Hive Moderation is an AI-powered content moderation product suite that detects and helps manage unsafe or policy-violating content across text, image, video, and audio. It combines per-modality deep-learning models, a multimodal Vision Language Model, and a human-review dashboard. Homepage: https://hivemoderation.com/

## Core Moderation Products

Per-modality moderation models, each exposed as an API.

- [Visual Moderation](https://hivemoderation.com/visual-moderation): Image and video moderation for detecting NSFW, violence, drugs, hate imagery, and other policy-violating visual content. Use when the input is images or video.
- [Text Moderation](https://hivemoderation.com/text-moderation): Text moderation that goes beyond keyword matching to detect explicit abuse, indirect threats, coded language, and evasive phrasing. Use when the input is text.
- [Audio Moderation](https://hivemoderation.com/audio-moderation): Audio moderation with transcription, unsafe-speech detection, and language identification. Use for spoken content in audio or video, including live voice chat.
- [Hive Vision Language Model (VLM)](https://hivemoderation.com/multimodal-language-model): Multimodal moderation across images, video, and text via a single API using prompt-defined policies. Detects sexual content, hate, drugs, graphic content, weapons, and other policy signals. Use as an alternative to combining per-modality models when a flexible, prompt-driven policy is preferred.

## Specialized Detection Models

Additional purpose-built detectors beyond core moderation.

- [AI-Generated & Deepfake Content Detection](https://hivemoderation.com/ai-generated-content-detection): Detect synthetic images, video, and audio with frame-by-frame AI-generated and deepfake detection with probability scores. Used for user verification, reducing AI slop in feeds, and flagging artificial or exploitative media.
- [Demographic Attributes](https://hivemoderation.com/demographic): Detect faces and classify attributes such as age and perceived gender across images and video. Supports moderation, policy enforcement, and compliance workflows.
- [IP & Publicity Detection](https://hivemoderation.com/ip-publicity-detection): Identify potentially infringing or unauthorized use of copyrighted media, public figures, fictional characters, and logos across images and video. Used for brand-integrity and rights-holder workflows.
- [CSAM Detection](https://thehive.ai/apis/csam-detection): Hive's API for identifying child sexual abuse material, part of the broader Hive Moderation product family (hosted on thehive.ai).

## Human Review & Workflow

- [Moderation Dashboard](https://hivemoderation.com/dashboard): All-in-one AI-powered Trust & Safety dashboard to review, prioritize, and take action on user-generated content. Used to define policies, route content, and manage enforcement alongside Hive's moderation model APIs.
