Can AI videos be monetized on YouTube?
Yes, AI-made videos can earn money on YouTube. YouTube does not ban AI content. What matters is that your channel meets YouTube's own entry rules and that your videos add real value. AITuber cannot promise views or income; that part is up to YouTube and your audience.
What does YouTube require before I can earn?
These are YouTube's rules for the YouTube Partner Program, not ours. To earn ad revenue, YouTube asks for:
- 1,000 subscribers, and
- 4,000 public watch hours in the last 12 months, or 10 million public Shorts views in the last 90 days.
YouTube also reviews your channel for original content. Videos that repeat the same thing with little change, or reuse other people's work without adding value, can be rejected. Unique scripts, your own angle, and consistent posting help. YouTube's rules can change; check YouTube's official help pages for the current numbers.
Can I make long videos with AITuber?
Yes. AITuber makes videos up to 20 minutes long. Long-form videos are how you build watch hours, since Shorts views count toward a separate track. You can make both from the same dashboard: vertical Shorts for reach, and 16:9 long-form for watch time.
Will my AI videos get views?
We cannot promise that. Views depend on YouTube's algorithm, your niche, your titles and thumbnails, and how well viewers respond. What helps: How to set up Autopilot keeps the schedule steady for you.
Do I have to say the video is made with AI?
YouTube asks creators to disclose realistic AI content that could mislead viewers, for example a realistic scene that never happened. Typical narrated videos with AI images and captions are not usually in that category, but the choice to disclose is yours and the rules are YouTube's. When you publish to TikTok from AITuber, there is a Label as AI-generated switch for the same purpose there.
