YouTube takedowns
Your video, someone else's channel.
Removed, with a strike on record.
Re-uploads, ripped Shorts, compilation channels monetizing your catalog. We file through YouTube's copyright webform with the ownership evidence reviewers check first, and every removal lands as a strike on the channel that took your work.
One case = one channel or compilation cluster, 1–50 URLs by package. Every step timestamped in your dashboard.
What we remove from YouTube
The theft patterns we see every week
How YouTube actually processes copyright
Three strikes is not a slogan
YouTube's copyright strike system is the strongest deterrent in social video: three valid strikes and the channel is terminated. That makes a properly filed complaint a different weapon from a comment or a message. We file through the copyright webform with a statutorily complete notice, so each removal is both the content gone and a mark against the channel's record.
- Filed through YouTube's copyright webform, the channel with removal power
- Ownership anchored to your original upload or first-publication page
- Strikes recorded per channel, three ends it
- Content ID strategy guidance for catalogs that qualify
The channels we work
Copyright complaint webform
The statutory DMCA route for videos and Shorts. Official form: youtube.com/copyright_complaint_form
Copyright strikes
Every valid removal is a strike; three strikes terminate the channel. Repeat reposters do not survive consistent enforcement.
Counter-notifications
If the uploader disputes, the 10–14 business-day window opens. We brief you on the odds and handle the response if it comes.
What happens after you start
Four steps, then it is our problem
- 1
You paste the links
The YouTube video or Shorts URLs using your content, plus a link to your original. One case covers one channel or compilation cluster, up to 50 URLs on the largest package.
- 2
We build the ownership file
Your original upload's timestamp, source files, publication history. YouTube's reviewers compare first-publication evidence, so we put yours front and center.
- 3
The complaint goes through the copyright webformall channels
Statutorily complete, field by field, with the strike recorded against the channel and escalation ready if review drags.
- 4
We track it to removal
Status per URL in your dashboard, follow-ups on slow reviews, and the counter-notification response if the channel fights back. Every step timestamped.
What it costs

One case covers one original asset against one channel or compilation cluster on YouTube. The level sets how many video URLs it covers: 1–9, 10–25 or 26–50.
