No. We clearly label our paid videos as "overviews" and always identify them as sponsored. At your request, we can include both positive feedback and constructive criticism to help the video feel more balanced and less promotional — or we can remit that feedback to you privately. We generally recommend that brands exercise as little editorial control as possible. You're paying for our authentic voice to our audience, and we wouldn't be working with you if we didn't think the product was good!

No, we do not offer category exclusivity.

We're interested in high-quality products and services that provide real value to our audience. The better the fit for a maker/DIY audience, the better the ad will perform. Our best performers tend to be 3D printing products, tools, and other maker services.

Yes, we do! Contact us to discuss.

Yes, and we'd love to receive them! That said, the whole reason you're working with us is for our authentic voice and the way we present things to our audience. We do not read verbatim talking points or allow brand rewrites of our content.

A minimum of 1 year for ad spots, and forever for project videos and overview videos.

Our typical lead time is 3–6 weeks from the moment the contract is signed, depending on when we receive the product, production schedules, and other factors.

Absolutely. We keep a public version of our contract available at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CKP0ulmG-ZEo3BUBZ3GjhrVgnHmBvWNoi3xgVcCqPfA/edit

Yes. We prefer you review the text draft first to minimize re-edits, and we stay in constant communication throughout the process. One round of video revisions is permitted for the sponsored segments, to be requested within 48 hours of receiving the draft. No refilming unless it's to correct factual errors or material misrepresentation of the product.

One round of revisions on the sponsored segments, within 48 hours of delivery. We also welcome script-level feedback before filming to minimize back-and-forth later.

For dedicated videos: 50% on signing, 50% on publication. For all other content types: 100% on publication. Payment is made via ACH or wire transfer within 14 days of invoice.

Yes, always — both verbally in the video and in the description, in compliance with FTC and YouTube requirements.

Maybe — but probably not. Putting a brand name in the title generally kills click-through rate because it reads as a paid ad. However, if your product is a major, highly-anticipated launch with keywords already ranking at the top of YouTube search, we'll absolutely test variants that include it. We A/B test multiple titles, and the best performer is always chosen regardless of brand preference.

Yes, absolutely. The license we grant covers embedding the original video on your product/marketing pages and running Google or YouTube ads targeting the original video link.

Absolutely! You are welcome to embed the original video, hosted from our channel, directly on any sales page you like, as long as you do not download and re-upload it.

Generally, no — but it's negotiable. Starting rates are an additional 50% of the deal size for a 3-month license.

One or two shots — no problem. More than that is a separate negotiation.

We typically keep the product, except in special cases like very expensive items. That said, we're perfectly happy to return it if you'd prefer.

Sponsors cover shipping plus any customs/import fees to Israel.

Sponsors cover any customs or import fees in addition to shipping costs.

Yes! We offer a complete, interactive dashboard to sponsors where you can track clicks, views, comments, and even viewer sentiment. You can also request detailed performance analytics, demographics, and click statistics once every 30 days.
