What It Is
Create authentic-feeling, user-generated-style content for brands using AI tools to speed up production, then get paid per piece or on performance.
The Pitch
Brands increasingly want content that feels like a real customer made it, not a polished ad, and AI tools can speed up producing that at volume.
Who It’s Best For
Someone comfortable being on camera or producing personality-driven content, since authenticity is the entire value proposition here.
The Truth (as we see it)
Gadzhi notes this genuinely lives or dies on how authentic the content feels, if it reads as generic or AI-generated, it loses its whole purpose. That's a real skill, not just a tool you can turn on.
