Trusted moderation for a camera-first, real-time visual platform

One platform to scan visual content, enforce policies, and meet regulatory duties across camera posts, stories, short-video feeds, chat, and AR lenses, with audit-ready transparency.

  • Decide on visual content in seconds, not minutes, across surfaces.

  • Strengthen protections for younger users without slowing experiences.

  • Stay DSA and UK Online Safety Act ready with auditable decision trails.

THE CHALLENGE

Visual scale, ephemeral risk

Camera-first platforms move fast. Photos, videos, Stories, and lenses appear and disappear in seconds, while chat, comments, and creator content keep flowing. Regulators want consistent decisions, defensible records, and stronger protections for younger users without slowing the experience.

Magnifying glass 1 Speed of content

Camera posts, ephemeral stories, and AR lenses surface in seconds. Moderation has to keep pace without breaking the moment.

Magnifying glass 1 Younger user safety

Age assurance, grooming, sextortion, and drug content carry sharp regulatory focus and demand consistent, defensible action.

Magnifying glass 1 Audit readiness

DSA and UK OSA need traceable decisions, statement of reasons at scale, and transparency reports that hold up under review.
