French startup BodyGuard recently launched its English-language app and service, so that it can hide harmful content from your eyes, having been available in French a few years ago and has so far attracted 50,000 users.
BodyGuard offers a solution for individuals and businesses to protect online communities and social media platforms from harmful online content, and is available free of charge to individuals and via a corporate API.
If you're somewhat popular across different social networks, you're likely to be subjected to hate speech in your responses or comments.
The service analyzes more than 5 million comments in real time each month and takes advantage of advanced technology that acts as a smart, stand-alone, advertising-free and cost-effective solution to oversee social media platforms.
"We've developed a technology that detects online hate speech with 90 to 95 percent accuracy with only 2 percent of false positives," said founder and CEO Charles Cohen.
The company has started a mobile app that anyone can use, and after downloading the app and connecting it to your favorite social networks, you choose the level of supervision.
There are several categories, such as insults, ridicule of physical appearance, moral harassment, sexual harassment, racism and homophobia, and you can determine whether the low priority or the highest priority for each group.
You won't have to open the app again, as BodyGuard scans replies and comments from its servers and decides whether everything is okay.
For example, the app can hide comments, mute users, block users, etc., andwhen You open Instagram or Twitter again, hateful comments seem to have never existed before.
BodyGuard currently supports Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and Twitch, and content cannot be processed via Snapchat and TechTalk at this time due to API restrictions.
Most supervisory services rely heavily on machine learning or keyword-based supervision.
BodyGuard has chosen a different way, cleaning the comment mathematically and trying to analyze the content of the comment in its context, and can determine whether the comment is offensive to you, an external person, or a group of people.
The startup recently launched The B2B product, and other companies can use a BodyGuard API to oversee real-time comments across their social platforms or in their own applications.
The company charges its customers with the traditional SaaS approach of offering software as a service.
