The faceless YouTube channel is no longer a fringe strategy. Entire categories of the platform, true crime recaps, history explainers, motivational compilations, top ten lists, Reddit story narrations, run on channels where nobody has ever appeared on camera, and in many cases nobody involved has recorded their own voice either.

HeyGen and D-ID both turn text into talking-avatar video, and both get filed under the same category, but they sit at genuinely opposite ends of the market.
