Policy

Platform policy, in plain English.

We treat platform safety as a product feature. Here is what we do per policy, and what we will not do, ever.

YouTube, January 2025: Inauthentic Content policy

YouTube updated its Inauthentic Content policy in January 2025. Mass-produced or repetitive content, automated voiceovers on slideshow B-roll with no original commentary, and AI-generated content presented as real human commentary without disclosure are explicitly demonetised or removed.

What Slipstream does:

  • Originality scoring rejects scripts below 70 percent original phrasing against source URLs.
  • Synthesised voiceovers are tagged as such in the YouTube uploader API. The "altered or synthetic content" flag is set automatically when voice cloning is in use.
  • Every video has a human approval step. We pass contentDetails.contentRating as appropriate. No pure-bot uploads.
  • We do not produce slideshow content with no commentary. The script structure enforces hook, body beats, payoff, outro.

Instagram, August 2025: Original Content policy

Meta updated its original content signal in August 2025. Reposts, low-effort AI compositions, and accounts that reshare without adding original commentary are downranked. Creators who post original content are boosted.

What Slipstream does:

  • Captions are unique per platform. We do not post identical captions across YouTube, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
  • B-roll selection is varied per video, with no single shot longer than 4 seconds.
  • AI labels are set per Meta's content_label field via Graph API. We mark synthesised audio and synthesised visuals where applicable.
  • We rate-limit posting cadence per account age, so newly automated accounts ramp organically rather than burst-posting.

LinkedIn

LinkedIn's policy is less prescriptive about synthetic media, but their relevance model penalises duplicated content. We use the LinkedIn Marketing API and post a per-platform variant with a tailored caption and the optional companion carousel for additional reach.

X

X allows synthetic media with disclosure under their Authenticity policy. We tag synthetic media via the X API media_metadata labels when applicable. X integration is optional and disabled by default.

Voice cloning, the only voice we will clone is yours

Voice cloning requires a 5 minute sample of your own voice plus a signed consent recording. We store the consent receipt with a timestamp and signature hash. ElevenLabs, the synthesis layer, enforces the same at their end. We will not clone a public figure's voice. We will not clone a deceased person. We will not clone any voice that is not yours.

What gets a script rejected

Some categories never get rendered:

  • Medical advice without an "I am not a doctor, consult a professional" disclaimer on-screen.
  • Financial advice without an "Not SEBI registered, not financial advice" disclaimer for Indian finance content. SEC equivalents elsewhere.
  • Legal advice in the same vein.
  • Impersonation of named public figures.
  • Content involving minors in any non-educational context.
  • Adult content. Hate speech. Targeted harassment. Self-harm content.

Copyright

Every render runs an audio fingerprint check against major label catalog before approval is enabled. Music comes from licensed libraries (Mubert, Epidemic Sound, licence-free). B-roll comes from Pexels, Pixabay, and Storyblocks under their licence terms. User-uploaded face clips are owned by the user. Stock licence metadata is stored per asset.

DPDP compliance, Indian users

Indian users' data is stored in the Mumbai region (ap-south-1) per the Digital Personal Data Protection Act. Privacy notice and data principal rights are published. A grievance officer is appointed.

Grievance officer reachable at grievance@slipstream.video. Response within 30 days per DPDP requirements.

What we will never do

  • Promise virality. Performance is never guaranteed.
  • Generate content that violates a platform's policy on purpose.
  • Sell your scripts, voiceovers, videos, or analytics to any third party.
  • Auto-post anything you have not approved.
  • Train any general-purpose model on your data.
