There are many men and women who want to be successful with their online marketing endeavors, but they don't want to compete in a niche where using certain platforms means putting your face on camera.
With Faceless AI Video Secrets, you'll learn how you can not only be successful, but also maintain your privacy!

Whether it's for the simple fact that you want to retain your anonymity or you are tapping into multiple niches as a leader and don't want the cross recognition - or even because you simply don't want to show your face on screen, there are now more options for you to succeed that are even faster and better than before.
Social media platforms often pay content creators who consistently churn out video content that gets more views and engagement than others. There is a lot of money to be made with this strategy, and you can leverage artificial intelligence (AI) tools to do the work for you and multiply your income across the board.
- The first thing you have to do is have a niche that works well with faceless videos. There are many of them, and you'll be pleased to find that the topics have a wide range of different interests.
- Second, you need to figure out which platform(s) you want to be working on. You can earn content creator funds on both YouTube and TikTok, for instance. You can even have longer videos for your YouTube channel and shorter faceless videos on TikTok.
- Finally, you have to decide how you'll use AI. There are a couple of different ways you can use it to get the job done, and one requires a subscription to an AI video tool, while the other simply leverages AI to a certain degree and has you do a little more of the work.
We are going to cover both of those options using a variety of niche examples and show you how to monetize your faceless AI videos in different ways so that you are cultivating multiple streams of income with this strategy.
Why Faceless Videos Attract Marketers and Consumers
Just a few years ago, many online entrepreneurs felt as if they had to sit on the sidelines when it came to video marketing simply because they didn't want to be on screen.

The only way to get around it was for them to either record a product review showing their hands and the products only or to use a slideshow presentation and screen capture recording software - but even this made many people uncomfortable because they still had to use their own voice.
Now, faceless videos have turned into something completely different. Using a series of video clips or static images, with a narrative playing over the scenes and captions for the audience, you can have a full video that includes zero parts of you.
That means, not only can you have anonymity with your user account name, but you can also share advice and insight or have AI come up with it completely in a way that doesn't reveal who you are to the masses.
This is a very real problem for many people. We've seen stalker situations occur, harassment and doxing unfold - it's no wonder many people want to keep their privacy when it comes to video marketing to people they don't know.
With the new way to create faceless videos using AI tools, not only do you get to preserve and protect your identity, but you also get to scale your productivity tremendously because of the speed and effectiveness AI provide you with.
It's capable of producing a wide variety of content styles, which give you the option to tap into numerous niches and grow your income without having to worry about someone pointing out your other accounts.
When it comes to AI development of faceless videos in particular, marketers are simply tired of having to go through the time-consuming process of creating videos by having to storyboard the concept, record their narrative on their own, and then edit it to perfection.
By using AI for this purpose, everything can be automated including...
- the script
- the narration
- the editing
...so that the output is speed up and the burden of creativity and tech tasks are now off your plate.
With AI, you'll be able to have many different video styles, voiceovers, and music options that can cater to your audience in the best way possible. It's a quick way to experiment with different methods to reach your viewers and get the best engagement with less work.
This explains why many marketers are now moving into faceless videos, but what about consumers? What makes someone want to watch a faceless video being narrated by an AI over the possibility of watching a real human account?
If you've paid attention to social media news for any length of time, you'll know that there are many consumers who are sick and tired of the egos and scandals that eventually plague the influencers on these platforms.
Consumers are very self-centered when it comes to their needs. They are constantly looking for advice that can help them, and they don't care if it's coming from a person or a screen showing good information.
If you go on YouTube or TikTok and look up videos in your niche, specifically searching for those without human faces on the thumbnail, you'll find that there is just as much engagement and views as there are for high profile influencer accounts.
- Consumers are feeling fatigue when it comes to celebrities and influencers and having to deal with their controversies when they just wanted good advice they could adopt into their own life.
- They trust people less and they have made a shift more towards the information and value they are getting rather than being a blind follower to someone who is only concerned with self promotion and self-serving interests.
