WebPurify: New DMLA Sponsor

Posted on 8/14/2018 by Jim Pickerell | Printable Version | Comments (0)

WebPurify, a full-service digital content moderation and review company with over 12 years experience is a new sponsor of the Digital Media Licensing Association (DMLA). The Irvine, CA based company’s mission is to maintain the quality and integrity of media libraries.

WebPurify’s offers a combination of live content moderators and AI technology that can be a huge asset to stock photography websites in helping to curate, manage and moderate the copy associated with images and videos.

The charge for live, human moderation of still images is $0.02 per image while the charge for Automated Intelligent Moderation (AIM) technology is only $0.0015 per image. For high-volume sites they offer a variety of custom solutions between these two price points depending on the clients needs.



The main features of the AIM technology is that it can detect and remove inappropriate content such as:
    •    contain nudity or partial nudity
    •    portray hate or hate crimes
    •    contain violence
    •    contain offensive gestures or language (English only)


    •    contain drugs, drug paraphernalia, or drug use
    •    appear blank or broken
The fee for video moderation is $0.15 per minute. Videos are moderated by WebPurify’s expertly trained workforce and results are returned within 1 hour, 24/7, 365 days a year. The work is never crowd sourced. While customers receive 24/7 coverage, they only pay for the video time used.

WebPurify can review your existing libraries and new submissions to ensure that they meet your requirements. The custom criteria they develop with you can cover everything from offensive content, such as images that are considered violent or hateful, to simply bad imagery like a blurry, low-quality photo to potentially copyrighted content that wouldn’t be appropriate for sale on your platform. Additionally, they can label and sort content according to your custom needs.
