Social Media Takedowns
Social and video-sharing platforms are where pirated clips, full uploads and fake brand profiles reach the largest audiences fastest. Ayatii finds that content, documents it and reports it through the channel each platform provides, so it comes down and your rights are on record.
METHODOLOGY
Our Social Media Takedown Methodology
Social platforms each have their own forms, policies and review habits. Our method turns that variety into one routine that your team can follow and audit.
Locate
We search the platforms where your content and brand circulate, including video feeds, short clips, live streams, groups, pages and comment links. Findings are logged with the account, the post and the context that surrounds it.
Qualify
Reviewers separate genuine infringement from fair commentary, licensed reposts and fan activity you may wish to tolerate. Only items that meet the platform's reporting criteria and your own instructions move forward.
Report
We file through the correct route for each platform, whether that is a copyright form, a trademark report, an impersonation report or a trusted-partner channel where one is available to you. Each report cites the rights and the exact location.
Follow Up
We check whether content was removed, handle rejections and counter-notices with your input, and flag accounts that keep reposting so they can be escalated as repeat infringers.

The service covers the three kinds of social abuse rights holders raise most often: infringing media, fake identities and live or time-sensitive posts.
DELIVERABLES
What Is Included in Social Media Takedowns
Each engagement produces records your team can inspect, not just a count of removed posts. These are the five deliverables.
WHY US
Why Choose Ayatii for Social Media Takedowns
Social enforcement is high volume and fast moving. The points below describe how Ayatii handles it for rights holders and brands.
Platform-Specific Reporting
Every platform has different forms and evidence expectations. We prepare each report for the platform it is going to, rather than sending a generic notice everywhere.
Judgement Before Volume
A reviewer decides what is worth reporting under your guidelines. That protects your brand from over-enforcement against fans and keeps your reports credible.
Impersonation and Piracy Under One Roof
Pirated media and fake profiles often come from the same accounts. Handling both in one place lets us connect them and report the pattern.
Records That Hold Up
Each report is documented from capture to outcome, so counter-notices and disputes can be answered with facts instead of memory.
ABOUT SOCIAL TAKEDOWNS
About Social Media Takedowns
A social media takedown is a request to a platform to remove content or an account that infringes copyright or trademark, or that impersonates a person or business. Platforms receive these through reporting forms, dedicated copyright channels and, for some partners, bulk-reporting tools.
Social content is hard to control because it is uploaded by individuals, re-shared quickly and often cut into short clips that avoid simple matching. A clip removed from one account can reappear on several others within the same day.
Effective work depends on precise reports, consistent follow-up and an understanding of which accounts are repeat sources. Where disputes or legal questions arise, we work with your counsel rather than taking positions on your behalf.
What Social Takedowns Typically Cover
- Pirated clips and uploads: full episodes, match footage, films and tracks posted to video and social feeds.
- Live restreams: unauthorised broadcasts of events relayed through social live features.
- Fake brand profiles: accounts and pages that copy a name, logo or voice to mislead followers.
- Link-sharing accounts: profiles whose purpose is to send followers to pirate sites or counterfeit stores.
- Group and channel content: private or semi-public communities that share infringing files and links.
Platforms decide the outcome of every report, so careful evidence and clear scope are the parts of the process we can control.

Frequently asked questions
Which social platforms can you report to?
We report through the public and partner reporting channels of the major social and video-sharing platforms. The exact list depends on where your content appears and which channels you are eligible to use, and we confirm it during scoping.
Will every reported post be removed?
No, and no one can promise that. Each platform makes its own decision. Complete evidence and the right report category improve the chances, and we follow up on rejections where an appeal is reasonable.
Can you handle counter-notices from uploaders?
We manage the administrative side and bring each counter-notice to you. Decisions about whether to contest it, and any legal response, are for you and your counsel.
Do you report fan content?
Only if you want us to. We agree guidelines on fan edits, commentary and licensed reposts during scoping, so reporting matches your relationship with your audience.
Do we need to give you account access?
Normally no. Reports are filed from the rights holder or authorised agent position using the evidence we capture. Some platforms offer partner tools that need an approval from your side, and we explain what that involves.
