Question

What's the aim the YouTube Moderation Integration?

Answer

Given that a lot of social media is not moderated for toxicity, and not every platform has enough human moderation resources, or automated systems, we thought it would be useful to bring that capability directly to the user to improve their audiences' channel experience.


We address this by offering 2 main moderation features for YouTube:

  • Video comment moderation (semi-real time and at scheduled intervals)
  • Live chat comment moderation (semi-real time) 
    • Live chat replay

Question

Is my data secure?

Answer

Data is encrypted in transit and at rest and deleted after 30 days, we only keep data for false positive reporting, available in your Profanity Blocker Dashboard.

You can also check out our Privacy Policy.

Question

Any YouTube API limits?

Answer

During development and Alpha stages we will have a 10K quota limit for YouTube's Data API.

Internally we track quota usage per channel and grants everyone 1K (subject to change) quota usage very 24 hours

Question

How does pricing work?

Answer

Every channel will be given a service license, usage policy per licence still remains.

Given the YouTube API Data quota limitations we may have to adjust our pricing to fit the YouTube platform.

For example:

  • Pricing tiers just for the YouTube Moderation integration with higher API quota limits per channel
  • Custom OAuth apps per licence

The pricing model may/may not change, as we are actively developing this feature expansion and do not have any reference for typical YouTube API Data quota usage for a channel (and number of customers using it).


Question

What model do you recommend for my channel

Answer
