How Do I Upload Content From Different Sources and Post It in the Community Media Network?

Overview

Use Uploads when you want to bring owned, partner, creator, or offline content directly into Genuin and publish it inside your brand-owned Community Media Network, without relying on external social platforms.

This matters because Uploads allow brands to:

• Retain full ownership of content and data
• Apply AI-powered moderation with human oversight
• Standardize quality, formats, and governance at scale
• Turn raw video assets into engaging, community-native experiences

This guide is designed for:

• Content and editorial teams uploading owned or licensed media
• Marketing teams activating campaign or brand videos
• Community managers publishing creator or UGC submissions
• Operations teams standardizing ingestion and approvals

If you manage video or media assets and want them live inside communities and groups, this guide shows you how.

What You Can Upload Using Genuin

Genuin supports uploads from multiple sources, all flowing through a single governed workflow.

Supported Upload Sources

• Local device uploads (MP4, MOV, supported formats)
• Cloud storage links
• Creator-submitted files
• Brand-owned video libraries

All uploaded content enters the same review, moderation, and publishing pipeline.

End-to-End Upload and Publish Flow

Step 1: Access Uploads

Navigate to: Brand Control Center > Curate > Activity > Post > Uploads

This is the central place to ingest non-social video content.

Step 2: Upload Your Content

Click Upload Content and select your source.

During upload, you can:

• Select one or multiple files
• Monitor upload status
• Resume interrupted uploads

Genuin processes files automatically once upload completes.

Step 3: Add Content Metadata and Settings

After upload, enrich your content with:

• Title and description
• Captions and caption styles
• Thumbnail or clickbait image
• Background music (if applicable)
• Smart crop and aspect ratio

These settings help ensure content is community-native and platform-optimized.

Step 4: Content Processing and AI Enrichment

Once submitted, content moves into processing where Genuin Adaptive Intelligence:

• Analyzes video and audio
• Generates suggested titles, captions, and tags
• Evaluates relevance and quality
• Prepares content for moderation

No content is published automatically without review.

Step 5: Review and Curate Content

Navigate to: Curate > Activity

Here, uploaded content appears in one of four states:

• Processing
• Awaiting to Post
• Approved
• Rejected

Editors can:

• Approve, reject, or move content
• Assign communities and groups
• Perform bulk actions

Step 6: Apply Brand Safety and Moderation

Before publishing, all uploads pass through moderation:

• AI-based policy checks
• Brand guideline validation
• Manual editorial approval

This ensures uploads meet quality, compliance, and trust standards.

Step 7: Publish to Communities and Groups

Once approved, publish content into:

• Brand communities
• Topic-based groups
• Campaign or seasonal collections

Published content appears as:

• Scrollable video feeds
• Embedded community modules
• App or web-native experiences

How Uploaded Content Is Experienced by Users

For end users, uploaded content feels native and interactive:

• Discovered via community feeds
• Organized by relevance and interest
• Engaged through likes, comments, and shares
• Returned to through personalized experiences

This keeps users inside your owned properties longer.

Governance, Control, and Ownership

Uploads operate with strict governance:

• Role-based permissions
• Full audit logs
• Clear approval workflows
• No auto-publishing without review

Brands always control:

• Where content appears
• Who can upload and approve
• How content is monetized

Specs and Limitations

• Role-based access applies to uploads and approvals
• Some enrichment features require admin permissions
• All content must pass moderation before publishing

Best Practices for Uploads

• Standardize naming and metadata
• Use smart crop for vertical-first experiences
• Review AI suggestions before approving
• Organize content into clear communities and groups
