Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for closed loop confirmation of user generated content. A content management system filters user generated content from at least one content platform to identify content of interest. After content of interest is collected, the user may be asked for permission to use this content. Approval may be sought within the content platform, or may include a redirect to an external website. After approval has been collected, the content is marked as monetizable and provided to brand owners and advertisers for their usage. Additionally, statistics may be generated for the user indicating their approval ratios and their propensity to generate content of interest. These statistics may assist in determining which content should be filtered for in the future.
