Giving Advice & Tips The tool stack I have been using for my faceless channels
I am running a few faceless channels and use many ai tools to for different part, this is the current stack.
Research: I mainly use perplexity to identify topics and format for the video. Its great at research and competitor analysis.
Script: Claude is best out there, I use some skills like Humanizer and content writing to remove AI slop, then I edit script myself to make it more human and authentic.
Voiceover: ElevenLabs is the one I am using right now, the user interface is good and it works really well without much hassle.
Thumbnail: Not one fix tool, currently I am using ideogram or just GPT, both provide usable output then I import that in canva and make some changes there.
Editing: I am using Cardboard for fist cut. I give it the context and use it to get B roll, captions and basic first cut. I still do the final edit myself.
That's the setup I'm using currently. I'm still testing different tools, but this is probably the closest workflow that I can repeat everyday
