Answers about how Reruns works, your content, billing, and more.
After you finish streaming, Reruns grabs the VOD, transcribes it, and finds the best moments and story arcs. It cuts those into finished videos with titles, descriptions, tags, and chapters. Each video gets reviewed for quality, then uploads to your YouTube as unlisted. You decide what goes public.
Once you authorize YouTube and stream, you should see unlisted videos on your channel within a day or two. A typical 8-12 hour VOD takes a few hours to process. Pro and Enterprise get priority in the queue.
Currently, all content is published to YouTube (long-form videos and Shorts). TikTok, Instagram Reels, X/Twitter, and Reddit distribution is coming soon and will be included in Pro and Enterprise plans at no extra cost.
Yes. Everything we make from your VODs is yours. We don't claim any rights to it. If you cancel, everything stays on your channel.
Yes. Every video uploads as unlisted. Nothing goes public until you change it. Open YouTube Studio, review what we made, publish what you like, delete what you don't.
Open YouTube Studio, go to Content, find the unlisted video, click the pencil icon to edit, change Visibility from "Unlisted" to "Public", and save. That is all it takes. You can also schedule them for future dates.
Delete it from YouTube Studio. It is your channel and your content. You can also let us know what you did not like -- we use that feedback to improve what we produce for you going forward.
Our AI analyzes each VOD for narrative arcs, audience reactions (chat activity spikes, emote bursts), entertainment value, and dramatic moments. It identifies complete stories with clear beginnings, middles, and ends -- not just random clip compilations. The goal is content that stands on its own and makes sense to viewers who were not watching live.
Every video gets scored by 7 independent AI reviewers looking at different things: narrative quality, entertainment value, audio clarity, pacing, title accuracy, thumbnail potential, and audience relevance. If a video doesn't hit the bar, it gets cut and never uploads. Your channel only sees the stuff that passed.
Yes. There are 5 default editor profiles (Full Stories, Highlights, Shorts, Character Arcs, Chat Reacts) with different pacing, effects, and music. You can tweak any of them or we can build new ones. Just tell us what you want -- cold opens on or off, caption style, chat overlay, music mood, whatever -- and we'll set it up. We can also adjust over time based on what performs well on your channel.
Yes. Pro and Enterprise subscribers can submit 3-5 YouTube URLs of videos they love — from any channel — and we'll analyze the editing style (pacing, cut frequency, music, effects) and build a custom profile that matches. Reply to your welcome email with the URLs, or use the API endpoint: POST /api/train-profile/YOUR_SLUG with a JSON body containing your URLs. Your custom profiles will be applied to all future content.
We run genre-calibrated safety scanning on every video. This means our system understands the difference between content that is normal for your genre (e.g., in-game violence in an FPS stream) and content that would actually be problematic. We do not flag your content for things that are standard in your community.
Everything uploads as unlisted, so nothing goes public without you. Every video also runs through safety scanning before upload. If something still gets through that shouldn't have, delete it from YouTube Studio and tell us -- we'll tighten the filters.
Through your billing portal at reruns.tv/billing. It is completely self-service and instant -- no emails to send, no retention calls, no waiting. You can also find the link in any Lemon Squeezy receipt email. Processing stops immediately. Everything already on your channel stays.
Yes. The same billing portal at reruns.tv/billing lets you pause your subscription. Processing pauses while you are away. When you are ready, unpause and we pick up right where you left off.
Same billing portal at reruns.tv/billing. Upgrades take effect immediately. Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing cycle. Prorated charges are handled automatically.
Credit card and PayPal, processed securely through Lemon Squeezy. We never see or store your payment details.
Two options: provide a Discord webhook URL during checkout, or set up a Discord webhook for notifications. Either way, you will get real-time notifications in your server when content is produced and uploaded.
Upload alerts (every time a new video hits your channel), best-of highlights (when a video scores exceptionally well in review), and daily/weekly digests summarizing your content production stats.
Yes. Reply to your welcome email with your preferences -- which notification types you want, how often, and in which channels. We will configure it for you.
We will send you a reminder within 24 hours. If you still have not connected after a day, you will get an email and a Discord notification with a direct link to complete the authorization. Nothing will be lost -- your content queue builds up and starts uploading as soon as you connect.
To re-authorize, contact us at [email protected] and we'll send you a fresh authorization link. This clears your existing YouTube authorization and starts a fresh OAuth flow so you can connect a different YouTube account.
Yes. You can invite managers, editors, and viewers to your account. Managers can view your pipeline status and access the billing portal. Editors can view status and download raw assets. Viewers can see status only. To add team members, reply to your welcome email with their email addresses and roles, and we will set them up. Full self-service team management is coming soon in the dashboard.
It allows us to upload videos directly to YOUR channel. We use standard Google OAuth -- the same system every YouTube app uses. You can revoke access at any time in your Google account settings (Security > Third-party apps). We only request upload permissions, never access to your analytics, revenue, or personal data.
Yes. OAuth tokens are stored encrypted on disk. Environment variables with secrets are never committed to version control. The API server runs behind a Cloudflare tunnel with HTTPS. For full details, see our Privacy Policy.
Content already on YouTube stays up and is unaffected. Processing resumes automatically when the system recovers. We run health checks every 15 minutes and have automated alerting. You can check our current system status at reruns.tv/status.
