Read the transcript

Have you ever thought about fully automating your faceless channel?

The video on the right was made start to finish by one AI tool: the research, the script, the voice-over and every drawing.

I'll show you how to make one, and how to put your channel on autopilot.

Everything starts with a template: your look and settings, saved once and reused for every video. You can start from a premade one, but I'll build my own.

Pick one of eleven stickman art styles, your character, the voice, captions and the length, and save it.

Now make a video. Start from an idea, a YouTube video, or your own script. I'll type an idea, how the pyramids of Giza were built, and press Generate.

You can follow every step as it happens: the voice-over, the drawings, the edit. You don't have to keep the page open.

And here it is. Watch it right on the page, with the YouTube title and description already written. Download it, or post it straight to your channel.

Want to change a scene? Open Edit scenes, pick it on the timeline, and type what to change. The new picture is drawn for you, and Update video puts it in, with the same narration and timing. Every new picture is kept, so you can always switch back.

Now the part that saves the most time: Auto-post. Connect your YouTube channel. You sign in with Google and pick your channel.

Then create a schedule: give it a name, a time, and the days it should post.

Add your template. It still needs a channel to post to, so pick one in the template, along with who can see the videos, and save it.

Line up a few ideas, or switch on AI picks, and it chooses a fresh topic whenever your list runs out. Each video is made ahead of time and posted at the time you set.

The Calendar shows every video that's coming up, and everything that's already been posted.

That's how you fully automate a faceless channel. Start at yourfacelessfactory.com.

Built for long-form

Made for long videos, up to 20-minute deep dives

Long videos are what YourFacelessFactory is built for. A 60-second Short can get by on a quick script. A 20-minute stickman video can't: it needs real research, a story that keeps building, and a stickman who still looks the same in scene 150. Shorts? It makes those too.

From a 4-minute explainer to a 20-minute deep dive, with Shorts on the side, it starts the same way: drop in a one-line idea or a YouTube link. It researches the topic, writes an original script, draws every scene for the line being spoken with your stickman and style, checks its own work, and delivers the finished video, or posts it for you.

And the chapters come with it: timestamps in the description, placed where each part really starts.

Art styles

Pick a look. Every scene is drawn in it.

Thirteen stickman styles, every one on every plan. Your characters look the same in all of them. Point at a style to see its frames, or pick one to play moments drawn in it, sped up.

Four levels, from a new picture about every two seconds to a calmer one every eight.

Voice

Pick the narrator's voice and hear a preview before you save, or turn narration off.

Captions

Optional animated captions in nine styles, with the font, size, colors, highlight, animation and position all yours.

Character

The stickman, one of 24 more characters, or one you make in the character chat. The same in every scene and every style.

Three steps. Then it runs itself.

Set up a template once, then run it on as many ideas and videos as you like.

01

Set your look once

Pick a stickman style and your main character: the stickman, one of ours, or one you make in the character chat. Add a voice, captions and a length, and save it as a template.

02

Drop in an idea

A one-line idea, a YouTube link to rework, or your own script. It researches and writes what you don't bring, then draws and checks every scene.

03

Fix any scene, then post

Watch the finished video on its page, change any scene's picture by typing what to change, then download it or let a schedule post it to YouTube.

Most AI video tools make slideshows. This makes videos.

Stock clips matched to keywords, a computer voice and auto-captions: that's what AI video usually looks like, and viewers notice. YourFacelessFactory makes stickman videos the way a small studio does instead.

Under the hood

What happens after you press Make a video

Four specialized AI tools work through eleven production stages, and every picture is checked by a different AI than the one that drew it.

Craft

The details behind every scene

Viewers can feel the difference between a stickman video someone planned and one that was simply generated. These are the things YourFacelessFactory plans in every video.

One narrator, start to finish

Your main character is drawn from the same reference in every scene. Pick the stickman or one of ours, or make your own in the character chat.

Characters that always look the same

Anyone who matters to the story gets a reference portrait before their first scene, and every later appearance is checked against it.

One style, strict rules

Each style has its own set of rules, applied to every single picture, and your characters look exactly the same in all of them: the style never changes them.

Words drawn into the picture

Names, labels, dates and numbers are drawn right into the picture in the art style, and every word is read back and checked.

Maps, diagrams and comparisons

Places get a map, the inside of things a labeled diagram, numbers a big number, and “wrong vs. right” a picture of its own.

Lists that build up

When the narrator lists things or names the parts of a diagram, they appear one at a time, in step with the voice.

A camera with intent

It glides slowly across a place, pushes in on the detail being named, and keeps every picture with words, numbers or a diagram perfectly still.

Shots like a film

Wide shots, full shots, waist-up shots and close-ups take turns, and a moment that goes on gets a new camera angle of the same place.

Captions on the beat

Optional animated captions that follow the voice word by word. Nine styles to start from, and every detail yours to adjust.

