How it works

OSmod (the ConversationAI Moderator) is Jigsaw's open source comment moderation tool, built with the New York Times. It pulls comments in, scores them with the Perspective API, and gives moderators a queue sorted by score with batch approve and reject, rules for auto approval, and tagging. It was used by the Times and others for newsroom comment moderation.

It's no longer actively developed, so treat it as a reference design or a base to fork.
