About HyperKnown

Real people. Real consent.
Real content.

HyperKnown is the first marketplace where verified humans license their likeness for AI-generated video. Every creator is identity-verified. Every creator consents to every project. Every creator gets paid. No stock avatars. No anonymous faces.

How it works

Simple for everyone.

For brands

1

Browse verified creators

Every creator on HyperKnown is a real, identity-verified person with a Blue Tick badge. Browse by style, category, or tier to find the right face for your campaign.

2

Submit your brief

Tell us what you need. Your brief is checked against the creator's content restrictions before it reaches them. No payment is collected before creator approval.

3

Creator reviews and approves

The creator sees your brief and decides whether to accept. This is per-project consent, not a blanket agreement. If they decline, the request stops there.

4

License granted, production starts

Once the creator approves, you receive documented rights clearance and Apostle moves the work into production. Agency teams can request license-only clearance when they have their own approved workflow.

For creators

1

Sign up and verify

Create your profile, upload a selfie video, and verify your identity. You earn a Blue Tick badge and unlock higher earnings on your first job.

2

Go live

Once approved, your profile is visible to brands worldwide. You set your content restrictions. You control what you will and won't do.

3

Review briefs on your terms

When a brand wants to license your likeness, you review the brief and decide. Accept or decline. You are never automatically committed to anything.

4

Earn passively

When a brand pays, 65% of the licensing fee is allocated to your creator earnings. No invoicing. No chasing.

Not another avatar platform.

Stock avatar platforms use synthetic faces under blanket terms. Most prohibit paid advertising. HyperKnown licenses real, verified humans with per-project consent and ad-ready rights.

The license fee covers talent rights and consent. Apostle-managed production is quoted separately for end-to-end delivery.

For creators

Your face earns while you sleep.

Once your profile is live on HyperKnown, you earn every time a brand licenses your likeness. You don't shoot. You don't edit. You don't show up on set. Apostle or an approved production partner creates the content using AI and your verified likeness. You just get paid.

💰

65% of every license.

Allocated to your creator earnings before disclosed deductions.

🛡️

Per-project consent.

You review every brief before it goes live. Decline anything you're not comfortable with.

🚫

Restrictions recorded.

Set your boundaries, review each brief, and have the approved restrictions captured in the signed scope.

Blue Tick verification.

Your identity is confirmed and your profile carries a verified badge that brands trust.

📈

Clear project economics.

Every project shows the gross fee, your 65% share, deductions and payout timing before you approve it.

Earnings depend on how often brands choose your profile. Licensing frequency is not guaranteed.
