YIPEE FAQ
YIPEE is deliberately specific about what it does, what still needs connected production services, and where your permission remains in control. Start here when you need the practical version.
YIPEE OPERATING MODEL
AT A GLANCE
Only a Ready identity that has agreed to the production can appear as a lead.
The Vault is not a public profile and does not transfer to a collaborator or Studio.
Meaningful changes reopen review, and final approval applies to the newest output.
Your balance shows what was added, held, used, returned, or adjusted.
EVERYDAY QUESTIONS
Answers reflect what YIPEE offers today. If something is still a preview or not yet available, we say so plainly.
YIPEE Labs AI is a private video-creation workspace built around your verified likeness. It brings your identity, creative direction, consent, and review together for every production.
YIPEE is for verified adults. Before you can create with your likeness, you complete government ID and liveness verification, add at least 10 accepted photos with the required coverage, add a motion video and a speaking video, and approve use of your identity.
It confirms that you are the adult behind the account using government ID, a selfie match, and a liveness check. It does not give anyone ownership of your likeness or approve a production without your consent.
The confirmation page is only the last step you see. YIPEE updates your status only after your verification has been securely confirmed, so a closed tab or fake page cannot mark an identity as verified.
Ready means your adult verification, current consent, accepted photos with profile, upper-body, and full-body coverage, plus a motion video and speaking video are in place. It means YIPEE can use your likeness in a production; it does not promise a perfect result in every pose or scene.
After your YIPEE Identity is Ready, the account receives 160 non-cash trial credits for two 8-second 720p videos. No payment is required for that trial allocation.
When you start a production, YIPEE uses your approved Identity Vault photos to establish who the lead person is in each shot. Your brief still drives the idea; your photos simply help the video feature the right approved person.
A production can use up to nine images in total. You can add up to five inspiration images for the scene, while YIPEE uses the remaining space for approved photos of the people who appear. Solo shots usually use three to five identity photos; shared shots use one or two per person who is on screen.
A still anchor is a picture that helps describe context such as a place, wardrobe, product, composition, pose, color, or mood. It is not a likeness source and cannot silently nominate someone new to appear in the video.
YIPEE treats that person as inspiration, not a character. We can use the costume, place, object, or composition only when the other person is removed from the reference. Otherwise, the image cannot be used for that production.
Yes. Natural, anonymous background people are allowed when they fit the concept. They must not be matched to an uploaded non-participant face, named as a lead, or promoted into a verified participant role.
Yes. Each production can include one 2–15 second MP4 or MOV motion reference and one MP3 or WAV voice reference. A clean dialogue video may be privately processed into the one audio reference; it may also fill the single motion slot only when you explicitly select it for that purpose.
YIPEE uses only the approved photos needed to make your production. Your Identity Vault is not used to train a new YIPEE model. We will publish the data-handling terms for each connected video service before launch.
No. Video models can drift. YIPEE’s controls limit who may be a likeness target, what references are eligible, and when output may export; configured QA and human review are intended to catch failures, not promise perfect output in every pose, shot, or scene.
Co-Creators is a private production for two to four verified adults who know each other. Everyone agrees to the same brief, keeps their own identity private, and approves the finished result for themselves.
Invite someone with a one-time link or their verified email. You can also use their handle when they have chosen to be discoverable. Private identities never appear in search.
No. The Shared Production roster is the set of approved participants, while each storyboard shot names its visible people. This allows coordinated solo, paired, and group shots without implying that every person appears in every frame.
The total cost is split evenly after everyone accepts the current roster and brief. If the number does not divide evenly, YIPEE covers the remainder—no one pays an extra credit.
Yes, participants may unanimously appoint a director to edit the shared draft. That director cannot consent to identity use, approve a final output, or take any authority action for another participant.
If the people involved or the brief changes in a meaningful way, everyone reviews it again. Final approval always applies to the newest result, never an older version.
Co-Creators is a project-specific collaboration for two to four verified adults with an Even Split. Multi-Creator is a distinct two-adult shared-workspace plan with one pooled 1,800-credit allowance and joint approval gates; it does not use an internal Even Split.
No. Your Identity Vault is private. Collaborators, directors, and Studios cannot browse or download your identity or voice references. YIPEE uses only the approved material needed to make the production.
No. Creator Discovery is an authenticated in-product utility, not a public web directory. Public profiles are searchable only after sign-in, Unlisted profiles resolve only by exact handle, and Private identities never resolve.
A block prevents resolution, invitations, license requests, new collaboration, and future unexercised use in either direction. It does not rewrite a legally completed or already exercised record, which may still require separate support or legal handling.
Yes, you can create with your own Ready identity and lawful product or brand references to deliver a promotional video. Agree claims, commercial content use, channels, territory, term, payment, and approvals with the company before you generate; the finished output does not give the company Vault access.
Studio access is a Controlled Preview. A verified administrator can register an organization and discuss a proposed license, but paid licensing, payouts, licensed creation, external API access, and export are not live yet.
Likeness Licensing is an Enterprise Preview. Agreeing to proposed terms does not yet let a company create with your likeness. That becomes available only after business review, payment, approvals, and export protections are fully connected.
If YIPEE cannot deliver an accepted result, your reserved credits are returned. Choosing to make another creative version is a new generation. Automatic retries will be offered only after they are fully tested.
Revoking your identity stops future use first. YIPEE then processes deletion across your verification records and stored materials, subject to any records we must keep for safety, financial, or legal reasons. Use the in-product controls or contact support.
