Content Policy

Last updated: June 2026

Episodo exists to make original parody starring fictional AI characters. Premises are screened automatically before any rendering happens, and violations can mean blocked generations, removed content, or a closed account.

Not allowed

  • Real people. No depicting identifiable real people — celebrities, politicians, your coworkers, anyone. Parody here means fictional characters, not deepfakes.
  • Third-party IP.No recreating copyrighted characters, shows, logos, or brands. “An office comedy” is fine; naming or replicating a specific show or its characters is not.
  • Sexual content of any kind, and any content sexualizing or endangering minors — zero tolerance, reported where the law requires.
  • Hate, harassment, or violence — content demeaning people for protected characteristics, targeting individuals, or glorifying real-world violence.
  • Deception — passing AI output off as real footage, fake news, scams, or impersonating organizations.
  • Illegal content or instructions that facilitate serious harm.

Encouraged

  • Original characters in absurd situations — that’s the whole point.
  • Genre parody: cooking shows, reality-TV tropes, nature documentaries, late-night formats.
  • Disclosing that your videos are AI-made when you post them — most platforms now require it.

Enforcement & appeals

Automated screening blocks disallowed premises before any rendering spend. Anything featured in the public Explore gallery gets an additional human review. If you think a block or removal was a mistake, tell us via the help page — appeals are read by a human.
