The problem
Most AI video uses people
who never said yes
Stock avatar platforms use synthetic faces under blanket terms. No identity verification. No per-project consent. No proof the person is real or was compensated. When regulators and platforms start asking questions, you have nothing to show.

How it works
License, consent, produce
You handle production. We handle the talent, the consent, and the paperwork.
Step 01
Find the right face
Browse verified creators by style, demographic, and category. Every person on HyperKnown is real, identity-verified, and has opted in to license their likeness.
Step 02
Submit your brief and get consent
Describe your project. The creator reviews and approves your specific use case. You pay only after they consent.
Step 03
Receive your license and production handoff
Once approved, you receive rights documentation and Apostle moves the work into production. Agency teams can request license-only clearance when they have their own approved workflow.
Use cases
One marketplace, many use cases
Wherever you use AI-generated video with a human likeness, the person should be real, consented, and paid. That is what HyperKnown provides.
Localization
License talent from different markets to localize AI video across regions. A real face from each market, properly licensed and consented.
Ad campaigns
Use a real, consented human likeness in your AI-generated ads. Full rights documentation for paid media compliance across social, digital, and broadcast.
Corporate communications
Internal training, product demos, customer onboarding. A licensed real face instead of a synthetic avatar that your audience can tell is fake.
Agency production
Apostle can produce the content end to end, or agency teams can request license-only clearance while HyperKnown handles talent consent, documentation, and payout.

You are licensing a real person's likeness (face, voice, or both) for use in AI-generated content. The license covers the right to use their likeness within the channels, territory, and duration specified by the tier. The creator has given documented, per-project consent for your specific use case.
Yes. HyperKnown is the licensing and consent layer, and Apostle can produce the finished AI video after creator approval. Qualified agencies can also use HyperKnown as a license-only rights clearance workflow.
HyperKnown is designed for real, identity-verified adults who approve each project individually. When a transaction completes, the brand receives a versioned, signed license and consent evidence. Brands remain responsible for claim substantiation, disclosures, platform rules, and applicable law.
Yes, depending on the tier. Community covers social and web. Semi-Professional adds digital ads and broadcast animatics. Professional extends to broadcast TV, CTV/OTT, and digital out-of-home. The license includes the channel rights documentation you need.
You are never charged for a declined brief. You can submit to a different creator or adjust your brief and resubmit.
Per-project consent creates evidence that the person agreed to the documented use. It is an important control, but it does not replace legal review, advertising substantiation, disclosures, or compliance with the rules that apply to a campaign.
