Creator Verification

How a creator becomes a verified AI mentor

There is no shortcut, no auto-publish, and no impersonation. Every step exists to protect creators, learners, and the integrity of the platform.

Average time from signup to live mentor: 3–7 days, depending on how quickly you complete identity, ownership, tax, and content steps.
  1. 1

    Create a creator account

    The creator signs up personally with a verified email and strong password. No anonymous or third-party submissions. 2FA is required before going live.

  2. 2

    Verify your real identity

    We confirm your legal name and (for US creators) age 18+ via our identity-verification partner. Government-issued ID may be requested for high-risk categories (finance, legal, medical-adjacent).

  3. 3

    Add official channel and social links

    YouTube, podcast, website, LinkedIn, Instagram, X, TikTok — anything that establishes you as the public figure behind the mentor.

  4. 4

    Prove ownership of those channels

    We accept channel-description tokens, DNS TXT records, OAuth login to the platform, or notarized declaration. At least one strong proof per channel.

  5. 5

    Connect or upload owned content only

    Videos, audio, transcripts, PDFs, scripts, notes, slides, and voice samples must be owned by you or licensed. We scan for obvious third-party material.

  6. 6

    Accept the Creator Agreement

    You sign the Creator Agreement, Identity Protection Rules, and Community Guidelines electronically (ESIGN Act-compliant).

  7. 7

    Complete US tax onboarding

    US persons submit IRS Form W-9; non-US persons submit W-8BEN (individual) or W-8BEN-E (entity). Required before any payout is released.

  8. 8

    Set up payouts

    Connect your bank account or PayPal through our payout provider. Minimum payout threshold is US $50; payouts are issued monthly on net-30 terms.

  9. 9

    Approve your AI mentor

    Review the generated bio, photo, voice, behavior, and sample answers. You must approve every element before submission.

  10. 10

    Admin approval

    A TubeMentor AI admin reviews everything end-to-end. We reject mentors that appear to impersonate any real person without consent or that violate any platform rule. Approved mentors go live within 1–3 business days.

What we will reject

  • Profiles that copy or imitate a real public figure's identity without consent
  • Uploads the creator does not own or have rights to use
  • Voice clones, photos, or likenesses of someone other than the creator
  • Brand or channel names used without authorization
  • Content that would deliver medical, legal, financial, or mental-health services without proper licensure
  • Creators on US OFAC sanctions lists or in embargoed jurisdictions

Re-verification

We may ask you to re-verify identity, ownership, or tax info annually, after a material profile change, or after a credible third-party report.