With faceless AI video content, the consumer doesn't have to worry about the personality of the person behind the account. They get these valuable nuggets they can take away from the video and apply to their own life without any distractions of who said what and who is in a spat with who.
Best Niches for Faceless Videos
You may be wondering what niches are going to be your best option for faceless videos. The truth is, almost any niche can be a good fit, but you want to conduct a little bit of research to make sure you are finding something similar or test a few videos to see how it is received.
Sometimes, it might depend on which platform you're talking about as to whether or not it's going to be a good fit for faceless videos on that social media platform. You might find some topics are great for faceless videos on TikTok, but not so much on YouTube.
Let's go through a few of them so that you can see examples of topics that do well whenever there is a video that is created and narrated by AI without your direct face and audio input.
Advice & Lifestyle
The first is advice or lifestyle concepts. There are many people who are interested in things like productivity hacks, parenting advice, relationship advice, time management tips, mindful living, and other feel good topics that they can apply to improve their own life.
Travel
You'll also find the travel niche is one that is very popular with faceless video audiences. People like to see the locations and hear the voice over, and they don't care whether or not the voice comes from a real person or an AI.
Do It Yourself
If you are in the niche of DIY projects, whether it's putting together a chicken coop or doing something else with your family, this is a topic that can do well as long as you have visuals that show the instructions while the narrator is talking.
Education
Educational niches do well with this topic. Sometimes, you'll find faceless videos where people are discussing the history of something. It might be far in the past or more recent events.
Animal
The topic of animals is very big in faceless videos. You'll see videos where the AI is showing images of a shark or lion that looks like it's about to attack, while the narrator tells a story of a real life event that happened.
Sometimes, the animals will be cute videos, where the narration is discussing the top 10 cutest breeds or best breeds to own if you love dogs. Or it might be a warning about how to stay safe from and an attack by a certain animal.
Entertainment
True crime is a very big niche in general, but even more so with faceless videos because people are fascinated by what has happened historically in certain circumstances and sometimes these can be paired with a 911 call to enhance the engagement of the listener.
There are also other entertainment niches people like to listen to. You'll find topics about aliens or other supernatural issues, unsolved mysteries that may not necessarily be crime, or even commentary about movies and TV shows that people are reviewing through the use of AI.
Motivational
There is a high demand for tidbits of motivational content. They are looking for inspiration to get them through tough times and to help elevate them to the next level of success in their lives.
Fitness & Health
Fitness and health are two niches that go hand in hand and are often found to be very engaging with faceless AI video techniques. There are videos that have earned a tremendous amount from simply showing video snippets of fit people or how exercises are done, and narrating over it about the benefits of using these techniques.
Cooking
Cooking is another popular topic for faceless AI videos. Sometimes, it'll be something that ties into fitness and health, like meal prep for weight loss, and you can use stock images with the AI narrative to walk them through some advice.
Survival
The messages aren't always uplifting and inspiring. Sometimes, they come as a warning. One niche that you can use faceless AI videos in for this purpose is survival prepping.
Not only can you give videos about the dangers they may face, which draw the attention of many people, but you can also give tutorials on how to survive in the wilderness or live off grid and save money.
Beauty
Another niche that does well with faceless videos is skin care or beauty. Both of these work in conjunction, and viewers are often mesmerized by the tips that show transitions or inspiration they can use in their own life.
Success Formula for Faceless Videos
As you can see, most niche topics are going to be viable solutions for faceless AI videos. The key is in having the right formula for success whenever you are using these types of videos or you are not on screen as the presenter.
In order for these to be effective, you need to have a few things working for you.
Keep in mind that if you are using an AI video tool, they will often have some of these supplied for you. But you always have the option to upload your own and tailor the content however you want if you want full control over it.
- The second thing you need is a good script. Some of the AI video tools have the ability to take your basic prompt and write a script and storyboard for it. But some people like to have their own input into the content they are putting out - they just don't want to be on camera for the publishing.
