What does the Comment Moderation API do?

The Simple Comment Moderation API scores text for policy violations and toxic language so you can auto-hold, flag, or reject UGC before human moderators review it. Integrate at post time in forums, chat apps, and review widgets.

Use cases

  • Community forum pre-moderation
  • Product review filtering
  • Live chat safety pipelines
  • Marketplace listing descriptions
