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.

With funding raised in 2026, the company plans to accelerate product development and commercial operations. It's aiming for the international market as well, planning to scale its infrastructure to new regions and regulations.
