Scalable AI Content Moderation for Social Media

Content moderation for social media is arguably the most challenging task in Trust & Safety. Social media platforms need passionate moderators reinforced by powerful automated systems.

Spectrum Labs uses Contextual AI to help social media moderators spot hard-to-detect toxic behaviors which keyword-only systems don’t catch:

  • Radicalization and Extremism
  • Grooming and Sexual Exploitation
  • Bullying and Hate Speech

User-Level Moderation

Spectrum Labs features user-level moderation to pinpoint the small percentage of users who generally are responsible for the bulk of harmful content on social media. Through user-level moderation, Trust & Safety teams can scale automated action in real time against problematic users across any language.

Bullying and Harassment

Not all harmful behavior can be caught with keywords. Online bullying and harassment generally involves prolonged contact using language that may appear benign to moderation systems.

Spectrum Labs’ Contextual AI looks at user behavior patterns and interprets complex language to better detect online bullies who target victims with threats and insults.

Hate Speech

Today’s society doesn’t tolerate hate speech, and expects online platforms to take concrete steps against it.

Spectrum Labs can accurately detect and remove hate speech across multiple languages and dialects, as well as in 1337speak or other evasive online text.

Remove Hateful Content

81% of Americans want technology companies to provide more options for people to filter hateful or harassing content.(1)

Spam

Social media profiles, comments, and DMs get inundated with spam that disrupts users’ conversations, targets them for scams, or detours them off the platform.

Spectrum Labs can stop spam with accurate detection and automated action.

Self-Harm

Online platforms are often surprised to find self-harm being promoted or publicized within their community.

Spectrum Labs’ contextual AI can remove self-harm content using advanced behavior identification models and automated actioning to alert authorities or provide mental health resources when needed.

Online Radicalization and Extremism

Combating the rise of extremism requires powerful detection models that can parse complex behavior and language.

Spectrum Labs’ radicalization, threat and violence models root out online radicalization before it can spread across your platform. Spectrum’s Contextual AI can analyze nuances and detect conversations where bad actors groom prospects and plan offline violence, better protecting your platform from predatory users and potential legal liability.
