Looking for 5 people to break something I built

I run a few faceless channels — PagesMissing, WonderQuark, and a daily AI news one. Like most of you I got tired of the pipeline: write, generate art, generate voice, cut it together, caption it, upload it. So I built a thing that does the whole run from a topic, and I've been using it on my own channels for months.

It works well enough that I want people who aren't me to try and break it.

I'm after 5 testers. Not a beta list, not a waitlist — 5 people I'll actually talk to.

What I'm looking for:

- You already run a faceless channel, or you're seriously starting one

- You'll actually make videos with it, not sign up and vanish

- You'll tell me when something is bad. That's the whole job. "This felt annoying" is a complete bug report

What you get:

- Two months free, enough for a video a day on one channel

- Every unfinished feature before anyone else, because that's what I need eyes on

- Direct line to me. You report something, you'll usually see it fixed that week

What I'm not offering: a lifetime free account. It's two months, then it's a normal paid product and you can decide if it's worth it. I'd rather say that up front than surprise you.

Fair warning on what it's not: it's built for making a lot of decent videos consistently, not one perfect one. If you're chasing a single cinematic masterpiece this isn't your tool.

DM me if you want in. Tell me what your channel is about and roughly how often you post. I'll come back to everyone either way.

Every few weeks someone posts that YouTube is banning AI or banning faceless channels. That's not what's happening. What's getting hit is content where nobody made a single decision anywhere in the process.

"Did AI touch this" is the wrong question. AI can touch every step, script, voice, visuals, editing, all of it. What matters is whether a person was actually driving. On your own channel that usually comes down to three things you can go check right now.

First, does it have an identity that carries over. Same character, same voice, same look on video 40 as on video 1, and specifically yours rather than the stock output of whatever tool made it.

Second, does anything change between uploads. If your last ten videos have the same structure, same pacing, same everything except the topic, that's the template pattern the policy language is pointing at.

Third, and this is the one most people skip, does anyone look at it before it goes out. If nothing ever gets cut or rewritten or thrown away, there was no point of view in it. There was a queue.

I've watched a few channels stall out and it was never because they used AI. It was because the answer to all three was no.

Anyway. I've been running channels on this logic for a while and the three checks above are what I actually use before anything goes out. Curious whether people here draw the line in the same place, especially on the third one.
