Company mission

Checkstep's mission is to provide A.I. driven tools to scale the Trust and Safety operations of online platforms by increasing the effectiveness and well-being of their moderation teams.

Our take

Content moderation is a vital way of keeping Internet spaces safe, but it can be a time-consuming and laborious process. Checkstep leverages AI and machine learning to solve this problem.

Checkstep is headed up by a former Facebooker, which has lent the company considerable digital credibility. The company predominantly targets enterprises and social media networks, which has proven to be a lucrative market, especially as public concerns over online abuse continue to rise.
