Tabu is an image and video moderation API that detects nudity and explicit content so platforms can filter user-generated media. It is built for developers and teams operating apps or communities that need automated filtering, App Store UGC review support, or compliance reporting.

Classify images and videos into five categories, including porn, hentai, sexy, drawing, and neutral.
Set separate sensitivity thresholds for image and video analysis from the dashboard.
Route flagged media to a manual review queue and override classifications with webhook syncing.
Generate downloadable DSA transparency reports and receive webhook notifications for admin overrides.

Images are processed in memory and destroyed after classification, and the classifier uses the open-source MobileNetV2 architecture. A free plan includes 5,000 operations per month, with paid volume tiers available.
