Earning and time figures are our broad estimates, not guarantees — actual results depend on your area, your effort and demand.

Why it's left-field

Your words carry entire channels that never show a face — and the owners pay per script.

How it works

  1. 1Pick two or three niches and study their best-performing videos.
  2. 2Write hook-first scripts with a retention beat every thirty seconds or so.
  3. 3Deliver in the channel's template and take on regular batch orders.
