FAQs
Voice moderation, answered
Voice-native detection scores tone, intensity, and escalation directly in the audio, then routes events through custom rules and the AI Moderator. Across the four-layer pipeline, Lasso automates around 99.9% of moderation decisions and sends the remaining edge cases to human review with the audio clip, the signals, and the AI Moderator's read attached. Each human decision retrains the AI Moderator over time.
Voice moderation works across 18+ languages, and Lasso routes each session to the right language model automatically. Your custom rules apply per language, so a community's sensitivity and escalation thresholds carry over wherever your players speak.

Lasso runs Modulate's voice-native ToxMod for real-time detection, then routes every voice event through the same custom rules engine, AI Moderator, and human review queue as your text and image content. Instead of a standalone classifier, you get one pipeline, one set of rules, and one queue across all your content types.

Voice moderation = real-time live voice chat (gaming, voice calls), voice-native detection. Audio transcription = async audio (voice notes, podcasts, audio rooms), transcribe-and-classify pipeline. Same backend, different content types and delivery methods.
Voice-native detection sees tone, intensity, and escalation patterns directly. Sarcasm, baiting, dogwhistles, and grooming indicators register in the audio signal before the words are transcribed. Lasso runs voice-native; Lasso routes those signals into the four-layer pipeline.
Verbal harassment, hate speech, threats, intimidation, grooming patterns, and escalation between users. Coordinated voice raids and behavioural patterns across user history detected. Your custom rules apply to each voice event.
Out of the box, no coding required. Sign up for Lasso, configure your rules, start moderating. Voice events appear in the same queue as your text and image moderation.
