Build an AI Streamer That's Live 24/7
It talks to chat, never sleeps, and earns while you do
You're not the streamer. You build the streamer — and it never sleeps.

What this walkthrough gets you
You will build an AI character that lives on a 24/7 stream, talks to its audience in real time, remembers its regulars and earns through subscriptions, tips and ads, even when your computer is off. You direct Claude to build each piece, so you write nothing from scratch, and you can start at almost zero with free tools. It takes about 8 to 12 hours a week for two to four weeks. You design the character tonight, and the walkthrough has it publicly live by around week four.
