How to Make an AI Version of Yourself (Step-by-Step, 2026)
Updated June 11, 2026
Creators get the same questions hundreds of times and can only reply to a fraction of their audience. An AI version of yourself answers fans in your voice 24/7 — and earns while you sleep. Here’s how to build one.
Step 1 — Gather your content
Your AI persona is only as good as what it learns from. Collect your richest content: your YouTube channel, blog or website, long-form posts, and any PDFs (e.g. a book or guide). This is the material the persona is trained on so it sounds like you.
Step 2 — Create the persona
- Sign up as a creator on Staraze.
- Paste your YouTube channel, website and social links, or upload a PDF.
- Staraze ingests transcripts and text and trains your persona in minutes.
- Set the personality, tone and any guidelines so it stays on-brand.
Step 3 — Set pricing and publish
Choose subscription plans (you set the price), publish your persona page, and share the link with your audience. Fans subscribe and chat instantly.
Step 4 — Share and earn
Every conversation runs without you online. Post your persona link in your bio, videos and newsletters. See how creators monetize an AI chatbot for revenue tips, or start now on the creator page.
