What triggers it

AI-generated or AI-altered realistic content posted without a disclosure in a region whose law requires AI labelling (e.g. the EU under the AI Act).

What Snapchat says

“This includes local laws that mandate disclosures for AI-generated content. If a user does not comply with these transparency rules, we may restrict the content's visibility or remove the content.”

How to fix it

Add a clear 'AI-generated' label on screen and in the caption.

Good to know

Realistic AI faces, voices or scenes with no 'AI-generated' text. Content made with Snapchat's own AI tools already carries indicators.

Can FYProof spot it?

A full check of your video looks for it in what's shown and the caption. What a check finds is an estimate, not a guarantee.

  • Video: looked at for this rule
  • Speech: not for this rule
  • On-screen text: not for this rule
  • Caption: looked at for this rule
  • Hashtags: not for this rule

Sounds other than speech, such as music, aren't checked.

It doesn't read details stored inside the file, such as labels an editing app adds.
