What is Dailymotion
A brief history behind Dailymotion’s journey from one of the first HD video platforms to becoming one of the biggest video streaming platforms in the world, with more than a hundred million visitors every month
Dailymotion Way
In March 2005, Benjamin Bejbaum and Olivier Poitrey founded Dailymotion – a video-sharing platform that quickly gained traction and interest from viewers, creators, and investors. Their vision was to create an online space where users could effortlessly share, explore, and engage with video content.
By February 2008, Dailymotion had positioned itself as a game-changer by supporting high-definition video resolution at 720p, making it one of the first HD video platforms ever.
Fast forward to 2015, and the dynamic video-sharing platform found a new home under the ownership of Vivendi, a prominent French media holding company.
Today, Dailymotion has evolved into a global video streaming service, connecting 350 million creators and consumers worldwide.
However, like many platforms with user-generated content, Dailymotion faces legal challenges. Unauthorized uploads of copyrighted content have contributed to Dailymotion piracy, creating challenges for rights holders. KyteScan scans Dailymotion in one click, helping detect unauthorized content across one of the largest video-sharing platforms.

Dailymotion Copyright Policy
Dailymotion Policy states that the company does not permit copyright infringements on its platform. Alongside Dailymotion ContentID and other copyright protection measures, the platform can remove infringing content when properly notified by rights holders.
Dailymotion also can block a User’s account, if they repeatedly upload illegal content.
Copyright complaints are accepted through a dedicated form on the Dailymotion website. All the requests should only be sent by the copyright owner or an agent authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.
Based on WebKyte team experience, Dailymotion takes up to 1 hour on average to remove reported content.
Dailymotion ContentID and copyright protection tools
Since 2015, the platform has continued to improve its copyright protection tools by investing in fingerprinting technologies. Dailymotion video detection helps identify copyrighted content, while audio fingerprinting can recognize matching soundtracks. However, audio-based detection alone may miss altered video copies, such as redubbed content where the original audio has been replaced.
