Trust & safety infrastructure for live platforms

See everything.
Miss nothing.

Guardian is the AI content-moderation and compliance layer for live-streaming and user-generated platforms. It watches every stream, message, and upload the moment it happens — and leaves the audit trail your payment processors and regulators require.

✓Real-time
✓NCMEC-ready
✓Multi-tenant isolation
✓API-first
✓SOC 2-aligned

For high-risk platforms, harmful content is existential.

Not a UX problem — a legal, financial, and brand-ending one. Manual moderation doesn't scale across live, chat, and uploads, 24/7, in every language.

Live rooms, chat & uploads running at once
Human-only moderation can't watch every surface, everywhere, always.
How it works

Three surfaces. One system.

Content appears in three places on your platform. Guardian covers all three — so nothing goes public unseen.

Live streams

Every cam room, watched in real time

A background process runs alongside every active stream, sampling frames every 30 seconds and running them through the full detection stack — with room-health checks for black screens, absent models, and frozen feeds.

  • →Sub-minute frame sampling
  • →Instant moderator alerts
  • →Flagged frame preserved as evidence
  • →Third-party (streammate) rooms covered too
Chat

Every message, classified as it's sent

An LLM classifier scores public chat, private inbox, and private-live messages for grooming, harassment, hate, threats, self-harm, and scams — across languages, tuned to your policy.

  • →Grooming & minor-safety signals
  • →Harassment, hate & threats
  • →Scam & solicitation detection
  • →Multilingual, policy-configurable
Uploads

Every upload, reviewed before it's public

Photos, video, and voice are scanned at the point of publication. Nothing goes live unseen — flagged content is held for human review with confidence scores attached.

  • →Pre-publish image & video review
  • →Age estimation on every face
  • →Prohibited objects & behaviours
  • →Voice-note analysis

“Nothing goes public unseen.”

Detection depth

What Guardian catches

Tunable confidence thresholds. No silent auto-removal — AI flags, your moderators decide.

👤

Potential minors

CRITICAL

AI age-range estimation flags any apparent underage individual instantly for human review.

🚫

CSAM escalation

CRITICAL

Suspected child-safety material is routed for mandatory NCMEC CyberTipline reporting.

👥

Multiple persons

HIGH

A verified creator plus an unverified second person entering frame is flagged, with a tunable confidence threshold.

🔫

Prohibited objects

HIGH

Weapons, drug paraphernalia, and other banned items detected frame-by-frame.

🐾

Animals & pets

HIGH

Animal presence in adult content flagged against your content policy.

⚠️

Prohibited behaviours

HIGH

Intoxication indicators, unconscious persons, and other policy-defined risk states.

💬

Chat harms

MEDIUM

Grooming, harassment, hate speech, threats, self-harm, and scams — scored per message.

📋

Custom policy

MEDIUM

Fully configurable per platform. Your terms of service, enforced automatically.

AI does the watching. Your team does the deciding.

Detections land in a clean review queue with evidence and confidence scores — one click to dismiss, warn, suspend, remove, or escalate. Signal, not noise.

Compliance & provability

Provable safety — not just detection.

For adult, live, and UGC platforms, catching harm isn't enough. You have to prove what you caught and what you did about it — to payment processors, auditors, and regulators.

Guardian generates that documentation as a byproduct of moderation: every decision logged, every piece of evidence preserved, every report export-ready.

Security & architecture

Enterprise-grade by construction

Built multi-tenant from day one, so onboarding a new site is a configuration step — not a migration.

Tenant isolation
Row-level security scopes every record to its platform. One deployment, hard boundaries between sites.
Signed webhooks
HMAC-signed outbound events; inbound API keys are hashed at rest, never stored in plain text.
Evidence access control
Flagged frames live in private storage, reachable only through short-lived presigned links.
Full audit trail
Every action attributable and exportable — the record a regulator or processor asks for.
The category

The only complete solution

No existing product combines live-stream monitoring, chat, upload moderation, adult-platform tuning, and compliance reporting.

Why now

Trust & safety moved from cost-center to launch requirement.
