We design, build, and scale specialized YouTube channels powered by AI voice and end-to-end content automation. Our flagship vertical already reaches 30K+ subscribers — now we're scaling the studio.
LucaStudio is a Seoul-based media company building a portfolio of AI-narrated YouTube channels for the Korean market. Each channel runs on an automated pipeline — research, scripting, voice synthesis, video assembly, subtitling, and publishing — operated by a single founder.
We believe the next wave of niche media won't be larger teams. It will be lean, AI-native studios that launch and operate dozens of focused channels with the footprint of one. Voice — natural, distinct, channel-specific — is the layer that makes this real.
Each vertical launches as a long-term media brand with its own voice identity, audience, and editorial focus — never a one-off campaign.
Accessible Korean economic content
Plain-language Korean economic explainers — interest rates, pensions, inflation — narrated for viewers aged 55+. Our flagship vertical and the proof of the studio model.
Long-form film analysis, condensed
Two-hour films condensed into watchable 25-minute narrated reviews. Our second vertical and the testbed for the long-form film-to-review automation pipeline.

Once the production pipeline stabilizes on two verticals, we launch one new vertical per quarter — each with its own distinct voice identity.
Education + automation service
Long term, our internal pipeline becomes a curriculum and a tooling service — letting trained Korean creators operate their own AI-automated channels on the LucaStudio stack.
Every step from topic discovery to final publish runs on best-in-class AI models, orchestrated as a single pipeline. Gemini powers the content backbone — research, scripting, fact-checking, and image generation — while specialized providers handle voice synthesis and video assembly.
Daily topic discovery from trusted Korean and global sources. Gemini's long-context reasoning identifies what each vertical's audience actually cares about, surfaces fresh angles, and pulls supporting sources in one pass.
Each script written for the specific vertical's audience — accessible and warm for senior content, narrative and engaging for film commentary. Tuned for natural Korean spoken delivery and the pacing the voice layer will follow.
Every economic claim, statistic, and source verified via Gemini's grounded web search before the script moves to production. Critical for senior-trust content where a single error breaks the audience relationship.
To stay clear of YouTube's mass-production content policies, every vertical needs its own distinct, human-sounding identity. We combine best-in-class Korean TTS providers with vertical-specific voice profiles, pacing tuned for the target audience, and frame-accurate sync with video.
Every thumbnail, in-video illustration, and channel-branding visual generated programmatically per episode. Gemini's multimodal image generation handles Korean text rendering and keeps a consistent visual identity across each vertical's library.
Visuals, captions, motion, voice, and edits stitched programmatically into the final episode. Retention, watch-through, and audience signal feed back into the pipeline — each vertical run as a measurable, iterating product.
Subscribers on our flagship Korean-economy vertical — built end-to-end on an AI-native content pipeline. The studio model is proven.
Two live verticals today. Roadmap: one new vertical per quarter, then a creator-facing platform on top of the same pipeline.
Of our production runs on AI voice. Studio scale is gated almost entirely by how natural, distinct, and pipeline-friendly our TTS layer can be.
Solo founder operating LucaStudio as a single-person, AI-native media company. Built and validated the studio's first vertical — an AI-narrated Korean economic-content channel for senior audiences — proving that a fully automated content pipeline can produce a channel viewers come back to. Now expanding the same pipeline into long-form film commentary and additional verticals, with a long-term plan to open the studio's production system as a curriculum and tooling service for other Korean creators.
