How does pricing for text moderation work?

Pricing is done on a per-operation basis. Each request you make to our API will count as 1 or multiple operations depending on the content submitted.

For Rule-based pattern-matching algorithms, we will count 1 operation up to 1000 characters and then an extra operation for each extra 1000 characters. So if you do a request with a text that is 1800 characters long, that will count as 2 operations.

For Username moderation, each request counts as 1 operation only.

For Text Classification models, the same counting applies to each model requested. So if you analyze a text that is 1800 characters long with the general and self-harm models, that will count as 4 operations. When Rule-based algorithms and Text Classification models are combined in a single request, only the Text Classification models are counted.

Each time you perform a request to the API, the response field contains an operations key with details on the number of operations counted for this request.
