[00:01] generate income online without showing your face, this video is for you. YouTube plus artificial intelligence is the most powerful combination that people waste time looking for the perfect business, there are people generating

[00:16] thousands and thousands of euros a month with anonymous [music] channels, without showing their face, without investing in expensive equipment, without previous experience and best of all, starting from scratch. In this video, I'm going to explain why this is

[00:29] the best opportunity in 2026. [music] I'm going to show you the real advantages of this business and give you the exact step-by-step instructions you need to get started today. If you've ever thought about generating income online, but

[00:41] never know where to start, [music] stay until the end, because what I'm about to tell you could change your financial situation in the coming months. I'm going to start by explaining why YouTube plus artificial intelligence is the best

[00:54] opportunity right now. I want you to watch this channel that you are seeing on the screen. It's a channel that I'm dedicating less than 2 hours a week to, meaning that I 'm dedicating between 4 and 8 hours a month. And it's a channel that gives me more than

[01:07] €3,000 a month. And yes, without having to show my face, without having to create the any person, any client. This channel has generated that, about €3,000 in

[01:19] the last 28 [music] days. But if we go back to the beginning, which is exactly a year ago, this channel has generated close to €40,000 by dedicating those hours I mentioned every week and every month. [music] And dedicating so few

[01:33] hours to this type of channel allows you to keep opening channels and creating a network of automated channels that gives you the opportunity to generate more than €5, 10 or €15,000 per month. This combination of YouTube plus artificial intelligence

[01:46] is the best opportunity right now. Because? Because right now is when YouTube is paying all those content creators the most. With this channel that I've shown you, with just over 5 million views, I've generated

[01:59] close to €40,000, and this was impossible a few months ago, a few years ago. Why? Because YouTube didn't pay creators that much, you needed a lot of views, a large audience, and a lot of attention to generate this income.

[02:13] But today YouTube has become the biggest platform and is now creators more. And not only that, but today artificial intelligence allows you to create valuable content. There are many channels that are being

[02:26] demonetized, but that's because people are n't using artificial intelligence correctly. They write the script in a flash, they put the whole video together in a flash, and they publish the videos. And obviously you won't be able to monetize that content

[02:39] today, with the resources and artificial intelligence available, you can create valuable content in just a few minutes. By barrier to entry I mean how accessible it is to a person who has no resources or

[02:52] knowledge. I say it's practically from scratch because you no longer need to pay scriptwriters, voice actors, editors, or thumbnail artists, since, I repeat, you can do all of this with artificial intelligence. The second point I want to

[03:04] important [music], is that you don't need to appear on camera, and that allows for many advantages that I'm going to tell you about right now. There are faceless channels, channels without a face like the one I

[03:16] have several more like that one that are generating 1000 or even less, 500, but they range from 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, I even know of channels that are generating between 5,000 and 10,000 € per month with just that one

[03:31] channel. And the creator of that channel hasn't had to make the videos, hasn't had to appear on the channel, nor has he had to deal with any person. Because? Because no human needs to appear in the

[03:43] using artificial intelligence. Your identity remains completely anonymous, and that's precisely what allows this [music] business appear within the channels, you can literally create as many channels

[03:57] as you want. There is no ceiling. YouTube doesn't tell you that you can only open five channels, but that you can open as many as you want. You can automate all content with artificial intelligence and have 10 or 20 channels that generate

[04:10] income for you every month. I also want to talk to you about something very important, experience. Because? Because artificial intelligence does 80% of the work for you. The heaviest and slowest work involves the scripts,

[04:26] thumbnails, voiceovers, and the video editing itself. But I repeat, with artificial intelligence you can do all that and you can focus on what you really need to focus on, which is being the thinking mind and being the person

[04:40] who decides what decisions are made, which channels are opened and which channels are not. Let's move on to the practical part. And the first thing we're going to do is find, we're going to focus on finding that potential niche, that

[04:55] winning niche. We're going to do it with Claude. As I mentioned before, it is, I would say is currently the best artificial intelligence for performing all the processes, from niche analysis and

[05:07] scriptwriting to thumbnails and everything else we're going to see below. I'm going to show you step by step how to do it, and above all, you can do this whole process with €0 investment, since Claude has the

[05:21] free subscription method, and in fact, I 'm doing this with a free account so you can see—that is, an account without a subscription, the normal subscription—so you can see that you yourself can start today by following exactly

[05:34] the steps we're going to see today. So the first thing you need to understand is that we're going to ask him—we're not going to tell him directly to give us the niches—but we're going to ask him to give us keywords for certain niches so we can

[05:48] then go to YouTube and search for those winning niches. Claude won't do this: "Hey, give me potential niches, winning niches, he'll give them to you and you'll start creating channels and generating income, right?"

