To create a safer more inclusive voice chat experience for all.
Desirable
Anyone who has played a multiplayer online game knows it can be a free-for-all when it comes to toxic, hate-filled, abusive, and ultimately harmful speech. Modulate is attempting to take on in-game toxic speech, and even potentially predatory behavior, with its AI-powered software ToxMod.
Despite the monumental task at hand, where chat moderation risks creating an over-policed online community, Modulate asserts that its AI can distinguish between friendly banter and sinister chat. ToxMod boasts users like PokerStars VR, Rec Room, and Gun Raiders, with the company hinting at undisclosed high-profile customers. A strategic mode towards Metaverse-based game studios aligns well with the booming growth of the Metaverse gaming industry, projected at around 40% annual growth.
In a notable development, Modulate has recently forged a partnership with Activision Blizzard, signaling a more substantial role in combatting voice chat toxicity within the gaming giant's titles. This strategic alliance underscores Modulate's commitment to fostering a safer more positive online gaming environment.
