 29. I decided to call this particular niche

[27:19] 196,000 views. The video he uploaded 2 days ago has 83,000 views. 3 weeks ago, 158,000 views. The most popular video has 732,000 views. And this channel started

[27:32] 90 days ago. He uploaded his first video 3 months ago . For me, it's always less than 90 days old already accumulate millions of views and have literally made thousands and thousands of

[27:44] very good. The thumbnails are indeed fully artificial intelligence; they don't need text because they are very eye-catching and heavily green. I like that color. And the videos in particular, if you're very

[27:58] observant, use third-party content along with artificial intelligence, which a little too AI-heavy, A, but you could make that modification so you don't have problems monetizing the channel and the niche. I think it's

[28:12] a gem, 18 videos, more than 9000 subscribers and millions of views, it's completely insane. And the last niche I want to share with you is the niche of primitive life. This particular niche also attracts a lot of

[28:24] attention from older adults. Yes, it is heavily reliant on artificial intelligence. to the niche I just told you about, the previous one, but more adapted to a primal theme, a caveman theme, so to speak.

[28:39] weeks, 3 weeks, a quarter of a million views, 3 weeks, 232,000 views. This video is from a month ago, I guess it's a viral one with 2.3 million views. Indeed, it's a gem. Very loaded in Ia, but very

[28:53] very interesting. Niche that started, well, this channel in particular started 60 days ago, 16 videos published, a crazy niche. The truth is that all very good entries if you know how to handle them, if you know what the step-by-step process is

[29:09] niche selection is relevant, it's important, but it's not everything. Now, as I complete guide, which you can find in the description. It's completely free and includes step-by-step instructions for: "Okay, Esteban, I have niche ideas, but how do I validate them?

[29:22] How do I verify that they're good posts? How do I create a content calendar?" All of that is covered in this free guide. See you in the next one!
