Text Moderation API

Keep your platform safe with intelligent text moderation. Our API identifies harmful content while understanding context, so you can protect your community without over-filtering legitimate conversations.

Text Moderation API

User-generated content is the heart of online communities, but with millions of posts, comments, and messages, keeping things safe and positive can feel overwhelming:

  • Protect Your Reputation: One harmful post can damage years of building trust with your audience
  • Legal Protection: Platforms can face liability for hosting certain types of harmful content
  • User Safety: Your community deserves protection from harassment, hate speech, and toxic behavior
  • Scale Challenge: Manual moderation doesn’t work when you’re handling thousands of posts every day
  • Consistency Issues: Human moderators might handle similar content differently, creating unfair experiences
  • Cost Control: Hiring enough human moderators to handle large volumes gets expensive fast

Traditional content filters miss nuance and context, leading to false positives that frustrate users and false negatives that let harmful content slip through. You need moderation that actually understands what people are saying.

Find Harmful Content Accurately

Our context-aware AI understands when language is actually harmful versus just colorful, reducing false positives that can frustrate human moderators.

See Where Issues Are

Pinpoint exactly which words or sentences triggered the flag, so you can review efficiently and take targeted action.

Choose Your Focus

Pick which types of content to monitor from 10 categories - toxic content, profanity, hate speech, harassment, violence, self-harm, drug usage, firearms, and more - based on your community’s needs.

Explain What's Wrong

Get clear explanations for why content was flagged, not just vague category labels. Make confident moderation decisions.

We’re taking text understanding to a new level. Our moderation API doesn’t just scan for keywords - it actually comprehends meaning and context to make smarter decisions about what’s truly harmful.

Unlike basic keyword filters, our AI understands when potentially sensitive language is being used appropriately versus when it’s meant to harm.

  • Reduces False Positives: Discussions about medical topics, news events, or educational content won’t get wrongly flagged
  • Catches Subtle Harassment: Identifies harmful intent even when no explicit words are used
  • Understands Nuance: Recognizes the difference between reporting violence and promoting it
  • Protects Legitimate Content: Academic papers, news articles, and educational content stay safe

Choose exactly what types of content you want to monitor. Our system identifies harmful content across 10 different categories:

  • Toxic Content: Harmful language that insults, demeans, or degrades to cause emotional harm
  • Profanity: Explicit language, profanity, or vulgar expressions
  • Hate Speech: Content promoting hatred, discrimination, or prejudice against groups
  • Harassment: Bullying, intimidation, or targeted harassment content
  • Self-Harm: Content promoting self-injury, suicide, or other forms of self-harm
  • Adult Content: Sexually explicit or suggestive material inappropriate for minors
  • Violence: Content depicting, promoting, or threatening violence or dangerous activities
  • Drugs: Content related to illegal drug use, drug trafficking, or substance abuse
  • Firearms: Content related to weapons, firearms, or other dangerous implements
  • Cybersecurity: Potential security threats, malicious content, or cyber attack material
