what is seedance 2.5?

an AI video model by ByteDance(Owner of TikTok). currently regarded as the strongest video model available. mainly due to vast training data available for them via TikTok

what it does better than other models

• 30 second clips. most models cap at 5 to 10 seconds
• 30 reference images. the best visual control right now, so the same character and style hold across shots
• native audio. speech, ambience and effects generated in the same pass, not added after
• first and last frame control. you decide how a shot opens and closes
• text to video and image to video
• 480p and 720p, in 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:4, 1:1 and 21:9

how to create a video with seedance 2.5

two ways.

1. via browser(mobile or desktop)

AITuber now supports seedance 2.5 in its AI video clips flow:

1. Login → Create → AI Clips
2. pick Seedance 2.5
3. write a prompt, or upload an image for image to video
4. add reference images if you want the same subject across shots
5. set duration, resolution and aspect ratio, then generate

2. from your AI agent

if you want to create with seedance via your ai agents or in claude, chatgpt etc.. the Seedance 2.5 MCP server connects it to claude, chatgpt, cursor or any MCP client.

describe the clip in chat, it generates, and it can even publish to your channels from there.

quick update, plus the reasoning behind it.

AITuber is an AI video generator built to make creating videos easier. faceless shorts, ugc ads, music videos, talking avatars. as of today it also auto-posts finished videos to six platforms: youtube, tiktok, instagram, facebook, threads and x. facebook, threads and x are the new ones.

why post to more platforms

the video is already made. cross-posting it to three more platforms costs nothing.

every platform has its own algorithm and its own audience. a clip that flops on tiktok can take off on facebook, and there's no way to know which in advance.

everyone posts to youtube, tiktok and reels. far fewer repost the same video to facebook, threads and x, so those feeds are much less crowded right now.

how to set it up

1. create your video in aituber.app
2. go to Publish and click Connect Account
3. pick your platforms and sign in
4. publish once, it goes to every account you connected
5. or turn on Autopilot to create and post automatically on a schedule

which platform should we add next?

Claude can't generate video on its own. It has no video model. But you can connect it to one, and then it handles the whole thing: script, voiceover, visuals, captions, and publishing.

AITuber is an AI video generator built for faceless and marketing videos. It also runs an MCP server, so Claude can create videos directly, without you opening another app.

That matters more than it sounds. Your ideas, research, and content plan are already sitting in the chat. Instead of copying them into another tool, the agent uses what is already in front of it and turns it into a finished video. Idea to video becomes one step instead of five.

Setup takes about 60 seconds. Nothing to install.

Setup

1. Open Settings → Connectors in Claude Desktop or on claude.ai

2. Click Add custom connector and paste this URL:

https://mcp.aituber.app

3. Click Connect and sign in.

That's it. It also shows up in Claude Code automatically, so there is no second setup.

For people preferring the terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http aituber https://mcp.aituber.app

It works the same way in ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Notion, OpenClaw and Hermes. Setup for those is in the first comment.

YouTube updated its monetization rules on July 13.

Short answer: yes, YouTube still monetizes AI videos, and faceless YouTube channels are still fine. But the new rules list, for the first time, exactly which AI channels get cut off.

YouTube already removed channels with 35M+ combined subs this year, so they mean it.

Here are the 5 things to keep in mind:

1. Using AI is officially fine.

The new monetization policy says it directly: AI tools are allowed as long as the final video shows real creative input from you. Nobody gets demonetized just for using AI.

2. Static slideshow channels are the #1 target.

Still images + robot voice + same template every video. That combo is what got most of the wiped channels. Note it is the pattern they flag, not images themselves. Images with motion, editing, and varied scenes read as creative input.

3. "Interchangeable" is the word to remember.

If your video could have come from any channel, you are at risk. If it could only come from yours (your script, your angle, your niche), you are safe. That is the whole test. This is also why "YouTube automation" channels that mass-produce clones are the ones getting hit, not AI creators.

4. AI personas on sensitive topics are an instant strike.

AI "doctors" giving health tips, AI "lawyers", AI finance gurus. Brand new category, zero tolerance.

5. Fake emotional content is done.

Sad rescue stories that never happened, shock bait, manufactured drama. YouTube calls these "emotionally manipulative formulas" and they are now named in the rules.

The short version of what to do: rewrite your scripts with your own angle, put motion and editing into your visuals, and stop batching clones from one template. One good channel beats ten lazy ones under the 2026 rules.

Links in comments (official policy + full guide).

