Feature Announcement: Moderation Policy Audit Logs

BOULDER, Colo. - April 8, 2026 - PRLog -- When moderation behavior changes unexpectedly, the first question is always the same: what changed, and who changed it? With Moderation Policy Audit Logs, you don't have to guess.

What Are Moderation Policy Audit Logs?

Moderation Policy Audit Logs give your team a complete record of every change made to your moderation setup, who changed what, when, and what it looked like before and after. Every time a policy or rule is created, updated, or deleted, a log entry is automatically generated with the actor, timestamp, and a full look at the change.

How It Works

Each log entry includes a one-line summary, the user who made the change, the configs affected, and the policy under which it was made. For updates, a See Changes view opens a structured comparison table showing exactly which settings were modified, with old values in red and new values in green. Only the settings that actually changed are shown, unchanged settings are hidden, so you're not sifting through noise.

The comparison table covers everything across your moderation stack:

• AI text config — actions set per harm label and severity level (e.g. Threat → flag changed to Threat → remove)
• AI image config — image moderation setting changes
• Blocklist config — blocked words and phrases added or removed
• LLM config — custom LLM moderation label changes

When list items are involved, like adding a new severity rule for one label and removing another, the log groups changes by item and only surfaces what was added, removed, or modified.

Finding What You Need

The log list includes filters designed to cut through volume fast:

Action Taken lets you isolate specific change types: policy created, updated, or deleted, and the same for rules. Stack multiple options to widen the view.

Resource Type filters span policy changes and rule changes without requiring the selection of each action individually.

Combined with date filtering and actor visibility in every summary line, you can trace any config change back to the person and moment it happened.

Who It's Built For

Policy Audit Logs are built for teams where moderation configuration changes carry real consequences:

• Trust & Safety leads investigating unexpected moderation behavior, a sudden spike in removed content, a new harm label that wasn't flagged before, or a rule that stopped firing.
• Compliance teams that need a defensible record of policy changes for regulatory audits, DSA reporting, or internal governance reviews.
• Distributed moderation teams where multiple people have configuration access and visibility into who changed what prevents misconfigurations from going unnoticed.