- You also want to have a good idea of who you want to target and what message they need to hear. Do some research (use AI if you want to) and find out their pain points so you can address those.
- Consistency in publishing is going to be imperative to you profiting from faceless videos. Because AI is going to do most of the work for you, make sure you’re uploading frequently so the algorithms on these platforms continue showing your new videos to people.
Another aspect of your success formula for faceless videos with AI is in finding the right tools. You might be able to get away with basic help using ChatGPT or Google’s Gemini, which I'll show you how to do next.
But if you do want to use one of the paid video AI tools, make sure you choose one that is within your budget and that allows you to have some editing control over what the output is.
- Ideally, you won't always use static images. It's a good idea to use stock videos or even animations - something with motion in it so that the graphics draw in the attention of the viewer even more than a picture would.
- The voice you are using to narrate your faceless videos is going to be important. I'm going to show you how to select your AI voice later, but you want something that isn't going to be irritating to the viewer and a voice that matches the tone of the message.
It shouldn't sound too much like a robot. You want it to sound as if a real man or woman is narrating the video, and there are some tools that provide good quality for this and some that lack a natural appeal.
Because your goal is to monetize your faceless AI videos, you want to make sure that you are paying attention to optimization factors that can impact whether or not your content is discovered on those platforms.
That means you pay attention to the:
- titles
- thumbnails
- descriptions
- keyword tags
These help to improve the ability for your videos to get found by those who are interested in the message you have uploaded.
Using Basic Free AI for Faceless Videos
Not everyone has the budget or even wants to use an AI video tool that does all of the work for them. You can still use ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini to help you with most of the work for a faceless video account.
Pre Production
Part of what it can do is the pre production aspect of your faceless video marketing. That means it can help you with specific niche video content ideas. It can look into the demographic research to tell you who your ideal viewer is and what they will respond best to on a faceless video channel or account.
Competitor Analysis
It can also do some of the preliminary competitor analysis work that is needed to see how you'll be competing with both faceless accounts as well as those with human influencers behind them.
If you want one of these tools to give you content ideas, you can simply prompt it like this:
“Give me suggestions for 14 faceless videos I can create using stock images and narration in the [topic] niche where I am publishing twice a day.”
If you have anything specific you want, such as something based on a certain keyword phrase, you can give it that phrase and ask for video ideas directly related to that.
For example, we will prompt it like this:
“Give me 14 suggestions for faceless videos I can create using stock images and narration in the gardening niche based on the keyword phrase organic gardening tips with a good variety of different content.”
AI is going to come back with some great ideas such as:
- an introduction to organic gardening
- top 10 organic gardening tips for beginners
- how to start an organic vegetable garden
- composting 101: how to create rich organic compost
- natural pest control methods for organic gardeners, etc.
For each one of these it gives you the basic idea and then tells you what types of images or videos you want to have, such as photos of common garden pests and natural pest deterrents.
At that point, you can take one of the ideas I gave you and ask it to draft a video script for you in a conversational tone for a video that is at least 1 ½ minutes long.
You can prompt AI like this:
“Create a video script for a faceless video using stock images on the topic of natural pest control methods for organic gardeners. Along with the script, tell me what image should be shown at each transition point. Make sure the tone is conversational. It should be enough for 1 ½ minutes of content.”
AI does a wonderful job of creating a script and storyboard for you, going so far as to tell you to start with an opening image of a lush organic garden with vibrant plants and giving you the exact wording for the narrator to read.
It will look something like this:
[Opening Image: Lush organic garden with vibrant plants]
Narrator: Welcome to our guide on natural pest control methods for organic gardeners. No chemicals, just safe and effective solutions for a healthy garden.
[Image: Close-up of a ladybug on a leaf]
Narrator: First up, introduce beneficial insects to your garden. Ladybugs, lacewings, and spiders are great at controlling aphids, mites, and other pests.
