Our approach

We're not an editing agency. We run the whole channel.

A typical agency sells hours and hands back files. MINT takes over the work that actually moves a channel: topic research, scripting, editing, packaging, testing and compliance. You stay the owner, and our fee is tied partly to how the channel performs.

Typical editing agency
  • ✕You pick the topics and hope they work
  • ✕Paid per video, whatever the result
  • ✕Editing only; strategy is on you
  • ✕Little testing or analytics
  • ✕Compliance risk sits with you
MINT done-for-you service
  • ✓Niche chosen through a formal feasibility review
  • ✓Part of our pay depends on performance: 40% of net profit after eligible costs, 60% to you
  • ✓Strategy, writing, editing and packaging under one team
  • ✓Every upload is a test with a hypothesis and a result
  • ✓Every video checked for originality, and we never ask for your password

Results

Real numbers from channels we've worked on.

Our team writes, edits and packages long-form videos for channels in competitive, fast-moving niches. We know what makes a viewer click, what keeps them watching past the first minute, and how one strong video can carry a whole channel. These YouTube Studio screenshots come from channels we've worked on. Names, thumbnails and titles are blurred to protect our clients. Every figure is shown exactly as YouTube reports it.

Cost comparison

What this would cost you elsewhere.

Hiring an editor, a scriptwriter and a thumbnail designer separately adds up before you pay for strategy, testing or compliance. Here is the production cost alone, compared with MINT.

How we calculated this, and sources

US figures are typical published US freelance rates for a 10-minute video (about $70–$215 per finished minute). Asian online freelancer figures are our estimates, built from published Philippines-based rates (long-form edits roughly $50–$150 per video, scripts roughly $30–$150, thumbnails roughly $10–$30) and vary widely with experience. MINT's per-video figure divides the $3,500 setup fee across the target of about 4 videos per month for 12 months (about $7.29 per finished minute). Video counts are targets, not guarantees. It excludes MINT's 40% share of net profit and eligible operating costs deducted from channel revenue. This comparison is not a guarantee of revenue or savings.

How it works

From setup to Year 2, stage by stage.

Growth year

With proven formats and a monetized channel, Year 2 is where revenue builds. Our estimate is $3,000–$5,000 a month in channel revenue. This is an estimate, not a guarantee.

  • Year-1 report issued
  • Year-2 plan agreed
  • Monthly profit reports
Fee flow · YouTube & TikTok

Costs come out first. Then we split.

Channel revenue first covers eligible operating costs. What remains is net profit, shared 60% to you and 40% to MINT. Eligible cost categories are agreed at onboarding and itemized in your monthly report. MINT staff salaries are never a cost line.

$3,000
You · 60%$1,800$21,600 a year

Compliance & access

Built to stay monetized.

Platforms reward original work and punish shortcuts. Your channel never depends on content you don't have the right to publish.

Safe access to your channel

You add us as a manager using YouTube's and TikTok's own settings, so we never need your password. You stay the owner and can remove us at any time.

FAQ

Straight answers.

The questions people ask before they apply. Full terms are on the Legal page.

Who owns the channel?

You do, at all times. The channel stays in your name. We work through the platform's own permission roles, never your password, and you can remove our access whenever you want.

What happens if I want to stop?

You keep the channel and every video published on it. How and when the service can end is set out in your signed service agreement. Either side can end it for a serious breach that isn't fixed within 30 days of written notice.

The setup fee is non-refundable, except under the Year-1 performance commitment. See Terms.

Who gets paid what?

YouTube: you pay a $3,500 one-time setup fee. Channel revenue then covers eligible operating costs agreed at onboarding. What's left is net profit: 60% goes to you and 40% to MINT, reported monthly.

TikTok: a $1,600 one-time setup fee, plus the same 60/40 split of net profit after eligible costs.

Can my TikTok account earn money?

That depends on TikTok, not on us. TikTok's monetization programs have their own eligibility rules for the account holder, including country of residence and age. We check this during the feasibility review, before you commit to anything.

When will the channel start earning?

Usually not in the first months. YouTube only pays ad revenue once a channel is accepted into the YouTube Partner Program, which has subscriber and watch-time thresholds. TikTok has its own eligibility rules. Most new channels spend their early months building toward those thresholds, which is why our revenue estimate is for Year 2.

How is this different from buying a channel?

Buying a channel means paying for an existing audience with a history you can't fully check, and it can carry old strikes or policy problems. With MINT, the channel is in your name from day one and is built from original content made for it.

Is revenue guaranteed?

No. The $3,000–$5,000 a month Year-2 figure is an estimate, not a promise. Channels can earn less than that, or nothing. What happens if Year 1 underperforms is set out in Legal & Disclosures.

About MINT

From content studio to full-service channel operator.

MINT began as a premium done-for-you content operation. What made channels earn was rarely the edit alone. It was the work around it: research, packaging, testing and discipline about costs. So we took on all of it.

