Content creators

Your content goes viral. So does the proof it's yours.

Videos get downloaded and reposted on other accounts, original formats get copied within days and scripts leak before filming. To request a takedown or negotiate with a brand, you need to show you're the author. Recording the original file before posting solves that in seconds.

The challenge

Where proof usually breaks down

Reposted on another account

Your video shows up on another profile, sometimes with more views than the original.

Reports without proof

Platforms ask you to demonstrate authorship before removing copied content. A screenshot isn't enough.

Copied formats

An original segment takes off and, within a week, several channels are doing the same.

How Docmint helps

Technical proof that's simple to create and easy to check

Original recorded before posting

The recorded raw file shows you had the video before any repost.

Backing for takedowns

A dated receipt with a verification link strengthens takedown requests.

Brand negotiations

Recorded proposals and formats make clear what's yours when a brand wants your idea.

No uploading heavy videos

Hashing is local: large files never need to be sent.

What to record

Files worth recording

  • Original videos before publishing
  • Scripts and segment ideas
  • Formats, intros and stingers
  • Thumbnails and channel art
  • Podcasts and audio episodes
  • Courses and exclusive materials
  • Brand-deal proposals
  • Photos and behind the scenes

Any format works: Docmint records the file's fingerprint, not its content.

In practice: before publishing a video

You've edited a video that should reach a big audience.

  1. 1

    Export the final video in high quality.

  2. 2

    Record the file in Docmint before uploading it to social media.

  3. 3

    Publish as usual and keep the original and the receipt.

  4. 4

    If you find reposts, use the receipt to prove authorship in your report.

Best practices

  • Record the exported file, not the version downloaded from the platform (its hash changes).
  • Record scripts and formats before filming.
  • Keep high-quality originals with backups.
  • When negotiating with brands, record the proposal you send.
  • Consider registering your channel name as a trademark.

What the law says

Audiovisual works and scripts are protected from creation under the Berne Convention. Platforms usually require proof of authorship to remove copied content; Docmint's record is technical evidence that supports it. Formats and ideas themselves have limited protection.

Frequently asked questions

If the platform compresses the video, does the record still hold?

The record covers the original file you exported. Keep that file: it's what proves authorship.

Does it guarantee a repost is removed?

The platform decides, but dated proof of authorship greatly strengthens your request.

Should I record every video?

Record those with the most potential or commercial value. Batches let you record many at once.
