AI Voice Monetization on YouTube — Full Breakdown & Transcript

[00:01] Yep, but you got to make sure that YouTube doesn't red flag your content. asking a monetized AI voice channel what they did right. So, I talked to two of them and I learned a lot more than I expected. All right, Levi, you are a

[00:15] creator that uses an AI voice, right? >> Yes, that's correct. >> Yes. >> Okay, how long ago did you get >> Oh gosh, what It was late March, like the last week of March.

[00:27] >> Okay, so it's fairly recent that you've been using an AI voice and it didn't hold you back from getting monetized. >> No, when I first got monetized, I was using an AI voice. I wasn't using the more popular ones when I first got

[00:41] >> Uh do you think that helped a little >> I think the less popular voice might have contributed to getting monetized because if you're using a voice that's been used by millions of channels, that

[00:53] it's easier for the algorithm to be like, "Okay, this is potentially slop." >> Yes. >> Okay, let's say AI voices were banned

[01:05] backup plan? >> I would probably just get a voice over >> I would probably just get a voice over artist on like Fiverr or Upwork or voice over people are like normal people with normal lives. They need to go on

[01:18] everything. Basically, I can turn over a voice within like 5 minutes versus like take days of turnaround time. >> 2 days, okay. >> And I can't do that if I have a voice

[01:33] >> Right, you have experience in this. You did hire voice actors before, didn't >> Yeah, and they're great and they're awesome. Actually, I prefer a normal voice actor. I mean, if I did long-form, I'd for sure just do voice actors.

[01:47] >> Right. But since I'm doing shorts, I I have to keep the production budget low, make this sustainable. >> How many views have you gotten recently? >> This last month I'm at around the 8 million, 9 million mark, so it's doing

[02:01] pretty good. I'm pretty hopeful of the future because even though my views are not strong as as they used to be in some parts, like and they're not that bad. They're not that down, but my revenue is still like up for some reason. So I'm

[02:13] revenue up. >> Oh. Oh, hey, keep me updated on that. >> Yeah, of course. >> Next up we got the creator of the you're seeing here is our community where we do weekly Q&A's, channel

[02:25] crap ton of tools to help everybody go viral on the shorts feed. This tool was two got started before they got better than me. So, when you're ready to join us, link is in the description. Now, Prenish. Hello Prenish. How are you?

[02:39] >> I'm fine, you? >> Good, good. Oh, hey, by the way, this it. That one was yours. That one was the one I was going to hit with a baseball >> [laughter] >> And I mean, obviously we have Levi's

[02:51] >> And I mean, obviously we have Levi's right here. >> Yeah, yeah. I recently got re-monetized and I'm back to the schedule of creating >> Good, man. That's That's great to hear. I really think that YouTube dropped the

[03:06] making up for it. >> Yeah, yeah. I'm seeing multiple channels >> You were pretty adamant about getting re-monetized. Did you try to appeal did it go? >> Yeah, yeah. I actually I was posting

[03:20] daily on my main account on Twitter, but I think that team YouTube on Twitter was actually blacklisting or blocking accounts which were tagging them too >> Oh, wow. Okay. >> So I actually created a new and do a new

[03:33] >> So I actually created a new and do a new appeal on day 47 and it actually got a >> Like immediately? >> Yeah, yeah. I haven't got a response in my actual official account, but on that new account it got the response within

[03:47] like an half an hour and after 8 hours I think it got re-monetized. Wow. I almost don't want to share that info because there's so much slop out might ruin it for some people, but that's a really great point to learn,

[04:01] ago did you get monetized? >> I was actually monetized on September of 2025. >> And so you use AI voices to, right? >> Yeah, yeah. I started with and mostly used AI voice. Now I'm trying to use my

[04:17] own voice and my own face in the video. Like you used to do. >> Oh, okay. That's cool. >> I actually saw the video that you made on VidIQ. That helped me on writing script like telling the unexpected

[04:29] points that escalating his line. What do you call that? Viral hook or something? >> [laughter] >> I watched that video and immediately I first video in my channel. >> Oh, that's awesome. Yeah, I think I

[04:44] called it something like the mega viral shorts formula or something like that. >> [laughter] >> After And after that I kept creating. At first I was using PNG animation and later I switched to video animation.

[04:59] a short now? >> I actually finished right now and filming and animation took me 2 days. >> 2 days. Okay. The big point I'm trying to make to people here is that sure you can use an AI voice, but like the people

[05:15] that it works for put a significant amount of work into their workflow. So it's not just AI does all this and then I upload it and then it goes viral and I work than that. >> Yeah, it's very bad on writing script or

[05:28] finding ideas. That's for sure. >> Uh how many subscribers do you have now? >> All right. Well, uh before I let you go, do you have any any advice for anybody kind of looking to get into YouTube, but they they don't really want to use their

[05:42] voice. They might want to use AI voice. >> I think it could work because YouTube is actually assigning human to look into the case more often right now than it >> So, as simple as I can make this, AI voices are fine as long as the human

[05:54] execution are original. And if that sounds like good news, then you're you belong in the real creator community, link in the description. Now, where to start, I recommend The Perfect Hook. This has made me some money and it
