FAQ

  • What is Hoopoz and what does it offer?

    Hoopoz is an AI platform that monitors affiliate and creator ads for legal violations, detects illegal competitor ads, and automatically removes them from Meta and Google. It is built for regulated industries including Pharma, Insurance, iGaming, Finance and Fintech.

  • How do I monitor what ads my affiliates are posting?

    Hoopoz automatically scans every video, audio track, image and caption your affiliates post across TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Meta, Twitch and more — in real time. You get a single dashboard showing every ad running under your brand, who posted it, and whether it is compliant.

  • How do I report non-compliant competitor ads on Meta and Google?

    Hoopoz Reclaim automatically detects non-compliant competitor ads, builds a legally structured complaint pinned to the exact regulation it breaks, and submits it directly to Meta or Google on your behalf. Takedowns happen in hours, not weeks.

  • Can Hoopoz detect missing FTC disclosures in influencer videos?

    Yes. Hoopoz scans both audio and visual elements of every video to detect missing FTC disclosures, undisclosed sponsorships, and illegal claims. It flags violations in real time so your compliance team can act before a platform or regulator does.

  • How do I find out which influencers are working with my competitors?

    Hoopoz scans competitor ads, affiliate content, and public creator posts across all major platforms to identify which influencers and creators are partnered with competing brands. This intelligence feeds directly into your own creator recruitment strategy.

  • What industries does Hoopoz serve?

    Hoopoz is purpose-built for regulated industries where non-compliant advertising carries the highest legal and financial risk — Finance, Fintech, iGaming, Sports Betting, Pharma, Supplements, Insurance, Crypto and CFD Trading.

  • How does Hoopoz remove illegal competitor ads?

    Hoopoz Reclaim uses a proprietary legal knowledge base covering FTC, DSA, FCA, EMA and ASA regulations across 20+ jurisdictions. When a violation is detected, an AI enforcement agent automatically generates a legally structured complaint and files it with the relevant platform or regulator — triggering a mandatory takedown.

    Hoopoz monitors TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Meta, Google Ads, Twitch, Kick.com, Rumble, X and Snapchat — with more platforms added regularly. All monitored content is accessible from a single compliance dashboard.

  • How is Hoopoz different from BrandVerity or BluePear?

    BrandVerity and BluePear monitor paid search only — Google and Bing. Hoopoz monitors everything: video, audio, image and paid ads across all major social and video platforms. Hoopoz also goes further with automated legal takedowns, FTC disclosure detection, and influencer discovery built into the same platform.

  • How quickly does Hoopoz detect a compliance violation?

    Hoopoz scans content daily with real-time alerts for high-severity violations. When a competitor ad violation is detected, the automated takedown process begins immediately — from detection to removal typically takes hours, not days or weeks.
