Most content moderation tools were built for websites and forums. This one wasn’t. It was built for the place your customers actually talk to you – the comments, DMs, and reviews under everything you post, on every social channel you run.
Content Moderation Tools – Hide Spam and Hate Automatically
Trusted by:
Supported platforms
Social inbox: Moderate user-generated content from every social channel in one queue
Comments, DMs, reviews, ad comments – the Social Inbox pulls user-generated content from Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Google reviews into one chronological list. Reply, hide, delete, tag, or send a thread to the right moderator – without opening a single native app.
AI assistant: AI content moderation that spots hate speech and spam on its own
Nobody wants to maintain a blacklist forever. Your AI Assistant reads what comes in and tags it as spam, hate speech, or negative sentiment as it arrives, so you open the inbox already knowing what needs a person, what needs a rule – and what can go straight to the bin.
Auto-moderation: Set the rules once and let content moderation software enforce them 24/7
Set up Auto-moderation to hide, delete, reply, or assign the moment something lands. Triggers can be keywords, links, user tags, or the AI Assistant’s own labels, and you can point a rule at one profile, one post, or certain hours of the day. Then stop thinking about it.
Ad comments: Automated content moderation for your paid campaigns too
Your paid reach is the worst possible place to leave a spam comment sitting. The same rules run under your Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok ads, including dark and unpublished posts you’d never see in a native inbox (and that protects your ad spend, too).
AI replies: Stop your moderators retyping the same three answers
For the comments that do need a human, AI drafts the reply from your own reply history and whatever brand and FAQ content you hand it. No, not robotically. Your moderator reads it, changes a word if they want to, and sends it on.
Social CRM: Check whether the angry commenter is a customer first
Before you hide anything, open the person’s Social CRM profile. You’ll see every conversation your brand has had with them, on any channel, plus your team’s notes and the sentiment of the relationship. It takes a second, and it’s the difference between removing a troll and silencing a customer having a bad week.
Moderation reports: Show what your content moderation tools actually removed
How much got hidden, how much got deleted, how fast your team replied, which rules did the most work? Moderation reports put real numbers on all of it – and that’s the part an analytics-only tool can’t show you. It’s also the easiest way to prove the moderation is worth paying for.
EU-hosted moderation: Your comment data never leaves Europe
NapoleonCat is based in the EU, and so are our servers. Nothing about your moderation has to travel outside EU borders, which matters more than usual when the content you’re storing is other people’s messages about your brand.
Content moderation tools that come with a publisher, analytics, and reports
Here’s why our clients love NapoleonCat
Join the teams that keep every comment section clean without reading every comment.
NapoleonCat saves up to one-third of a full-time position. That’s time we would otherwise spend manually moderating thousands of comments each month using the Meta Business Suite, profile by profile and comment by comment. Time we can now use for growth. NapoleonCat is the best tool of its kind on the market, and it’s still constantly evolving and improving by introducing new AI features.
It’s hard to imagine our work without a tool that includes so many valuable features. It won’t be an overstatement when I say that NapoleonCat saves us multiple full-time positions that would be dedicated to just moderating comments or manually generating reports.
NapoleonCat gives us the full picture of social media interactions. It’s easier to pick up urgent threads that need taking immediate action. And with conversation history, it’s much easier to continue the work of another team member while they’re out of office.
We work with multiple clients, and with NapoleonCat, we don’t waste time switching between multiple software tools. We can also deliver reliable data from a single source. We tested other social media moderation and analytics tools before, but none of them lived up to what NapoleonCat delivers. They’re the best, and I personally love using the tool. 🙂
NapoleonCat is now an indispensable tool that we use for moderation and analytical purposes, as well as content publishing. We’re curious to see new capabilities of the tool and test its new uses, for example, to moderate TikTok ad comments, as we predict this social media channel to become more and more important for our clients.
It’s the first social media engagement tool we have ever tried that is truly intuitive and that makes it easy for us to include the clients in the process. The service and support is great and personal. And the value for money is great!
We were looking for a tool that would allow us to consolidate and manage comments and private messages from Messenger in one place. Analytics and reports were also very important to us, as they would show us the level of our social media customer service. That’s why, in 2017, we decided to choose NapoleonCat.

FAQs
What are the types of content moderation?
Usually six. Pre-moderation checks content before it appears, post-moderation lets it publish and reviews it after, reactive moderation waits for someone to report it, distributed moderation hands the decision to the community, automated moderation applies rules and AI without a person, and hybrid moderation mixes automated screening with human review. NapoleonCat is built for the last two on social channels: rules and AI handle the volume, your team handles the judgment calls.
Is content moderation software the same as social media moderation?
They overlap, but they are not the same thing. A lot of content moderation software is built for websites, forums, marketplaces, and user-uploaded images or video. Social media moderation is about the comments, DMs, reviews, and ad comments on the profiles your brand runs. NapoleonCat does the second one: Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn Company Pages, Google reviews, and app store reviews, on organic posts and ads alike. If you need image or video classification on your own platform, that is a different category of tool.
What are the best content moderation tools for social media teams that need automatic spam filtering?
Look for three things. Rules that trigger on keywords, links, and repeated phrases; AI that tags spam on its own instead of waiting for you to blacklist every new variant; and coverage of ad comments, which is where most spam actually lands. NapoleonCat does all three, and the rules are shared across the team, so one set of filters applies to every profile and every moderator instead of each person policing the same spam separately.
Can AI do content moderation, or do you still need people?
AI is good at the part that does not need judgment: spotting spam, hate speech, and negative sentiment as it arrives, at a volume no team can read through, and acting on it within seconds. It is not good at the borderline cases, the angry customer with a real complaint, or anything where hiding the comment is the wrong call. So the honest answer is that AI removes the work, not the moderators. In NapoleonCat the AI Assistant tags what comes in, Auto-moderation acts on the clear-cut cases, and everything else lands in the Social Inbox for a person.
How do you automate content moderation for social media marketing?
Start with what you already delete by hand. Turn those keywords, links, and repeat offenders into Auto-moderation rules, then add the AI Assistant spam and sentiment tags as triggers so you are not maintaining a word list forever. Scope the strict rules to the places that need them, like a campaign with a difficult comment section, and set the rest to run around the clock. Then check the moderation reports after a couple of weeks to see which rules are doing the work and which ones never fire.
How much do content moderation tools cost?
The model matters more than the sticker price: many tools bill per seat from the first seat, so a three-person moderation team pays three times the headline figure, while NapoleonCat includes users in the plan. The plan that moderates automatically is Expert, from $139 a month for 2 users and 5 profiles, or $119 a month billed annually. Pro, from $109 a month, gives you the Social Inbox and manual moderation, and Standard, from $89, covers publishing and analytics without an inbox. All of them come with a 14-day free trial and no credit card.
