What is the Brand Safety Analysis Export?

The Brand Safety Analysis Export lets you evaluate an influencer's recent content across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and X for potentially sensitive topics. The analysis is powered by AI, which reviews post captions to detect content that may pose a brand safety risk across the following categories:

  • Drug-Related

  • Political or World Conflict

  • Religion-Related

  • Profanity or Swearword

  • Alcohol-Related

  • Medical or Health-Related

  • Violence or Weapons

  • Gambling or Financial Advice

  • Sensitive Social Issues

  • Tobacco-Related

  • Hate Speech

All categories are always included in the analysis, you do not need to select them individually.

How the analysis works: To ensure comprehensive and timely coverage, the analysis draws from the most recent posts across all four platforms, ordered by creation date, covering up to 1,000 posts or one year of content, whichever comes first.


Export types

Single Brand Safety Export analyzes one influencer at a time and includes:

  • Cross-network content analysis (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and X)

  • Up to 200 posts analyzed across networks

  • A detailed list of identified sensitive posts with captions, post URLs, and category flags

Bulk Brand Safety Export analyzes up to 250 influencers in a single export and includes everything in the Single export, plus:

  • A risk score for each influencer

  • An influencer ranking page showing each influencer's number of posts analyzed, number of sensitive posts, sensitive post ratio, and breakdown by category

Troubleshooting

I don't see the Brand Safety export option. You may not have access to this feature. Check your Workspace Settings to confirm the Brand Safety feature is enabled. If it is not, contact your account manager to discuss access.

I requested an export but haven't received an email. Export processing may take a few minutes depending on the number of influencers and posts being analyzed. Check your spam or junk folder if the email hasn't arrived after 10–15 minutes. If the issue persists, contact support.

My download link has expired. Export links are valid for one week. If your link has expired, return to the platform and generate a new export.

I see an error email instead of a success notification. If the export failed, you will receive an error email. Try generating the export again. If the problem continues, contact support@lefty.io