[Image: Companion plants like marigolds and basil in a vegetable garden]
It also ends with a call to action to ask the viewer to subscribe to the channel or follow the account and it gives you a list of the image transition points you should be following throughout the storyboard.
You can also ask AI what type of background music you should have in the video and which the type of narrator would be the best for delivering the message and getting more engagement.
When you prompt AI and ask for this information, it gives you a chart of how to check for the background music and narration style for each video that you create.
For example, this is an educational or explainer video, so you'll want calm or uplifting background music with an informative and friendly sounding narrator.
After you get all of this preliminary information from AI, you can create your own faceless AI videos using TikTok or different types of tools if you're going to be uploading on YouTube.
It will be up to you to piece together the production where you are pairing the stock image or video along with the captions and narration. This can be a little more time consuming, which is why many people like to splurge on an AI video tool that does all of this for you.
Full Production with Paid AI Tools
There are many different paid AI video tools that you can use to create these faceless productions. One example is called InVideo.io and it is considered an AI copilot for your video creations.
You can test InVideo.io out for free, but it does have a watermark and doesn't include eye stock images. It also doesn't include voice clones, which is a perk available in the paid options where you can clone your own voice if you would like it to represent you in your videos.
You can pay monthly or yearly for these services. Typically, if you decide to pay annually, you will save about 20%. If you want to pay a monthly fee, you can get the Plus account for $25.00 a month or the Max account for $60.00 a month.
The biggest account will:
- allow you to create 200 minutes a month of AI generated videos
- access to 320 eye stock images per month
- 400 gigabytes of storage
- unlimited exports
- 5 voice clones
This is the kind of tool where you can have as much or as little input as you want.
When you log into your account, it will ask you to give it a topic and detailed instructions. You can prompt AI with the topic, time, and any other specifications that you want for your video.
In order to monetize your videos on TikTok, they need to be over one minute long. So you might tell it to create a video that is 1½ minutes to ensure you get paid for your content.
Plus, this allows any buffer to be in place in case you want to delete anything from the video and have room leftover for you to have enough seconds on your video to enable monetization.
A simple prompt for a faceless AI video might look like this:
“Create a video on the topic of natural pest control methods for organic gardeners. The duration should be 90 seconds long. I want the methods illustrated with relevant stock images or clips. Keep the language conversation and simple and use a calm and friendly American female voice.”
#1: You will choose where you want to use this video. You can choose it as a YouTube explainer or short video, or click explore all and choose TikTok or Instagram Reel. If you choose TikTok, it's going to have you fill in a little bit of information that includes what background music you want, the language, subtitles, watermarks, etc.
#2: Then, all you have to do is click "Generate Video". After analyzing your instructions, it's going to ask you for more information about who your audience is. In this case it asks if it is gardeners, eco friendly, or DIY enthusiasts.
#3: It will also ask you for the look and feel of the video, such as inspirational, clean, or bright and it will ask you again to confirm the platform. Once you click Continue, in just a few seconds, it will have a video pieced together for you to review.
#4: When the video is complete, you have the option to give it a new command and regenerate or simply go in and edit it so that it's not taking away from your previous number of generations.
#5: When you click the Edit button, you'll be able to edit the media, the script, or the music. If you click on any of the images it has used, it will highlight the text that goes along with that image.
#6: You can type in a keyword phrase to search for new media and choose that to overwrite the original one. If you click on the edit script, you'll be able to edit each piece of the storyboard.
Keep in mind that it may affect the length of the video if you delete too much or add too much. When you are editing the script, it also has an option to edit the media along with it simply by clicking on media and typing in new keywords to accompany that short bit of text.
#7: If you don't like the music that it included, you can click on edit music and search through the music library for something that you want to replace it with. You can also click on the three dots to the right of the music selection and choose to lower the volume or make it fade in and out if you want to.
