Solutions / Content moderation
Content moderation that follows your rules, not someone else's.
Every platform draws the line somewhere different. Nyckel learns where you draw it — from the calls your team already makes — and applies it to every image and every message that arrives.
Why generic filters don't work
Same subject. Opposite answers.
Both of these are photos of a dog. One passes and one fails — and nothing about the subject explains why.
This is the whole argument for custom moderation. The obvious violations are the easy part. Your rules live in the cases a general-purpose model was never built to judge.
Images and text
The same thing works on what people write.
Why it's worth automating
What makes this hard by hand.
The rules are yours
What's fine on one platform gets someone banned on another. A general-purpose moderation API encodes somebody else's policy, not yours.
The hard cases are the point
Nobody needs help with the obvious violations. The value is in the ambiguous middle — and that's exactly the part a written policy captures worst.
Volume makes it expensive
Reviewing everything by hand doesn't scale. Reviewing nothing isn't an option either.
The line keeps moving
New tactics, new slang, new ways around the filter. A static model goes stale; one that retrains on your reviewers' corrections doesn't.
How it works
Three steps.
-
1
Show it your calls
Label a few examples the way your team would. The corrections your moderators already make every day are training data — you're not creating new work, you're capturing work that currently evaporates.
-
2
Set a confidence threshold
Auto-clear the confident approvals, auto-flag the confident violations, and send only the uncertain middle to a person. See tuning thresholds for how to pick the numbers.
-
3
Watch the queue shrink
Every reviewed item feeds the next retrain, so the band of cases needing human eyes narrows over time. Your reviewers spend their attention where it actually matters.