Phase 1 · Origin

Done-for-you production

Premium scripting and editing for existing creators. High quality, but results still depended on the client's decisions.

Phase 2 · Now

Full-service channel operator

MINT runs strategy through upload, and part of our fee depends on how the channel performs.

Phase 3 · Building

Shared tools and analytics

Central analytics, testing tools and shared reporting, so every channel benefits from what we learn across all of them.

How our team works

A dedicated team for your channel, backed by the whole company.

Every channel gets its own small team of four people who work on it every week. Behind them, a support team checks every video for copyright and platform rules, and shares what's working on our other channels so your channel learns from all of them.

Legal & disclosures

Terms, eligibility & disclosures.

The plain-language rules behind our fees, performance share, Year-1 commitment, buyout and privacy. The signed service agreement governs if anything here conflicts with it.

◆ Draft terms · last updated October 20, 2026 · to be reviewed by qualified counsel before publication.

01Terms of service

These terms apply to services provided by MINT Automation ("MINT") to the client named in a signed service agreement ("Client"). Submitting an application requests a feasibility review only. No service relationship exists until both parties sign an agreement.

  • The Client remains the legal owner of the channel or account at all times. MINT operates it under delegated, platform-native permissions.
  • MINT may accept or decline any proposed niche, format or topic after its feasibility review, and may decline content it believes breaches platform policy or law.
  • Content produced by MINT is licensed to the Client for use on the channel. Templates, internal tools and methods remain MINT's property.
  • Either party may terminate for material breach on 30 days' written notice if the breach is not cured in that period.

02Fees & performance share

  • YouTube Done-for-You Service: $3,500 one-time setup fee, payable before production begins. Non-refundable except under the Year-1 performance commitment.
  • TikTok USA-Targeted Done-for-You Service: $1,600 one-time setup fee, non-refundable once production begins.
  • Performance share (YouTube and TikTok): channel revenue first covers eligible operating costs. Remaining net profit is distributed 60% to the Client and 40% to MINT, calculated and reported monthly.
  • Eligible operating costs are limited to categories agreed at onboarding and itemized in the Client's monthly report. MINT staff salaries are not an eligible cost.

03Year-1 performance commitment

The YouTube Done-for-You Service carries a Year-1 channel revenue target of $3,500, measured as platform-reported revenue for the 12 months after the first published video. This target is separate from the Year-2 revenue estimate shown elsewhere on this website. This is a target, not a guarantee of revenue. If the target is missed, an eligible Client may choose either a $1,500 partial refund of the setup fee or 12 more months of management with no new management fee. To be eligible, the Client must:

  1. Grant required channel access within 7 days of signing and keep it in place for the full 12 months.
  2. Respond to niche, script and content requests within 10 business days. Delays are handled under the Non-response terms below.
  3. Not delete, privatize or edit MINT-published content, or change channel settings, without MINT's written agreement.
  4. Not buy views, subscribers or engagement, or take any action that breaches platform terms.
  5. Keep the account in good standing and meet the platform's own monetization requirements.
  6. Submit a claim in writing within 30 days after the end of month 12.

The remedy is a one-time choice. Revenue lost to platform-wide policy changes, demonetization caused by the Client, or account actions outside MINT's control does not count against the target.

04Non-response

  • If the Client does not respond to a request requiring their action within 10 business days, MINT will send a written reminder.
  • If there is still no response 5 business days after the reminder, the production schedule and the 12-month commitment period pause until the Client responds.
  • If the Client is unresponsive for 30 consecutive days, the Year-1 commitment is void and MINT may suspend services. Fees already paid are not refunded.

05Buyout option after month 12

After month 12 you can buy out MINT's 40% share and run the channel yourself or with another team. The price is set by formula: 2× MINT's trailing 12-month earnings from the channel. After a buyout, MINT hands over all working files, templates and documentation and removes its channel access.

Example: if the channel's net profit over the last 12 months was $18,000, MINT's 40% share was $7,200, and the buyout price would be $14,400. A buyout and a Year-1 remedy cannot be combined for the same period.

06Platform compliance disclaimers

  • MINT Automation is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by YouTube, Google, TikTok or ByteDance. Platform names are used for identification only.
  • Platforms can change monetization rules, eligibility, algorithms and payout rates at any time. MINT does not control these decisions.
  • Monetization programs have their own eligibility rules, including country of residence and age, that apply to the account holder.
  • MINT does not use re-uploaded, unlicensed or mass-duplicated content, and will not operate a channel in breach of platform policies.

07Risk disclosure

Channel revenue is uncertain. The Year-2 figure of $3,000–$5,000 per month is an estimate, not a promise. Sample or illustrative figures on this website, including the cost comparison and fee-flow examples, do not predict future results. A channel may earn less than its costs, or nothing. Only spend what you can afford to lose. Nothing on this website is financial, investment, tax or legal advice.
