How Video of the Day works

We scan YouTube for the newest clips made with named AI generators (Sora, Veo, Kling, Runway, Luma and others), keep only the ones that are genuinely AI-generated (not tutorials or reactions), and score every candidate with our public engine. It reads only observable public signals — disclosures, named tools, and viewer comments — to produce a deterministic AI Generation Likelihood. The most-watched clip that clears our bar is the Video of the Day. It is an honest indicator, never a certainty.

Every clip plays through YouTube’s own embedded player and links back to its creator; we never re-host anyone’s video. Want the full breakdown on any clip? Paste it into the analyzer. For the historical record of synthetic media used to deceive, see the Incident Archive.
