Scenioo — last updated 10 September 2026
Scenioo is a YouTube channel about how the physical world works. Its videos are assembled and uploaded by a personal automation tool, which appears on the Google consent screen as faceless. That tool is used by one person, the channel's owner, to publish to their own channel and to read that channel's own statistics. It has no other users and is not offered as a service to anyone else.
When the owner signs in with Google, the application requests these permissions, and uses each one only for the purpose given:
youtube.upload) — to upload finished videos to the owner's
own channel and set their title, description, tags and thumbnail. Uploads
default to private; making a video public is always a manual step.
youtube.readonly) — to list the owner's own videos so their
performance can be reviewed.
yt-analytics.readonly) — to read view counts, watch time and
audience retention for the owner's own videos, so the owner can tell which
videos worked.
spreadsheets) — to read and update one spreadsheet the owner
created, which holds the production queue: topic, title, script and status
for each video.
The application runs on the owner's own computer and, for scheduled runs, on a GitHub Actions runner. Google credentials are stored as a token file on that machine and as an encrypted repository secret. They are not transmitted anywhere else.
Video files, scripts and statistics are kept on the owner's own machine and in the owner's own Google account. No database of user information exists, because there are no users other than the owner.
Videos are assembled from stock footage supplied by Pexels and Pixabay, narration generated locally, and music licensed CC0 from Openverse. Illustrations may be generated through Cloudflare Workers AI. These services receive search terms and prompts; they receive no personal information.
The application's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
The owner may revoke the application's access at any time from Google Account permissions. Doing so immediately ends all access. The stored token can be deleted by removing the token file from the machine, which the owner controls directly.
