Can I make money on the side with this?
Possible, but not guaranteed. The skill takes production off your hands. Whether a channel makes money depends on topic, persistence, reach and the platforms' rules. For ad revenue, YouTube for example requires at least 1,000 subscribers and 10 million Shorts views in 90 days or 4,000 watch hours in 12 months; for new channels from 1 February 2027 it becomes 20 million views or 8,000 hours. Fan features like Supers are available from 500 subscribers. We don't promise any income.
Does YouTube also pay for videos made with AI?
In the Partner Program, YouTube only pays for original content, not mass-produced repetitive videos. The skill builds every video from scratch: its own research with sources, its own script, its own 3D animation. Whether a channel gets into the Partner Program is up to YouTube.
Do I have to show my face or speak myself?
No. The videos are faceless: 3D animation, a voice from ElevenLabs, subtitles and music. You're not on screen and don't record anything yourself.
How much time do I need per video?
Depending on the video, the AI agent works on its own for about 30 to 60 minutes. Your time: enter a topic, watch the finished video, say what to change in one sentence and upload it.
What is Claude Code?
Claude Code is Anthropic's AI assistant for your computer. You tell it in plain sentences what you want, and it works through the skill. You need a paid Claude subscription for it. The skill runs on your Mac.
Do I need programming skills?
No. You write completely normal sentences in Claude Code, for example “Make a video: Why is the sky blue?”. Claude handles installing, rendering and fixing by itself, and the self-test sets everything up on first launch. You only open the Terminal to start Claude; the guide shows you how.
What does a video cost me to run?
The skill itself costs only once. For a video of just over a minute you need about 1,300 characters of voice and one music track at ElevenLabs; what that costs depends on your ElevenLabs plan. Claude runs on your Claude subscription. For us, a video on 26 Oct 2026 averaged about 0.80 €: Claude subscription share 0.47 € (200 € a month, spread over our pace at the time of about 14 videos a day), voice about 0.12 €, music about 0.24 € (estimated at about 0.20 dollars per 1,000 ElevenLabs credits). With fewer videos a month, the subscription share per video is higher. The Sound-Skill only needs the Claude subscription.
What do I need and what costs extra?
A Mac (Windows and Linux are not tested yet) and a paid Claude subscription with Claude Code. For the Video-Skill, also an ElevenLabs account for voice and music. You pay these costs directly to the provider. The self-test sets up Node, Python and ffmpeg for you.
What's the difference between the Sound-Skill and the Video-Skill?
The Sound-Skill adds sound effects to videos you already have. The Video-Skill builds the whole video from a topic, with research, voice, animation and music, and the Sound-Skill is included.
Are the videos really in German?
Yes. Script, voice and subtitles are built for German. Numbers are written out in the script so the voice pronounces them correctly, and the subtitles run word by word with the voice.
Is every video perfect right away?
No. The skill checks length, loudness and margins by itself beforehand, but you watch every video before it goes out. Whatever you don't like, you have rebuilt with one sentence.
Can I use the videos commercially?
Yes, your videos belong to you. You may use the included sound effects freely in your videos: twelve signature sounds from our channels and public-domain sounds (CC0). The Video-Skill renders with Remotion: that's free for individuals and companies with up to three employees; companies with four or more employees need their own company license from Remotion. You may not pass on or sell the skills and the sound files themselves.
What happens after the purchase?
You land directly on your download page and get the invoice by email. Unzip, open the folder in Claude Code, start the self-test. Because the download starts immediately, you waive your right of withdrawal before paying.
