Content moderation
Trust & Safety
Trust and safety only holds up when it is consistent — the same judgement applied whether a queue is quiet or a moderation event is breaking across it, and the people reviewing it kept well enough to sustain that.

The work
The work that keeps your platform trusted
Staffed as an afterthought, moderation becomes the risk it was meant to contain.
Moderation is where reputational risk lives — and it is too often staffed as an afterthought. Canaan runs it as a discipline: policy-mapped queues, auditable decisions, and real duty of care for the people reviewing.
Our approach
Run as a discipline, not an afterthought
Any call traces back to the rule behind it.
Every queue starts from your policy, mapped into a decision tree reviewers work from — so any call traces back to the rule behind it. AI triages ahead of them, a named human owns every escalation and appeal, and a real duty-of-care model surrounds the people doing the work.
