Faceless Youtube channel

We are planning to start a YouTube channel with the goal of monetization. Niche is science and tech or current tech topics or issues. We are considering two options:

1. Human voice with animations: More natural, but it could slow down video production.
2. AI voice(ElevenLabs) with animations: Faster production, allowing us to publish around one video every day.

Which option would be better for YouTube monetization? Does YouTube treat AI voiceovers differently from human narration when reviewing channels for monetization?

We want to maintain good quality while publishing videos regularly. Any advice or experience would be appreciated.

YouTube does not treats the AI voice channels differently but i would suggest for better audience engagement so that they keep watching your videos with interest you should go with human voice over with animatons. This can not only help you get the subscribers but people will engage more as compared to the channel with AI voice over.
 
1. Use elevenlabs to save time, youtube doesnt reject a channel just coz it has an ai voiceover.
2. The main thing is making sure the scripts, animations and editing are original, not just mass producing the same type of videos daily.
3. Maybe start with 3 to 4 quality videos a week and see how the audience responds, then increase the upload rate if it works.
 
I monetized three YouTube Shorts channels this year in the sports niche, all featuring AI voice-overs generated with ElevenLabs. I didn't face any issues with YouTube during the monetization process.
 
I think both options can work for monetization. I would choose the format that allows you to produce consistent, engaging videos without sacrificing quality. AI voice can save time, but the script and animations should still feel original and well-made.
