# Run a faceless channel without ever filming

> Run a faceless YouTube or Shorts channel without a camera. Paste a script or Reddit thread and Nova generates the AI voiceover, gameplay background, and captions — a finished faceless video, and it auto-clips creators you follow so the channel never runs dry.

A faceless channel only works if you can feed it. Nova is the production line: paste a script or a Reddit thread and it generates the AI voiceover, the looping gameplay, and the captions into a finished vertical video — no camera, no mic, no editor. Point it at a creator you follow and it even auto-clips their new uploads into your library, so the content pipeline runs itself.

## What you get

### Videos from text, not footage

Most tools need a long recording to cut. Nova's faceless mode starts from pure text or a Reddit post — the AI voice and gameplay background are generated for you — so a channel with nothing to upload still ships daily.

### A pipeline that refills itself

Watch a creator and Nova auto-clips every new upload into your library and emails you when fresh clips land — so the faceless channel has a steady supply of source material without you hunting for it.

### Finished, not raw

Every faceless render comes out reframed to 9:16 with kinetic word-by-word captions over looping gameplay — ready to post to YouTube Shorts, TikTok, and Reels, not a rough export you still have to assemble.

## FAQ

### Can I run a YouTube channel without showing my face?

Yes — that's what Nova's faceless mode is for. You supply words (typed or from a Reddit thread) and Nova generates the AI voiceover, looping gameplay background, and captions into a finished vertical video. No camera, mic, or editor required.

### How do I keep a faceless channel supplied with content?

Two ways: generate faceless videos from scripts or Reddit threads on demand, and use Nova's watch-a-creator feature to auto-clip a source channel's new uploads into your library automatically — so you always have material to post.

### Is faceless generation free?

Your first faceless short is free — no card. Nova gives every new account one full faceless render so you can judge the voice, the captions and the finished video before paying for anything. After that, any paid plan — from $15/month — makes them unlimited. (Regular AI clipping has its own free tier: 30 minutes a month.)
