Current State vs Future State Comparison

Current State

(Traditional)
  1. Human moderator reviews reported content after members flag it.
  2. Manually read each flagged post to determine if it violates policies.
  3. Apply moderation action (warn, delete, ban) based on moderator judgment.
  4. No proactive scanning (inappropriate content visible until reported).
  5. Moderation decisions inconsistent across different moderators interpreting policies.

Characteristics

  • Salesforce Experience Cloud
  • Khoros
  • WebPurify
  • Sprinklr
  • Excel/Google Sheets
  • Zendesk

Pain Points

  • Scalability issues with manual moderation as community size increases.
  • Inconsistent application of moderation rules leading to user dissatisfaction.
  • Bias in AI moderation tools affecting fairness.
  • Delays in response time to user reports causing frustration.
  • Resource-intensive requiring dedicated staff and ongoing training.
  • Legal and compliance risks if moderation fails to address harmful content.
  • Integration challenges with legacy systems and modern tools.

Future State

(Agentic)
  1. Content Scanning Agent proactively analyzes all posts in real-time: hate speech and harassment detection, profanity and explicit content filtering, spam and promotional content identification, personally identifiable information flagging.
  2. Policy Enforcement Agent matches violations to specific policy guidelines.
  3. Severity Classification Agent categorizes violations: auto-remove (clear violations), human review needed (borderline cases), context required (depends on thread discussion).
  4. Escalation Workflow Agent routes: clear violations to auto-moderation, edge cases to human moderator, severe violations to senior moderation team.
  5. Audit Trail Agent logs all decisions for consistency review.

Characteristics

  • Community content (posts, comments, messages)
  • Moderation policy guidelines and rules
  • AI toxicity and harm models
  • Historical moderation decisions
  • Member history and reputation scores
  • Context signals from thread discussions
  • Escalation workflow rules
  • Audit logs and decision records

  • 80-90% reduction in manual moderation burden
  • Real-time proactive scanning vs hours-delayed reactive response
  • Consistent policy enforcement through AI-guided decisions
  • 24/7 automated protection vs business hours only
