Moderation
Three layers of review

Every piece of content runs through hash-table matching, ML text filtering, and AWS Rekognition image scanning before it appears. Most violations are caught before anyone sees them.

Community tools
Creators control their space

Community owners set their own rules, manage members, and remove content. Moderation power lives with the people who built the community — not just the platform.

Reporting
Direct line to the safety team

In-app reporting sends concerns directly to our review queue. Every report is reviewed. Serious issues are escalated and addressed within 24 hours.
