Comprehensive Violence Classification

Our violence detection goes beyond simple binary classification. We categorize different types of violent content and provide severity levels so you can make nuanced moderation decisions appropriate for your platform's audience and policies.

Graphic Violence

Real-world violence, injuries, and blood

Gore

Extreme graphic content and mutilation

Weapons

Guns, knives, and weapons in threatening contexts

Self-Harm

Cutting, suicide imagery, and self-injury

Fighting

Physical altercations and combat

Disturbing

Shocking or disturbing imagery

Severity Levels

Three severity levels (mild, moderate, extreme) help distinguish between cartoon violence and real graphic content.

Gaming Context

Understand video game violence and fantasy content differently than real-world violence.

Self-Harm Detection

Identify self-harm imagery for intervention and support workflows on mental health platforms.

Weapon Detection

Detect firearms, knives, and other weapons in threatening or dangerous contexts.

Violence Detection FAQ

How do you handle video game violence?

Our models can identify gaming context and provide separate scores. A screenshot of a shooter game will be classified differently than real violence.

Can you detect weapons without violence?

Yes. We can identify weapons in images even without active violence, useful for platforms that restrict weapon imagery entirely.

How do you handle news/documentary content?

We provide severity levels and context indicators. News organizations can use this to apply appropriate warnings while still publishing newsworthy content.

Do you detect self-harm content?

Yes. We have specific detection for self-harm imagery, enabling platforms to implement intervention workflows and connect users with support resources.
