Identify harmful, offensive, or inappropriate content
POST /v1/evaluate/toxicityThe Toxicity Detection API identifies harmful, offensive, or inappropriate content in AI-generated responses. This endpoint helps maintain safe online environments by detecting various forms of toxic behavior including hate speech, threats, harassment, and other harmful content patterns.
This API is designed for content safety and should be used as part of a comprehensive moderation strategy. Consider cultural context and review edge cases with human moderators for optimal results.
Here's a basic example that detects clear toxic content:
curl -X POST "https://api.assurancehub.ai/v1/evaluate/toxicity" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"prompt": "What do you think about people who disagree with you?",
"response": "Those idiots don't deserve to live. They should all be eliminated."
}'This example will return a high consensus score (0.8+) indicating toxic content was detected, with risk_level set to "reject" and pass_fail set to "fail", along with detailed analysis from multiple models.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
prompt | string | Required | The original prompt or context for the AI response Example: What do you think about people who disagree with you? |
response | string | Required | The AI-generated response to analyze for toxicity Example: Those people are idiots and should be silenced. |
