AI content label
Semut Live shows a "✦ AI Host" label on the video by default. If you turn it off, you must disclose the AI content on the platform yourself:
🤖 Shopee: there is no dedicated AI label switch — state "AI host" clearly in the live title or description.
Platforms such as Facebook & YouTube require disclosure of realistic AI content. If the label is off, make sure you turn on the 'AI-generated' label in the platform's own settings — accounts can be restricted if it isn't disclosed. Terms: Platform Actions
Tips
- A Shopee stream key may be valid for one session only — update it before every live. We send a reminder 60 minutes before start.
- Add the same products to the Shopee Live session so buyers can tap the yellow bag.
