The challenge
Content moderation is the continuous monitoring and screening of user-generated content (including images, text, video and audio) with the application of a predetermined set of rules and guidelines to determine whether or not the content complies with community standards.
Platforms that promote the trust, safety and security of its users benefit from improved customer experiences, driving growth and increasing revenue. However, knowing how to scale content moderation globally, while efficiently managing multilingual postings and the nuances in language and cultural norms can be challenging.
Our client, a popular social networking site, offers a platform to share a variety of short-form, user-generated videos. The client was looking for a global partner with proven experience running employee wellness programs to address common content moderation and ad review challenges.
