Faceless YouTube Niche Scout
Run Noah Morris's incognito plus keyword plus subscribers-to-views method to surface faceless YouTube niches with a first-mover gap.
Before & after
Same prompt, same agent — the only difference is the skill.
There are lots of faceless YouTube channels out there in different niches. You could look at trending topics and see if there are any channels making videos about them. You'd want to find niches where not many people are making content yet, so you have a chance to stand out. Sports, crime, and celebrity content tend to do well. You could search for keywords related to those topics and see what comes up. Look at how many subscribers successful channels have and how many views their videos get. If you find a niche where a few small channels are getting lots of views, that might be a good opportunity.
