A safe space for relationships to flourish. Keep your dating platform free from abuse, harassment and catfishing.

Online dating, real world dangers 

Every single day, online dating platforms deal with challenges ranging from harassment and bullying to serious threats like child exploitation and catfishing. These behaviors put individuals at risk of emotional and financial harm while also eroding the trust that lets your community thrive.

Left unresolved, these dangers can quickly escalate into user churn, legal issues and reputational damage. To safeguard both users and brand integrity, dating apps need effective and proactive moderation solutions.

Take user-level action to ban or suspend repeat offenders from your platform

Moderate at a content or user level to keep your platform safe from bad actors and catfishes. Checkstep tracks a user’s history with your platform, flagging past violations and offences, letting you make a decision on whether to remove just the content - or the user themselves.

  • Can you scan large volumes of data?

    Yes, Checkstep integrations require a small amount of engineering work to send Checkstep content via an API and to process the response from your AI scanning and policy. Customers can submit content without a technical integration but most systems require some integration to support end to end moderation.

  • Does your tool allow for user flagging?

    Yes – Checkstep has a User Reporting feature where users can report content and the content will be scanned by Checkstep, then the platform can decide whether to automatically action the content or send it for human review.

    Additionally, Checkstep also allows to scan User Profiles for certain violations. This is done by de-composing a profile into it’s different elements (profile picture, URLs, bio, PII, …) and scan each component and then aggregate this into a user-profile detection strategy.
