No income, commission rate, or time to results is promised or guaranteed here. Results vary widely, and many people earn little or nothing from these methods, especially at first.
Introduction
Every week, new AI tools are launched. This post looks at seven ideas people try for making money online with AI tools. None of them is proven to work for everyone, and results depend on skill, effort, timing, competition, and platform rules, which change over time.
Idea 1: Promote Digital Products on Whop
Whop is a platform where people sell courses, communities, and digital products in categories such as learning skills, getting healthy, and going viral. Products may be one-time sales or recurring subscriptions.
Some products on the platform have affiliate programs. Commission rates and terms vary by product, so check the current terms for any product before promoting it.
To promote these products, some people use AI tools to draft articles that they publish to drive traffic and earn affiliate commissions. AI drafts should be checked for accuracy and originality, and affiliate links must be disclosed where required.
Idea 2: Create and Sell Bird Flower Designs
You can use AI tools to create designs, such as bird and flower designs, and sell them as digital products on platforms like Etsy. Some sellers offer designs tied to specific months or seasons.
Designs can be generated with AI tools and customized with tools like Canva. Sales are not guaranteed, and income from selling designs is rarely passive at first: listings need to be created, marketed, and maintained.
Idea 3: Start a Faceless YouTube Channel
Some creators run faceless YouTube channels with AI-generated scripts, voiceovers, and visuals. Reported ad earnings from other channels are not proof of what a new channel will earn, and ad revenue varies widely by niche, audience, and views.
AI tools can help with parts of the process, from channel names to scripts, voiceovers, and visuals. Monetization through the YouTube Partner Program is only possible if a channel meets YouTube’s current eligibility rules, and AI-generated content must follow YouTube’s rules.
Idea 4: Promote Products on Teu
Teu is a shopping platform that competes with Amazon and has an affiliate program. Its rewards and terms vary and change over time, so check the platform’s current affiliate terms rather than relying on older examples.
AI tools can be used to draft blog posts promoting products, but claims in those posts must be accurate, and affiliate links must be disclosed where required.
Idea 5: Sell Local Business Services via Fiverr Affiliates
Another idea is to use Fiverr’s affiliate program to promote freelance services. Some people find local businesses with lower ratings and send them emails offering to help improve their local SEO.
AI tools can help draft sales emails, and Fiverr affiliate links can be added for services that help businesses rank better on Google. Cold emails should follow spam rules and the platform’s terms, and results are not guaranteed.
Idea 6: Create and Sell Ebooks
AI can be used to create ebooks to sell on platforms like Amazon and Google’s Partner Center for Books. Revenue shares vary by platform, format, and price, so check the current terms before publishing.
Ebook content generated with AI prompts should be checked for accuracy and originality, and trending books can be used for topic inspiration. Publishing an ebook does not guarantee sales or income.
Idea 7: Start a Faceless Shorts Channel
You can create a faceless YouTube Shorts channel in any niche. AI tools can help generate scripts, voiceovers, animations, and music for shorts, which can then be uploaded to YouTube to grow a channel. Growth and monetization are not guaranteed and depend on content quality, audience, and platform rules.
Conclusion
These seven ideas are ways people try to use AI tools to make money online, from promoting products to creating content and automating parts of the process. Treat any earning example you see online with caution: results vary, and no method here promises a particular income.
