LiveTube prioritizes real-time reporting to ensure authenticity. All streams go through an initial verification process by our advanced AI system, followed by a review by a newsroom producer. A 30-second broadcast delay allows our team to moderate content and ensure it adheres to LiveTube’s rules. Producers can intervene to stop a broadcast if it violates our content guidelines or poses safety risks.
