5 fresh AI-driven account/format ideas trending right now across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest & Facebook that are actually making money 👇
1. Faceless YouTube “cash-cow” channels using AI visuals & narrations
What makes it trending:
🖤 More creators are launching “faceless” channels where they never appear on camera. All voice-overs, animated or image-based content, often AI-generated.
đź–¤ These are appealing because production costs (camera, lighting, etc.) drop, and algorithm-friendly formats (listicles, stories, explainers) scale.
đź–¤ Monetizasion becomes possible via ad revenue + affiliate links + digital products once you hit traction.
Tools or skills needed:
✍️ Script writing (you can use an AI like ChatGPT or similar to draft video scripts)
✍️ AI voice-over tools (text-to-speech) or voice recording
✍️ Visuals/images/videos (AI image generators, stock footage)
✍️ Basic video editing (put together visuals + voice + music)
✍️ Youtube channel setup, keyword/social algorithm understanding
Is it realistic for beginners with no money/experience?
Yes with caveats. Beginners can start because you don’t need fancy gear. But you do need time, consistency, willingness to learn. The key: pick a niche with demand, post regularly. Many beginners try and fail because they skip the planning or niche research. So: Beginner-friendly = mostly yes, though you’ll need grit and smart strategy (not just “upload random videos”).
2. “Faceless Instagram/Pinterest/TikTok” niche pages using AI-generated posts & carousels
What makes it trending:
🖤 The concept of faceless accounts (you don’t show your face; you rely on text overlays, AI visuals, niche-oriented content) is booming. On IG, for example: “Faceless Instagram Account Ideas to Go Viral” is a featured topic.
đź–¤ AI tools make it quick to produce visuals, quotes, aesthetics + posting. Less barrier to entry.
đź–¤ Because of that, pages in niches (motivation, productivity, weird facts, animals, etc.) scale with lower cost.
Tools or skills needed:
✍️ A niche you’re comfortable with (e.g., productivity hacks, digital marketing tips, pet-lover content – which might fit you well!)
✍️ AI visual generation / design templates (can use free/cheap tools)
✍️ Writing captions/hooks
✍️ Posting & scheduling strategy (Instagram/Pinterest algorithm understanding)
✍️ Monetisation strategy: affiliate links, digital products, cross-promote to list or course, maybe print-on-demand
Is it realistic for beginners with no money/experience?
Yes, quite realistic. Because the barrier is low: you don’t need to show up on camera; you can start small. The challenge: building an engaged audience, and figuring out how to monetise (followers ≠income automatically).
3. Virtual influencer / AI-persona accounts (Instagram/Facebook)
What makes it trending:
đź–¤ Virtual influencers (AI-created characters) are getting brand deals and monetisation. Example: Aitana LĂłpez is an AI model/influencer earning thousands/month.
🖤 Brands like the novelty + control (no human drama, schedule-friendly) … so it’s being positioned as “future of influencer marketing”.
đź–¤ Social platforms are increasingly tolerant and even excited by AI-driven personas.
Tools or skills needed:
✍️ Creating a character/persona (branding, story)
✍️ Visuals/animations (AI image/video generation)
✍️ Social media posting & story-telling skills
✍️ Branding/marketing: audience building, community engagement
✍️ Monetisation: collaborations, affiliate, merchandise, digital products
Is it realistic for beginners with no money/experience?
More challenging than the first two. Because you’re building a “brand” from scratch: persona + story + audience trust. It may take more time and strategic work. But in the right niche and if you lean into your marketing consultancy + education background, you could position the persona as “digital business mentor” or something aligned. So yes, still possible but not super easy out of the gate.
4. Short-form AI-generated video series for TikTok/YouTube Shorts (AI slop & high-volume)
What makes it trending:
🖤 The phenomenon of “AI-slop”. Low-effort, high-volume AI-generated videos is growing. Some creators are churning out massive volume and making money.
đź–¤ Short-form content (TikTok, YouTube Shorts) is algorithm-friendly and less costly per piece of content.
đź–¤ AI tooling (text-to-video, image-to-video) is making volume more accessible.
Tools or skills needed:
✍️ Access to AI video generation (or at least stock + text-to-video)
✍️ Scripting hooks, storyboarding short clips
✍️ Editing for short-form format, trending sound usage
✍️ Understanding short-form algorithm and niche
✍️ Monetisation: ads (if platform allows), affiliate links, digital product promotions
Is it realistic for beginners with no money/experience?
Somewhat realistic but caution: while barrier is lower, competition + platform monetisation rules are tightening (especially around AI-only content). You must add value/human touch. So yes you can, but you’ll need to learn quickly and commit to output.
5. Content-teaching/consulting accounts: “How to use AI to build your side-hustle” on Instagram/LinkedIn/Facebook
What makes it trending:
🖤 Because AI tools are now more accessible, there’s a hunger for “teach me how to use them to earn” content. Platforms are full of creators teaching side-hustles with AI.
🖤 Audience want both “tool” + “how to make money” not just fun content.
Tools or skills needed:
✍️ Strong content creation
✍️ Knowing/selecting relevant AI tools and demonstrating them (you don’t have to build new tools)
✍️ Platform posting (Instagram/Facebook/LinkedIn) and maybe short-form video demonstrations
✍️ Monetisation: courses, digital products, coaching, affiliate of the tools
Is it realistic for beginners with no money/experience?
Yes very realistic. Even if someone has zero experience, if they document their “learning journey” with AI tools + monetisation it can resonate. You can start low-cost, with phone + screen-recording the tools, building your audience and funneling into your courses or digital product offerings.
