Hello, I have a question about monetizing a Youtube channel that uses Text-to-speech.
1. Can this channel be monetized?
2. What possible problems can arise with this channel?
3. How can these problems be avoided?

I would be grateful for the help!
 
Hard to tell dude some say yes and others say no i saw some channels get demonitized in the other hand some new channels are monetized you can try to start a channel as a side project maybe the text to speech quality plays a role maybe not you can search on the forum this qs been asking many times
 
You will get demonetized, if you can create good content better hire a cheap voice to read the text. Or you can monetize with affiliate links.
 
Content created via text to speech conversion is not a problem at all. Being a creator it is your freedom to choose the way you want to create video content.

Whether your channel be monetized or not depends upon few important factors, like the niche of your content. Is your text to speech content is adult or explicit content? Is it about gambling or about banned topics? Then you can not monetize it.

But if your content doesn't fall into these categories, then there should not be any problem with the monetization.

However the major threat you face is from the AI voiceover itself. Automated voice overs lack the human-like feelings and voice modulations. In many cases the AI voice can not speak the sentences with ecstasy, joy, excitement, sorrow, emphasis, etc. like humans do. So it becomes very bland and boring. Your audience may not like to follow your content and they may leave your videos soon or give you thumbs down or leave a negative comment. This may result in negative impact on your videos organic standings and rankings. You may get lesser views if your content is not popular. Eventually it will take you a very very long to reach the monetization threshold.
 
For those who are also curious about Text-to-speech monetization, I was able to contact an official YouTube representative. It was explained to me that channels that use this kind of video dubbing are divided into two types - some do not get monetization, and the others receive and successfully profit from the channel. The only difference between them is that some channels take content from YouTube or other sites and don't change it, they just make videos, and the other channels have unique content and create value in their videos, that's why they get monetization.

In a nutshell, it's not about text-to-speech, it's about the content itself, which they take as the basis for the video.
 
i also want to know answer of this
You can safely use text-to-speech if the channel is dismantled - the problem is not in the voiceover.
More often than not, it's "Repeated Content".
The situation is similar to channels that make selections.
For there to be monetization, you need:
1. Uniqueize the text (if you take some articles).
2. Uniqueize the video sequences.
3. Don't make the video as if it were autogenerated content.
 
I even appealed monetization with a video that I used voiceover and I got approved
 
That will depend on your actual video content. If they're just text slides or simple images then you'd probably not get monetized. With OG content, I don't see any problems with text-to-speech voiceover. Moreover many softwares can give you human like voiceovers now. I've seen a bunch of such apps on appsumo.

Yeap, it's true, a lot of services have appeared especially recently, although I think they all use about 1-2 of the same technology, because the voicing of many services is the same, just a subscription to the service is different in price.
 
Very less chance to get approved. There is manual review if the best video and they will find out about this obviously.

I don't know, I see more and more channels, in a certain niche, getting monetized and it successfully stays on their channel. It could be that their videos are monetized, but we won't know that.
Or we'll find out when I get the right numbers to apply to monetize my channel myself.
