Two moderation checks are optional: the NSFW label and text moderation. You can disable either one if it does not fit your use case. The API skips a disabled check entirely, which saves cost and latency. For image and video jobs, the AI Adult General prohibited-content check always runs and cannot be disabled. It is the only source of the is_prohibited decision on those jobs, so disabling either optional check still leaves them fully covered. See moderation categories. Text jobs work differently: they have no image or video to evaluate, so their is_prohibited decision comes from the text check alone. Disabling the text toggle therefore removes the only check those jobs have, and every text job passes. Audio jobs are checked on their transcript by the same text check, but that check is not covered by the text toggle and always runs. By default, both optional checks are enabled.

​
Where to configure

Open the Moderation page in the customer dashboard. Each check appears as a tile with a toggle. Changes are saved immediately and apply to all subsequent jobs.

How disabled checks behave

  • nsfw disabled: the NSFW check is skipped and the nsfw field is omitted from the job result and the webhook payload. The prohibited decision is unaffected.
  • text disabled: the text check is skipped for text jobs, and with it every custom category. Those jobs have no other check, so every one of them passes. Image, video, and audio jobs are unaffected. Audio still runs the same check on its transcript, custom categories included.

​
Custom categories

Custom categories have their own enable/disable flag, set per category rather than through this endpoint. An enabled category runs on image, video, text and audio, but the text toggle still wins over it. With text disabled, text jobs run no check at all, so the API evaluates none of your custom categories on them. See custom categories.

​
API access

You can also read and update your toggles from the API.

​
Read current settings

The enabled_categories object contains only the checks you have explicitly disabled. Anything missing is enabled. The catalogue provides human-readable labels and descriptions for each toggle.

​
Update settings

The body must be a JSON object, and it replaces your whole configuration. Allowed keys are nsfw and text; values must be booleans. Any other key returns 400 INVALID_REQUEST. Sending an empty object {} resets both checks back to their default (enabled).
