Rules it was built with
  • Every moderation action includes timestamps for reception, review start, decision, and closure.
  • Each record is traceable to a unique content ID and moderator ID.
  • Escalations are flagged and tracked with escalation reasons.
  • All actions are classified by content type and flagged policy category.
  • Compliance checkboxes indicate whether regulatory guidelines were followed at each step.
