AI Content Approval: get your content checked before you submit
AI Content Approval is a quick, automatic review of your content before it becomes an official submission. It checks what you're about to upload against the campaign's brief — the quality of your media, whether your caption has everything it needs, and whether you've followed the brand's do's and don'ts.
Think of it as a friendly second pair of eyes: it catches the small things that usually lead to a revision request, so you can fix them in seconds instead of waiting for the brand to reply.
Note: AI Content Approval is only available on campaigns where the brand has turned it on. If a campaign doesn't use it, you'll upload your content the usual way.

When you'll see it
You'll go through AI Content Approval when you upload a deliverable for a campaign that has the feature enabled and your application is accepted and active.
It works for every content type:
- Stories (one or several, depending on the campaign)
- Posts (single image or a carousel)
- Reels
- TikTok videos
- UGC videos
---
How it works, step by step
1. Add your content
Tap to upload the media for your deliverable.
- Videos (Reel, TikTok, UGC): choose one video file.
- Posts: add up to 12 images or media items for a carousel.
- Stories: add your story media. If the campaign asks for several stories, you'll add them one after another until the full set is ready.
2. Write your caption
For everything except Stories, you'll write your caption right on the screen.
To make this easier, you'll see quick-add buttons:
- Add hashtags — inserts the campaign's required hashtags.
- Add tags — inserts the accounts you need to tag (like the brand's handle).
- Add a keyword (TikTok only) — if the campaign suggests keywords, you'll see them as tappable chips. Tap any keyword to drop it into your caption. These are optional — they're there to help, and you're never required to use them.
Stories don't have a caption step, so you'll skip straight to the check.
3. Tap "Evaluate"
Once your media and caption are ready, tap Evaluate. The AI gets to work and you'll watch the checks come in live — you don't have to wait in the dark. You'll see a progress bar, how many checks have passed or failed so far, and how long it's taking.

Understanding your results
When the check finishes, you'll get one of three outcomes.
✅ Approved — ready to send
Your content passed. You'll see a green confirmation and a Send button. Tap it to submit your content to the brand. That's it — you're done.
Sometimes an approved result still includes a few yellow notes. These are minor suggestions, not blockers — you can send your content as-is, or tweak it first if you'd like.
✏️ Changes needed
Something didn't pass. Each item that needs attention shows:
- What's wrong — a short, plain explanation.
- How to fix it — a concrete suggestion.
- For videos, a timestamp you can tap to jump straight to the exact moment in your clip.
You'll also see which part of the brief the note came from, so you can double-check the original instructions.
Checks are grouped so you know where to look:
- Quality — things like lighting, audio, shakiness, or video resolution.
- Brief — whether your content follows what the brand asked for.
- Caption — required hashtags, tags, or wording in your caption.
🚫 Blocked
Occasionally content can't be evaluated at all — most often because it's the same content you've already uploaded elsewhere. You'll get a short message explaining why, and you'll need to use different content.

Fixing and re-checking
The best part: fixing an issue is fast, and how you fix it depends on what went wrong.
If only your caption needs changes
You'll see an Edit caption option and a Re-check caption button. Update your caption and re-check — this is the quick path, and it only re-runs the caption checks rather than the whole review.
If your media needs changes
Replace the media that had the issue, then tap Re-evaluate. The button becomes active once you've swapped in your new version. Items you've already fixed are shown as resolved, so you can keep track of what's left.
You can re-check as many times as you need until your content is approved.
---
Sending your content
When your content is approved, tap Send. Your evaluated content is submitted to the brand directly — you don't have to re-upload anything, because the app already has the version you just checked.
You'll see a green success screen confirming it's on its way. From there, tap Done to head back.

Something look wrong?
If you think the AI got a check wrong, tap Report a mistake on the results screen and tell us what happened. Your feedback goes straight to our team and helps make the checks more accurate for everyone.

Quick tips
- Read the "how to fix" note on any failed check — it usually tells you exactly what to change.
- Tap the timestamp on a video note to jump to the exact moment that needs attention.
- Use the caption helper buttons so you never forget a required hashtag or tag.
- Caption-only issues are the fastest to fix — you don't need to re-record anything.
- Notes (yellow) are optional; only red items block you from sending.

Frequently asked questions
Does AI Content Approval post my content to Instagram or TikTok for me?
No. It checks your content and submits it to the brand for approval within Refluenced. You still publish to your social platform as usual once everything's confirmed.
Are TikTok keywords required?
No. They're optional suggestions to help you write your caption. You can tap any of them to add them, or skip them entirely.
Do Stories get a caption check?
No — Stories don't have a caption step. They're checked for quality and against the brief.
What if my content keeps getting flagged?
Follow the "how to fix" guidance on each note, replace or re-record the specific part mentioned, and re-check. If you're confident a check is wrong, use Report a mistake so our team can review it.
Will I lose my work if I close the screen?
Submit your content once it's approved. If you leave before sending, you may need to add your media and caption again.
