AI-Powered Real-Time Moderation for Safer Live Streaming

Live streaming has become a powerful medium for communication, entertainment, and business — but it also introduces significant challenges around safety, compliance, and brand reputation. Even a few seconds of inappropriate or illegal content can damage your platform’s credibility and user trust.

The Moderator Plugin for Ant Media Server, developed by Streamtoolbox enables continuous, automated content moderation directly inside your streaming workflow. Designed for scale and precision, it empowers platforms to detect, analyze, and act on problematic content in real time, without human intervention or manual delays.

Safeguard Your Streams Without Sacrificing Performance

Manual moderation of live broadcasts is not only time-consuming but also nearly impossible to scale. The Moderator Plugin introduces a fully automated AI-based solution that continuously inspects video feeds and reacts instantly when inappropriate visuals are detected.

This means you can maintain a safe, compliant environment for your users — while ensuring uninterrupted, high-quality viewing experiences for legitimate streams.

Whether you’re running a social video app, e-learning platform, gaming service, or live event portal, the Moderator Plugin offers a dependable layer of security that works silently in the background.

Real Savings, Real Impact
  • Up to 40% Lower Bitrate: Reduce bandwidth usage without degrading quality.
  • Lower CDN and Storage Costs: Pay less for delivery and long-term video storage.
  • Improved Viewer Experience: Faster loading, fewer stalls, and higher quality even at low bitrates.

Moderator Plugin use case

What does the Moderator Plugin do?

The plugin constantly monitors input streams from your Ant Media Server, using advanced computer vision and AI classification to identify pre-defined categories of restricted or unsafe content, such as:

  • Nudity and sexual content

  • Violence or graphic imagery

  • Drug or weapon-related visuals

  • Other prohibited visuals defined by your platform policies

Once the plugin detects a violation, it executes your preferred moderation response automatically — all in real time.

Key Capabilities

Real-Time Intervention

Instantly stop a broadcast or block a stream the moment a violation is detected. This ensures harmful content never reaches your audience.

Automated Alerts and Webhooks

Trigger alerts, push notifications, or backend API calls through custom webhooks. Integrate moderation data directly into your internal tools, dashboards, or admin systems.

Evidence Capture

Automatically capture and store frames containing flagged content as proof for compliance audits, manual review, or appeals.

Flexible Configuration

Define your own categories, thresholds, and actions to align the plugin with your moderation policies and brand standards.