[06:00] Clouden, what can help you is to give you those best keywords so that you can then go to YouTube and do the process, which I will obviously also teach you so that you can do it step by step and so that in this

[06:13] video you learn how to do it. Let's ask him, for example, to give us the best keywords to find potential niches, winning niches, faceless niches in the religion niche or the spirituality niche. It's important to

[06:26] you want to look for. In this case, you can start with one, you can start with spirituality, religion, or whatever you have in mind, and gradually search and go through that process. There is no star niche, there is no niche [music]

[06:39] that has more potential than another. That's why we're going to look at all the niches, we're going to look at certain niches and then we're going to do the step-by-step process on YouTube. So we're going step-by-step process on YouTube. So we're going to tell him, "Give me keywords from the

[06:53] to tell him, "Give me keywords from the religion niche to find religion niche to find viral, potential faceless niches within viral, potential faceless niches within YouTube. It's important that you give them to me in

[07:07] English." We're going to ask him directly, and you'll see he's already telling us, "Here are some keywords in English, such, such, such, such, such." Look, religion, mysteries and biblical secrets, okay? He's already giving us

[07:21] the keywords here, okay? And the next step we're going to take is to go to YouTube with these keywords and search for them little by little to see what niches appear. It's important, and you need to know, that we're

[07:33] incognito browsing because if we do it with our own account, we'll see things that YouTube thinks we like, and we don't want that. We want the things that appear [music] in

[07:47] keywords to appear directly to us. So let's go here, let's open a new incognito window. We're going to go to YouTube, and importantly, we're not going to create any accounts. Let's go back here to Cloud, let's copy, for example, this word, let's go back

[08:02] here to YouTube and paste it and see what appears. To do this, we're going to go to filters, we're going to add channels, and we're also going to add videos longer than 20 minutes, okay? We'd better remove the channels

[08:16] . We're only going to post videos longer than 20 minutes, okay? Because? Because generally, if we look for videos longer than 20 minutes, the automated channels, the Faceless channels, which are exactly what we

[08:30] want, are usually longer than 20 minutes. Look, this is most likely an automated channel. Also, notice that no face appears. subscribers, right? This one doesn't interest us at all, but above all it's

[08:43] important that you also understand the characteristics, right? We're going to focus on channels that have few subscribers and a high volume of visits, and above competition in Spanish, meaning that

[08:56] this is an automated channel, but we see that it is a pretty 's still active today, and if we look at the most popular videos, we'll see videos from a year ago with 4.2 million views. This could very well be a

[09:11] potential niche, so we might want to keep it in mind to see if anyone is already process of searching for niches, you create a Drive document, a Google Docs, and paste the links to

[09:24] those channels, potential niches that you've found. Let's come back here and copy, for example, this keyword and go back here to YouTube again and search. We're going to do exactly the same process, we're

[09:38] going to give it more than 20 minutes. Notice that automated channels appear, okay? This is an automated channel, also in English. It's quite a subscribers. But if we look at popular videos, videos with 16 million

[09:52] views, we're not interested in this specific channel. Because? Because it's a specific video that's been published for more than 5 years , so we're interested in them recently he has been publishing every two weeks, one month, uh, one month, three months,

[10:07] but all those visits don't go beyond the subscribers the channel has. So, we can't guarantee that these visits are from the channel's existing audience and not from a new audience, meaning that it's not

[10:19] working. Yes, but this would be the idea, not the niche itself. So the process would be to keep searching and searching. As you can see, we have already would be this one here. The step-by-step process would be to

[10:34] YouTube, look for channels of that style, and then choose the one that you see as having the most potential, the most views in relation to subscribers, and that has no competition. In fact, the other day I made this calculator with Claude at a

[10:46] moment when it shows me how much potential that channel has, okay? So if you're okay with it, let's do it with the channel we just found to see how much potential [music] it has. We see that the channel had 600,000 subscribers, so

[10:59] let's put 600,000 subscribers here in terms of the number of visits it's generating per month. We can go here with the Bit IQ extension and we could see that in the last 7 days it has generated a little over

[11:13] 600,000. Let's say it's generating more than 2 million visits, Okay, so let's go here, okay? Let's put 2.3 million views, [music] okay? And in terms of CPM, RPM, since these are quite

[11:28] long videos, we're going to set a minimum RPM, which is what YouTube pays you for every 1000 views of five videos, okay? So we'd go here, put in five, and it would tell us that this channel is

[11:42] five, and it would tell us that this channel is generating, well, $300 a month, okay? So, as you've seen, it's a completely untapped niche. We've done it, and we've done everything step by step with Cloud. In fact, I

[11:54] also made this calculator with Cloue, and to find more potential niches and more variations, all you would have to do is invest more time in finding more keywords and searching for more potential niches. We're

[12:07] also going to use Cloue for the scripts, and we're going to tell him, "I want you to help me make quality YouTube scripts." And look what it tells us.

