Akismet, which works on any content management system, is a service that offers real-time filtering of spam from comments, form submissions, trackbacks, and chat system messages. It is used by approximately 100 million websites, including some of the largest publishers in the world. Since its inception in 2005, Akismet has blocked approximately 542 billion pieces of spam with 99.99% accuracy. It is considered the most accurate, intelligent, and user-friendly anti-spam product on the market today.

Arwen’s social media moderation service swiftly removes unwanted comments from social channels before they go public. Its AI detects 24 types of unwanted content, including spam and racism, across different content types (text, emojis, images, gifs, and videos). With the capability to identify toxic content in 29 different languages, Arwen provides global protection that’s unmatched. By identifying trolls that deter followers, Arwen helps users take back control of their social channels. Arwen’s technology is already available on major platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube) and is coming soon to LinkedIn and Reddit.
