How to Use Image Moderation

  1. Submit the image: POST image_url (a publicly accessible URL) and an optional text to bias the moderator with extra context (for example: "flag anything with weapons").

  2. Poll the result: Call /api/v1/predictions/{request_id}/result until status is completed. Or set a webhook query param to receive the verdict asynchronously.

  3. Act on the verdict: The output.flagged boolean is your gate. output.categories lists which categories were tripped, and output.has_nsfw_contents mirrors the provider's per-output NSFW booleans.
