How does Bodyguard image moderation work?
1. Connect your sources
In minutes, connect Bodyguard to your social channels, platform, or UGC spaces. Once connected, image flows are centralized in the dashboard and ready to be analyzed.
2. Real-time visual analysis
Each image is reviewed instantly by our advanced vision models and LLMs. The goal isn’t just to detect one isolated element, but to understand what the image truly represents, even when it’s subtle, misleading, cropped, or out of context.
3. Text detection inside the image (OCR)
When an image contains text, Bodyguard extracts it automatically and analyzes it with the same depth as text moderation. Threats, hate messages, propaganda, and spam embedded inside visuals are detected reliably.
4. Custom rule configuration
Your standards aren’t everyone else’s. Choose the classifications relevant to your context (nudity, violence, hate symbols, logos, QR codes, faces…) and adjust thresholds according to your values, your community, and legal requirements.
5. Automated actions + continuous control
When a visual crosses your thresholds, Bodyguard acts instantly: deletion, masking, quarantine, flagging, and escalation to human review if needed.
You track risks over time, receive real-time alerts during spikes, and refine your rules continuously.
Simple setup to protect your spaces in minutes
Bodyguard connects natively to your social channels and integrates with your platform via API or webhooks.
Your flows of comments, messages, and content are automatically centralized in the dashboard, ready for comment moderation and chat moderation, with no technical workaround.