#8: Once you have it polished to perfection, you can click the Export option and choose whether or not you want watermarks as well as the Invideo AI branding. And you can choose the resolution, whether you want 480p, 720p, 1080p, or 4K.
Whenever you are exporting, it will tell you how many of your iStock available licenses you are using up. These will reset every month if you are signed up for the service.
You also have the option to upload your own media if you prefer not to use some of their stock images or clips.
Monetizing Faceless Videos
The most important thing you're probably wondering is how you can monetize these faceless videos.
Content Creator Funds
One method that many people are hoping to achieve is content creator funds where they're getting paid on autopilot for videos that get a lot of views and engagement.
You have to look at the preliminary requirements of each platform to determine whether or not you are eligible for monetization. For example, there are rules in place about:
- how many followers or subscribers you need to have
- how many hours of views you need to have before you can monetize
- and how long a viewer has to watch a certain video in order for it to count it towards your monetization.
But this is the ultimate goal, and if you can create a system where you are continually having AI churn out faceless videos for you to upload that get 10s of thousands if not millions of views, you'll begin to build an incredible income off of the content creator fund.
Affiliate Marketing
Another thing you can do to monetize faceless AI videos is to have affiliate marketing recommendations. You can either promote these in the description of a YouTube video or you can have a LinkTree link in the bio of your TikTok account where you link out to things that you are promoting.
Your Own Products
There are some content creators who promote their own tangible or digital products or services, whether it's through a link in their bio or the description or even the TikTok shop.
Just make sure that you are always giving instructions for it to include a specific call to action within the AI video. This may be something as simple as check out the link in the bio or download a free report below.
Subscriptions
Another option you have to monetize your faceless videos is to create more premium content that you offer audiences as a subscription service. There are people who have YouTube channels with basic information, but subscribers go through Patreon to be able to access more in depth information.
Sponsorships & Ads
And of course, you also have the option of monetizing it through the use of sponsored posts and ads. There are brands that will be willing to pay for you to include a mention of their products within your videos, whether you are a human influencer or an AI faceless video account.
All they care about is whether or not your videos are well received. If you are getting plenty of views and engagement, whether that includes comments or likes and shares, they want to get their name in front of your audience.
Scaling Your Faceless Video Business
Lastly, you want to consider how you're going to scale your faceless video empire so that you continue increasing your profits. You're going to begin by expanding all of your monetization options with existing videos.
But another way that you can scale this type of business is to multiply the production of your videos.
- That might mean using a virtual assistant who can follow your instructions to use AI to produce even more videos for your account.
- You can also reinvest some of your earnings to sign up for multiple AI video tools and have them all working for you at once so you have more coverage in your niche.
- You can also take the route of tapping into additional niches if this method is working well for you.
You don't have to have related niches in order to open new accounts or channels on social media. You can have a faceless AI video account on TikTok about survival prepping, and then have one for relationship advice for women and another for advice about how to make money online.
Just don't spread yourself so thin to the point where your accounts are not getting consistent uploads. You want to keep feeding the algorithm in a way that allows it to send more people to you because it knows you are an active account that gets the kind of engagement they are looking for.
This is a great system for people who want a fast, easy, and almost free way to make money. It's also great for those who feel shy or who want to maintain their privacy for any reason.
You can even create these types of videos for other niche marketers and sell them as private label rights. As the creator of that AI video, you give them permission to download and sell the content to others.
You could create entire packages where you have text content paired with social media faceless videos that marketers can use to elevate their exposure to the target audience they are zeroing in on.
Make sure you are paying attention to the data analytics you get back from social media telling you which of your faceless AI videos are a hit with your target audience compared to those that are being mostly ignored.
You can then take this information and feed it into AI to conduct a data analysis for you and tell you how you might be able to improve your channel so that it is getting more discoverability, views and engagement.
You might have to tweak your account slightly so that you are targeting a specific demographic element or narrowing down your topics ever so slightly. But AI will be able to tell you, based on your data, what the best course of action will be.
