How to make YouTube videos with AI?
Quick Answer
Use AI per stage: a script tool (ChatGPT), a video generator, an AI voiceover, and editing. For multi-minute videos, pick a scene-based tool — InVideo AI, LongStories.ai, or Synthesia. Verify your account for videos over 15 minutes.
The four stages you can hand to AI
Script first — ChatGPT can draft one from a topic. Then visuals: for several minutes, use a scene-based tool (InVideo AI, LongStories.ai, Synthesia), not a clip model like Veo or Sora that caps at seconds. Add narration (e.g., ElevenLabs) and music; many long-form platforms bundle both. Finish with a thumbnail, title, description, and captions. Verify your YouTube account before uploading over 15 minutes. Automate one step or the whole pipeline.