Quality control

Checked before it ships

Generating a picture is easy. Knowing it's the right picture is the hard part, so every video checks its own work.

Autopilot

Set it up once, then sit back and watch

Connect your YouTube channel, give a template a schedule and a list of ideas, and it makes and posts every video on its own.

Queue it up once. Check back to a channel that's already posting.

Questions we get asked

What is a stickman video?

A faceless explainer told with simple stick-figure characters: a narrator walks through a topic while every scene shows it as a drawing. It's a popular format on YouTube for history, science, psychology and "what if" topics. YourFacelessFactory makes the whole video for you: the research, the script, the voice, every drawing and the final edit.

How long can a video be?

Long videos are what it's built for: 4 to 20 minutes on every plan, and Shorts of 20 seconds to 3 minutes. Without a plan (pay as you go) videos can be up to 1 minute. Set the length in a template: the script is written for it, a long video gets more research, and the recorded voiceover is measured so the script is rewritten if it misses your target.

Can I use my own characters?

Yes. Pick the stickman or one of our 24 other characters, or make your own on the Characters page: describe who you want in the chat, or start from a picture of yours, and it's drawn for you, ready for any template. Your first 6 character pictures are free, then each one costs 80 tokens. Whoever you pick is drawn from the same reference in every scene, and looks the same in every art style.

Can I change a scene after the video is made?

Yes. Open a finished video and press Edit scenes. Pick a scene on the timeline, then type what to change in its picture, or have a brand-new picture of any kind made in its place - a comparison, a close-up, a map. An edit costs 100 tokens and a brand-new picture 150. When you're happy, Update video puts the new pictures in for free, keeping the narration, captions and music exactly as they were. A video's scenes can be edited for 30 days after it's made.

Is the content original?

Yes. Every script is written from scratch, from fresh research. When you rework a YouTube video, the topic carries over along with about half of its points in completely new words, the rest is newly researched, and every scene is illustrated from scratch for your video.

Where do the facts come from?

Live web search. Before writing, it researches the topic with up to 25 searches for a long video, fewer for a Short. Paste your own notes and it checks them against search and fills the gaps. It's thorough, but no AI is perfect, so skim important claims before you publish.

Will my characters look the same in every scene?

That's what it's built for. Your narrator is drawn from the same reference every time. Anyone important gets a saved reference portrait before their first scene, and a separate AI compares every later appearance with it.

Can these videos be monetized on YouTube?

YouTube decides monetization channel by channel, so no tool can promise it. What its "inauthentic content" rule targets isn't AI as such, but mass-produced, generic, repetitive videos that add nothing original. Every YourFacelessFactory video gets its own research, its own script and its own illustrations, which is the kind of originality that rule asks for. You're still responsible for what you publish.

Do I have to label these videos as AI on YouTube?

YouTube asks creators to disclose AI content that looks realistic, meaning something a viewer could mistake for a real person, place or event. Clearly unrealistic content, like animation, is exempt, and YouTube says disclosing doesn't affect monetization. A stickman video normally won't need the label, but the rules are YouTube's, so check its current guidance for your video.

Which AI does it use?

Several, each for what it does best. Anthropic's Claude researches, writes and plans. Google's Gemini draws the scenes, and a second Gemini AI checks them. ElevenLabs records the narration. The finished video is put together on our own servers. See who does what.

What if I run out of tokens? Can I get more?

Buy more anytime from the pricing page. Tokens pay for videos, character pictures and scene edits. A video only ever charges you for what it actually costs, and your balance never goes below zero, even if a video costs more than you have left.

Do you offer a free plan?

There's no free plan, but you don't need a plan to try it. Building a template and looking around is free, and without a plan you pay as you go: buy tokens and make videos up to 1 minute long, paying only for what each video uses. Plans start at $19.90 a month. See Pricing for exact numbers.

Can I pick the video format — Shorts, square, etc.?

Yes. Every template has its own video format (wide 16:9, tall 9:16, square 1:1 or portrait 4:5), and every scene is drawn for that shape. Thumbnails can match the video's format or use their own.

Can this post to YouTube automatically?

Yes. Connect your YouTube channel once from the Auto-post page, then set up a schedule and link it to whichever templates you want. When it's due, the video is made ahead of time and uploaded straight to your channel, no manual step in between. You choose whether each video goes up as public, unlisted or private. One thing to know: while YouTube reviews our app, YouTube may keep new uploads private for now, whatever you chose. If it does, the video's page says so.

Can I get a refund?

Tokens aren't refundable once they're in your account, but a video that fails on our end is never charged, and a video you cancel while it's still waiting to start costs nothing. Accidental double charges are refunded in full. See the full Refund Policy for details.

Are my payments secure?

Payments are processed by Stripe, an industry-standard payment processor. We never see or store your card details.