[12:19] but to do it right. And here it asks us some questions that, if you result, in this case, if you want Claude to give you the best result, you have to give it the best possible context. So , what is the topic or niche of your

[12:33] channel? Okay, here you give it context, you already have video ideas, such, such, such, such, you have any style references, what kind of videos do you make, okay? So we'd have to questions here, okay? For example, here we would put biblical experiences. Do

[12:49] help you find them? Let's put the script here, okay? And it's always important to include a reference script. In this case we're going to go

[13:01] put the one from, for example, a year ago. We're going to go further, we're going to show the transcript, okay? And we're going to copy it here and we're going to put it back in the cloud and we've got the script, this is it. We're going to put it on [music] we've

[13:16] copied it. We're going to answer you, do you have any reference style, let's say like [music], the reference script. What kind of videos do you make? Divulgatory story time, okay? And approximately how long is each video?

[13:32] Let's say how long this video is. We're going to change it from 50 minutes to an video is. We're going to change it from 50 minutes to an hour. one hour. Let's press enter and notice that it will now analyze what we have entered and will begin with the

[13:45] script. Notice that I've told him this and he's already starting to structure everything. He's saying the hook, the promise, the act, he's analyzing the script that reference, right? It's very important to always provide a good example, a good reference script, when creating a good script with

[13:57] artificial intelligence, in this case with Claude, because otherwise you won't get the best result. He's given us help you write a script again using our structure?" Yes,

[14:12] especially that it's not a copy- paste of the reference music. We're going to press enter. And now, if all goes well, I should start writing the script. They

[14:24] ask us more about which character or story you want the this one. I'm going to make it up because I have n't seen the video right now. I From what point of view do you want to tell the story? Let's put it as the

[14:38] reference script. Which tone do you want to prioritize? Mix the three together and see if he asks us anything else. Notice if he's asking us what the central thesis is that you want to defend [music] about Kain, okay? And here it says, "Do what

[14:50] at the end of the video? All three things at once." Okay, Claude is being a bit of a pest here, but he's asking us as many questions as possible to get as much context as possible. Notice that we 've already given him this. So, now he

[15:06] tells us he's going to start writing the script. And I want to repeat that I 'm using this Cloua tool myself, and I don't have a trial subscription. I do have my other trial subscription account, but I'm not

[15:19] using this one so you can see that anyone can start with this today. Or notice that he just finished the script, and he didn't just put it here for us; he created all this so

[15:33] we have it looking nicer, right? It's amazing. Here we should analyze whether we need to expand on anything, if not, but notice that he does n't just give you the script, which isn't really useful, but it's an

[15:47] extra that Cloua gives you, and you could copy and paste this and start working on it. Voiceover. As [music] you've seen, we did it in, I don't know, 3 or 4 minutes, and you simply have to follow the step-by-step instructions I just

[16:01] showed you here. To create the voiceovers, we're going to use Elevenlabs. Elevenlabs is an artificial intelligence tool for converting text to speech with AI. This tool is indeed paid, but it has a

[16:13] free trial, so it's perfect for those of you who are just starting out. It's true that if you have several channels you'll have to pay for it, but there aren't many, so it's not much money. [music] To use it, you'll have to come here to

[16:25] text to speech and automatically paste the script that Cloud generated for us earlier. Here we can select the voices that Elevenlabs has, okay? There are voices available and voices that aren't available

[16:38] depending on your plan. Here you can adjust the speed, stability, similarity, and exaggeration. Okay? Here you can experiment depending on what you want and what you don't. So you can see

[16:51] Obviously, all of this is in English right now , but if we put the want to copy the script it gave us. Well, if we want to copy a paragraph, we copy it here, paste it here, and then we click "

[17:05] Generate Speech," and that's it. For the thumbnails, we're also going to use Cloud, and to make a good thumbnail, we always need a reference thumbnail. Otherwise, whether it's the AI, a designer, or whoever

[17:18] , they're never going to give us a good thumbnail if we never give them a reference one. So, imagine we want to make this thumbnail, but in this case, make it in English, make it in Spanish. Well, what would we

[17:32] do? We'd download it here. We'd go to Cloud, start a new conversation, and here we'd say, "I want you to help me generate a thumbnail from scratch." I'm going to give you the one I have as a reference, and you

