What Checkstep is
Checkstep is a moderation back office: AI models triage content across formats, keyword rules catch the obvious, and human reviewers handle what machines cannot, all orchestrated in one platform.
What you can do with it
- Automate first-pass moderation
- Route uncertain content to humans
- Cover text, image, video, audio and live
- Configure policies per content type
- Document decisions for regulators
Who it is for
- Social and community platforms
- Gaming and live streaming products
- Teams facing DSA or Online Safety Act duties
What to watch out for
- Automated moderation misjudges context, dialect and satire; wrongly removed users need fast appeals
- Regulatory compliance is a programme, not a vendor checkbox; the tool supports your duties, it does not own them
- Model accuracy claims are self-reported; pilot on your actual content
- Keyword filters alone produce heavy false positives; balance with context models
