⚠️ Risk Analysis & Mitigation
Critical Risks
1. Algorithm Dependency (HIGH RISK)
Risk: 85% of revenue depends on Google/YouTube organic traffic. Algorithm changes can severely impact visibility and revenue.
Historical Precedent:
- Google Core Updates (2023): Health sites saw 30-60% traffic volatility
- YouTube AI Content Policy (2024): Automated channels faced demonetization
Mitigation Strategy:
- Content Quality Focus: Invest in E-E-A-T compliance (medical review, citations)
- Diversification: Target 60% Google / 30% YouTube / 10% social by Year 3
- Direct Traffic: Build email list and brand (reduce organic dependency to 70%)
- Affiliate Focus: 40-50% revenue from affiliates (less algorithm-sensitive)
- Continuous Monitoring: Daily traffic analysis with automated alerts
Residual Risk: MEDIUM (after mitigation)
2. YouTube Automation Detection (HIGH RISK)
Risk: YouTube’s AI detection can identify mass-automated content and demonetize channels or suspend accounts.
Reality Check: Multiple channels strategy is NOT foolproof. YouTube uses sophisticated signals (IP addresses, upload patterns, content fingerprinting, metadata analysis).
Mitigation Strategy:
- Quality over Quantity: Target 5-10 videos/day total (not per channel)
- Human Review: Every video reviewed by content team before upload
- Varied Production: Different narration styles, editing patterns, thumbnail designs
- Compliance First: Transparent AI-generated content disclosure (per YouTube policy 2024)
- Conservative Launch: Pilot with 2-3 channels, monitor for 6 months before scaling
Residual Risk: MEDIUM-HIGH (YouTube remains unpredictable)
3. Content Quality & Medical Misinformation (MEDIUM RISK)
Risk: AI-generated medical content could contain inaccuracies, leading to user harm, regulatory issues, or platform bans.
Mitigation Strategy:
- Medical Review: All content reviewed by licensed health professionals
- Citation Requirements: Every medical claim linked to authoritative sources
- Disclaimer Implementation: Clear AI-generation disclosure + medical advice disclaimer
- Continuous Auditing: Random sample review (10% of content monthly)
- Insurance: Professional liability insurance for health content
Residual Risk: LOW (with proper review process)
4. LLM API Cost Volatility (MEDIUM RISK)
Risk: API pricing changes could increase costs by 2-5x, destroying unit economics.
Mitigation Strategy:
- Multi-Provider: 5 LLM providers (easy switching)
- Local Inference: Ollama fallback for 30-40% of content (fixed cost)
- Cost Monitoring: Real-time dashboard with automatic model switching
- Contract Negotiation: Volume discounts with primary providers (OpenAI, Anthropic)
Residual Risk: LOW
5. Competitive Response (MEDIUM RISK)
Risk: Established players (Tua Saúde, Minha Vida) adopt similar AI strategies.
Mitigation Strategy:
- 18-24 Month Tech Lead: Proprietary orchestration system
- Execution Speed: Reach 50k articles before competitors scale AI
- Multi-Language Moat: International expansion (EN/FR markets)
- Brand Building: Establish authority while competitors test AI
Residual Risk: MEDIUM
6. Regulatory Changes (LOW-MEDIUM RISK)
Risk: ANVISA or other health regulators impose restrictions on health content.
Mitigation Strategy:
- Legal Counsel: Ongoing regulatory monitoring
- Conservative Approach: Focus on educational content (not medical advice)
- Compliance Budget: R$ 200k for legal/compliance in seed round
Residual Risk: LOW