[17:49] going to give you the one I have as a reference, and you just have to change the just have to change the text from English to Spanish. Let's leave the thumbnail we just downloaded right here. And we would have to

[18:01] the thumbnail directly, or maybe it will [music] Notice that it tells us, "Understood, I'm going to create a replicated thumbnail in this style, full wig instead of full movie." And notice that it says it's

[18:13] drawing the background, and it's already adding the characters and doing everything. Notice that it's already creating the thumbnail. This is going to be in a matter of seconds. Notice that it's doing it in a moment. It already has the clouds, it already

[18:25] book. The good thing is that we can see how it's doing it step by step. Notice that it's already building everything. Notice that it's already generating what's on the right. And notice that it has already generated the thumbnail. Obviously, it has

[18:40] made the little figure a little different. Why? Because we want it not to be exactly the same. Because if it were exactly the same, they could say something about copyright, and we could have serious problems. So here

[18:53] you would refine what you want to refine, what you don't. What do you want it to look more like, what do you want it to look less like? But if you look closely, and we've even done it in real time, we've created a thumbnail

[19:05] would have to tell it to, for example, remove these borders. All that's left is to assemble the complete video, and these days I recommend CapCut, since it's a tool that's been around for many years and is easy to

[19:19] use. What we would have to do is download that voiceover we made with Elevabs and assemble a video. What do I recommend? That you go [music] here to video. What do I recommend? That you go here to create

[19:31] new. You're going to select 16 2.9. And here what you would have to do is create images [music] and combine them with that voiceover

[19:43] we made earlier and add some automatic subtitles, which can be completely free of charge. I'm going to talk to you now about the real advantages of this model of Business. The reality is that this business has no limits, and as

[19:59] I mentioned before, you can scale and create the network of channels you want. A channel can generate income 24/7 without your presence, since the video you publish today, or the channel you create today, the content you upload there,

[20:15] can continue generating income for the next 10 days, 30 days, 3 months, 12 In fact, I'm going to show you some videos here that are still generating income today. Look at this video here. This video was uploaded 84 days ago, has

[20:30] 600,000 views, and is generating income every day. In these 84 days, that is, less than 3 months, it has generated close to €5,000 with just one video.

[20:43] Imagine you have 10 channels where you publish every day, or four videos a week across all those channels, and that all of those videos are generating income. Obviously, I want to be transparent and realistic with you. Not

[20:56] you can create videos that generate at least $5 to $10 a day. As I mentioned before, you can also open 5, 10, 15, or 20 channels as you want, because content creation is the most time-consuming and labor-intensive part. These

[21:11] done with artificial intelligence, so especially since, as I mentioned earlier, the channel doesn't need to be associated with any person. Personal brand channels

[21:24] such as IB [music], can't create 20 channels for their own brand. Why? Because their time is limited, and they couldn't be recording every day for those 20 channels. However, with these types of channels

[21:38] [music], they can, because, again, they aren't associated with any brand, and the videos you upload can continue generating income for months to come, as in the I also want to talk about the minimum investment to get started. You don't need a

[21:51] camera, a microphone, or... Study. You don't need a team to create low-cost artificial intelligence tools that allow you to do all of that. You don't

[22:03] need to spend $200, $300, or $500 a month on equipment, content, or anything else to create content. These days , at most, you can

[22:19] at most, because Cloude is free, and all the tools I'm going to show you have free trials, so you can use them without at most, you'll have to pay $50 a month. I also want to talk to you about

[22:32] geographical and time freedom. You can literally work from anywhere in the world. To give you an example, last week I was in Mexico and I was without any problems. Why? Because I only need a computer or just my

[22:47] phone to work and manage those channels. And the best part is that you decide whether to dedicate 2 hours a day or 10 hours a day. When You already have a channel that generates $1,000, $2,000, or $1,000 a month, right?

[23:01] Working more hours means you'll have more income. [music] If you create good processes, if you create good systems, dedicating just a few hours a week, you can generate the exact same income. And yes,

[23:13] I also want to talk to you about how when a channel is grown, when a channel is already solid and you've worked on it for a minimum of several months, [music] that income is passive. And why do we say it can be passive income?

[23:26] Because that video you upload that day, since it can continue to generate income in the following days, the following months, that income that keeps coming in is completely passive income. But be careful, by passive I don't mean that it will be

[23:39] easy income, not at all, simply that it can become passive. The good thing about this is also that your identity isn't public, [music] that is , nobody knows who you are, you don't have to expose yourself to anything or anyone, and in the

[23:53] end, you don't have the risk of Burning your own personal brand image. I'm going to talk to you now about the mistake that 90% of people make. People who start from scratch and don't know about this business start without a
