No waiting on the user flow.

New profiles, photos, and first messages are moderated in real time, so users start swiping the moment they sign up. Moderation keeps pace when signups spike 10x, so onboarding never stalls behind a verification queue.

Profiles, bios, photos, videos, usernames, and Q&A prompts. Every piece runs through the same pipeline and lands in the same review queue, with its own automation per content type.

Per-brand configuration on one account.

Run every brand on one Lasso account, each with its own rules, word lists, severity thresholds, escalation routes. A casual hookup app and a serious-relationship brand can moderate to different standards, side by side.

Every dating moderation workflow, all in one dashboard.

Seven dating-specific features, natively included in Lasso.

Bios, photos, usernames, and Q&A prompts moderated at every change, before a profile goes live.

Reverse image search catches stock and reused photos lifted across profiles, so one catfish can't run ten accounts on the same face.

The same face across many accounts, and known banned users, flagged on the photos they upload.

Likely-underage faces in profile photos surfaced for review before the account can match.

Phone numbers, addresses, and socials caught in bios and messages, and read out of photos with OCR.

Handles and invite links that pull matches to WhatsApp, Telegram, Snap, or OnlyFans, flagged in messages and bios.

Flags from other users hide a profile or message and trigger a review of the account.

Frequently asked questions

Questions on dating moderation.

Lasso screens every new account and message for the patterns behind dating fraud: stolen or reused photos caught with reverse image search, invented identities, fast trust-building followed by a money request, and pushes to move off-platform. Suspect accounts are held for review before they can reach more users, and confirmed fraud rings are flagged across every brand on your account.

Lasso estimates age from profile photos and flags likely-minor faces, alongside stated ages under 18 and language that suggests a minor. Matches are held for review before the account can interact, and any child sexual abuse material is routed to the NCMEC CyberTipline. Age detection runs separately from identity checks, so a real adult is not blocked by a strict photo.

Yes. Reverse image search fingerprints every uploaded photo and matches it against images already seen across the platform and known stock and scam sources. When the same face turns up on several accounts, those profiles are surfaced together, so one catfish running ten profiles on one photo is caught early.

Lasso detects phone numbers, email addresses, home addresses, social handles, and QR codes in messages and bios, and reads them out of photos with OCR. It also catches the nudge to move to WhatsApp, Telegram, or Snap. You decide whether a match is redacted, blocked, or sent to review, so genuine couples can swap numbers when you allow it while scam and spam pushes are stopped.

Lasso moderates dating content in 200+ languages, with custom word lists per language. Slang, transliteration, and mixed-language messages run against normalized variants, so the same rules apply whether someone writes in English, Tagalog, or a mix. In the review queue, each flagged message appears translated beside the original, so your team can act without reading the source language.

Yes. Many dating operators run several brands on one Lasso account, and each carries its own word lists, severity thresholds, and escalation routes. A casual hookup app and a serious-relationship brand can moderate to different standards at the same time, with region-specific overlays on top for local rules.

No. Lasso moderates new profiles, photos, and first messages in real time, so users can start swiping the moment they sign up. Moderation runs alongside the user flow rather than gating it, and holds that speed when signups spike, so onboarding never stalls behind a review queue.

Default rule sets go live on day one, so moderation runs from the moment you connect. Custom models train on your labeled platform data within two weeks, tuned to the slang, scam scripts, and evasion patterns specific to your platform and brands.

Lasso keeps the records these regulations ask for. It logs every moderation decision and produces transparency reports, which map to DSA and UK Online Safety Act duty-of-care obligations. For GDPR it fulfils data export and deletion requests. CSAM matches route to the NCMEC CyberTipline. The tooling supports your compliance; your team owns the policy.
