Indian Platform Separates Harm Detection From Human Review and Appeals

ZKTOR is an online platform developed by Softa Technologies.

It uses a system called VDL to look for possible harmful content.

People in separate grievance teams then decide what action to take.

Users can be told why a restriction happened and can appeal it.

The platform says it gives users controls over who can see, comment on or reshare their content.

It also uses encryption and limits access to private information.

Softa reported more than one million users during a 10-month public beta in four countries.

However, the materials describe planned procedures and company claims, not independently measured safety results.