I am also working out which faceless niches got riskier vs safer under these rules, with RPM data. Will post it if people want it, say so in the comments.

this one's actually verified. Fortune profiled the creator (Adavia Davis) in late 2025 and reviewed his real adsense records, so it's not a "trust me bro" number.

his faceless AI documentary network (boring-history sleep-doc style, channels around 400k to 1M+ subs) pulls in roughly $40,000 to $60,000 a month. costs sit around $6,500/mo, so 85-89% margins. and the videos cost as little as $60 each to make.

the wild part is the format is intentionally boring. long, calm, slow narration over history topics, made to be put on while you fall asleep. no fast cuts, no crazy hooks. people just leave these running all night.

why boring wins

• watch time is insane. a 2-3 hour sleep doc running all night racks up watch hours no shorts channel can touch, and the algorithm eats it up
• history and education RPM is high, and older audiences watch longer
• basically zero competition. everyone's chasing fast dopamine, calm long-form AI documentaries are wide open
• evergreen. a roman empire sleep doc gets watched the same in 2028 as today

the production (where the $60 comes from)

no camera, no editor, no studio. it's a pipeline:

• script written with AI, long, calm, factual
• AI narration, deep steady voice, nothing dramatic
• ai-generated or slow ken-burns visuals matched to the narration
• soft ambient music underneath
• render, upload, repeat

one person runs multiple channels because each video is basically a script plus a render.

how to make faceless AI documentary videos

the barrier used to be stitching 4 tools together. now it's one flow. with aituber.app:

1. pick faceless / long-form mode
2. paste your script (or an outline and let it write) on a history topic, calm and factual
3. pick a deep steady narrator voice, keep it the same across the channel
4. pick slow cinematic visuals or ken-burns ai images
5. it layers the background music and captions
6. generate up to 20 min, publish or download in 4k

for the full 2-3 hour length, run longer scripts or stitch a few together. want it hands off? autopilot mode creates and posts on a schedule.

the takeaway

the lesson isn't "make boring videos." it's that the least glamorous niches are usually the least competitive and the most profitable. sleep content, ambient history, calm AI documentaries, nobody's fighting over it and the watch time prints.

$60 in, $40-60k out, verified by an actual journalist. don't sleep on the boring niches (pun intended).

what boring niche do you think would actually work? :)

This is a glimpse of upcoming 'Studio' feature in AITuber and also works as an editor for already created faceless videos.

Maybe consider it like an AI + CapCut :)

Transitions built in, create images/videos with any models and use it in the video, add text & music as needed

Create Anything with AI

Hello there,

"how does Zack D Films make his videos?" is one of the most-asked questions in faceless content, and most answers online are guesses. here's the real breakdown, and why AI changed who can make this style.

How Zack D Films actually makes his videos

it's 3D animation made in Blender. cinematic camera angles, realistic lighting, one dark or curious fact per short ("what happens if you fall into a black hole"), a calm ominous narrator, and low tension music. one idea, one payoff.

the format is simple. the production isn't. Blender takes months to learn and hours per short, which is why most people who try to copy it quit in week one. (Zack reportedly works with animators to keep the daily pace.)

Why AI made this style accessible

you no longer need Blender for a similar cinematic 3D look. AI video tools now generate visuals in that style from a prompt, so the barrier moves from "can you animate" to "can you write a good script." much lower bar.

honest caveat: AI won't perfectly match his hand-crafted quality. but it gets ~80% of the look at ~5% of the effort, enough to start and test the format.

How to make Zack D Films style videos with AI (step by step)

1. go to aituber.app and pick the Faceless Videos template

2. enter your script, one dark or curious fact. hook in the first 2 seconds, build tension, one clean payoff (ChatGPT or Claude can draft it, you sharpen the hook)

3. pick the 3D visual style so it renders in that 3D Zack-D look, with camera motion (slow push-in, dramatic low angle) per scene

4. choose a deep, calm, slightly ominous narrator voice, and keep the same one across videos to build channel identity

5. background tension music and word-by-word captions get added automatically

6. generate, review, then publish direct or download in 4K

that's the whole loop. the part that used to need Blender plus an animator is now a script and a few settings.

Which niches this format works for

body science, space, history, nature, psychology, ocean/deep-sea, human anatomy, "what happens if" scenarios. anything with a dark or surprising single-fact hook.

The honest takeaway

this format works because of the writing, not the animation. a perfectly animated short with a boring fact dies; a rough-looking short with a "wait, WHAT" fact goes viral. AI removes the animation barrier, but the curiosity hook is still 100% on you.

if Blender is what stopped you before, this is the moment to try the format. pick a niche, nail the hook, stay consistent.

anyone here already making this style? what's working for you? :)
