Takedown review: $39 per stage name, promo clips kept

What the Takedown creator plan includes

The creator plan costs $39 per stage name a month.

• Unlimited DMCA requests and bulk URL uploads.
• Fake account removal and Google and Bing delisting.
• Full anonymity: Takedown files as the agent, so your legal name stays off the notice.
• A weekly report, with first Google removals announced within 24 hours and manual requests handled within 24 hours.

The first seven days are free with no credit card, and setup only needs your stage name or profile link. The affiliate program pays 10% of every payment from referred users for life, by card, PayPal, Paxum, crypto or as service credit, and is open to webmasters and bloggers.

Keep the clips that sell, remove the rest

Takedown’s pitch is that some copies bring in subscribers and others steal them. You keep short clips and teasers that point back to your page, take down full videos and whitelist affiliates and authorized sites. Under the terms, Takedown lists what it finds and confirms it with you against agreed criteria before acting, unless you choose to automate. For pirate tubes that post fake promo clips, Takedown says it checks by hand whether the content is complete before going after the whole domain.

Takedown for studios and platforms

A studio leaves its email and brand name and gets a free audit within 48 hours, then a quote. Takedown tracks mirrors, clones and domain switches and says it removes whole domains from Google. Platforms and agencies can plug into its REST API, with bulk submission of thousands of notices in one call, or resell the service under their own domain, logo and prices. Takedown also sells brand protection outside adult, for iGaming, publishing and crypto.

Who runs Takedown

Takedown is operated by Marefeat Ltd, a company incorporated in Belize, at New Horizon Building in Belize City. Either side can end the agreement with 48 hours’ notice. Fees paid are non-refundable unless agreed, the right of withdrawal ends once service starts, and chargebacks are not to be used in place of a refund request.

Its performance claims are inconsistent: a 98% success rate on the home page and 99% on the API page, 144 million requests filed on one page and 2 million notices processed on another, 150 platforms here and 200 websites there. It quotes a 3-hour median removal time while the same page says most results come down within days, and calls itself number one for adult content blocking without outside evidence.
