Question 1

What is Trigunatita?

Accepted Answer

Trigunatita is YouTube channel insurance. It takes every video you upload, publishes it to your primary YouTube channel, and mirrors a private copy to a backup channel on a separate Google account. The original file is archived in cold storage so you can restore to a new channel if both are lost.

Question 2

Why not just download my videos with Google Takeout?

Accepted Answer

Google Takeout only works while you still control the account. The moment your channel is terminated, Takeout is gone with it. Trigunatita mirrors continuously to an account you also control, so the backup exists before disaster — not after.

Question 3

Will YouTube flag the backup channel for duplicate content?

Accepted Answer

Backup uploads are always private. YouTube's duplicate-content and spam systems operate on publicly visible content. A private archive on a channel you own is not public duplication. We still recommend keeping the backup channel otherwise active with distinct public content over time.

Question 4

What happens if my primary channel is terminated?

Accepted Answer

The backup channel on your second Google account still has every video, private. You can republish selectively, export, or use the cold archive to seed a new channel. Your audience rebuilding starts from a position of ownership, not zero.

Question 5

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Creator tier is ₹1,599 per month (roughly $19) with one backup channel and ninety-day cold archive. Pro is ₹3,999 with two backups, year-long archive, and priority support. Studio is ₹11,999 for agencies and multi-channel operators.

Question 6

Is this legal and within YouTube's terms?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Trigunatita uses the sanctioned YouTube Data API v3 with your explicit OAuth consent on both channels. We never scrape, never bypass quota, and never store your Google password. You revoke access anytime in your Google account settings.

Question 7

What does Trigunatita not protect against?

Accepted Answer

If both channels are terminated simultaneously (rare, but possible for severe TOS violations), the private mirror is lost. The cold archive in our storage survives that case and lets you republish to a new channel. We also cannot intercept uploads made directly from the YouTube mobile app — upload through Trigunatita instead.

Question 8

Who built this and why?

Accepted Answer

I'm Meru. My previous YouTube channel was terminated with no clear cause — likely a false 'invalid traffic' flag. Four years of videos gone, no backup. I built Trigunatita so the next creator doesn't open that email with nothing in reserve.
