Netflix might sue me for this...
Claude can now run your YouTube channel for you.
Every morning it scans your channel, picks the best idea and makes a Netflix level documentary for $2.
Live now inside Frontier 6
called with @samgrows a few days before this launch
in the middle of the call i realized it wasn't chrome, it was the algrow desktop app
you can create "spaces" inside the app and train each one as a youtube homepage, so it only shows you one specific niche
and that's just one of the things you can do in the algrow desktop app
really cool
Introducing Algrow Desktop, a new way to research YouTube.
Out today on Mac and Windows, free with every plan.
And you can now try it for $1.
Unlike the MCP, the agent isn't stuck inside Algrow's data. It browses YouTube itself, live. It opens a real tab, searches, scrolls the feed, clicks into channels, and you can watch it live.
Each agent works in its own space with its own YouTube account, so each one learns a different corner of YouTube. One for your main channel, one for a format you want to try, one for a topic you're curious about. Run as many as you want and they never mix. The MCP can't see your feed. This can.
It still has everything the MCP has. Every Algrow search, every channel, every title format but with higher limits.
And every video it finds on YouTube comes with Algrow's data: how fast it grew, similar subjects, similar formats, which channels are like it, why it did better than the channel's usual.
No setup. If Claude is on your machine, it's already connected. It runs on your own Claude plan, so there's no extra AI bill.
this channel started posting 17 days ago
almost every video is about a forgotten machine part. bearings, line shafts
the babbitt bearings one went up on day 3
paste it into frontier → copy a style. it copies the look and the edit, you make your own videos in it
copy a style is inside frontier. paste any channel that works and generate videos in that style for 2 dollars a video:

the channel is never the asset
the system is
copycats of big faceless channels copy the name and the look and never break even
copy a system, not a channel

3D documentaries used to need a blender team
frontier makes them from a title on a claude subscription
you can even copy any 3D style that you see on YouTube
how i'd turn an AI avatar channel into recurring revenue:
> channel builds the audience (cooking, gardening, whatever the niche is)
> the offer isn't a pdf, it's a monthly subscription
> subscribers get a chat app or website with the channel's persona
> they ask for recipes, send their dishes for feedback, get help with anything in the niche
> it replies like a real conversation (small AI disclaimer)
API costs are really low, so the margin is huge
and it makes more sense than a one-time ebook, because people keep coming back to the thing that keeps helping them
the avatar channels already have the trust. this just gives that trust something to subscribe to
could run through whatsapp, imessage, messenger, wherever they already are
what do you think?
step 1 is the videos. i make AI avatar videos like this with frontier, from about $0.45 per minute:

the faceless youtube money ladder:
> adsense
> a $17 to $47 digital product under every video
> upsells
the video is the lead magnet. the product is the business

you can set frontier to make a new video every morning
it looks at what's working on your channel, picks the next title, makes the whole video and puts it on your upload desk
you just upload it

not every niche can sell an ebook
news audiences watch and leave
how-to audiences buy: recipes, golf swings, fixing stuff
pick the niche for the product, not just the views

why AI avatars sell ebooks better than faceless channels:
people want advice from a person
even when it says AI on the screen
a 70 year old trusts a grandma explaining a recipe more than a voiceover on stock footage

paste a youtube link into frontier
it studies the edit and builds that look as your own style
your next video comes out looking like that, without copying their name, voice or face

weird thing about AI avatar channels
operators keep saying they hit 1,000 subs before 4,000 watch hours
normal faceless channels are the other way round
people subscribe to a person, even an AI one
i post stuff like this in my free telegram before X:
