Protect players and users—without killing the conversation

Voice is where communities come alive—and where harm, abuse, and manipulation escalate fastest.

Modulate helps gaming studios and social platforms understand what’s happening in voice conversations as they happen, so they can protect users, enforce policies fairly, and preserve authentic connection.

ToxMod, our purpose-built moderation solution, and its underlying AI engine Velma, understand how something was said—not just what—making them far more effective than text-first or LLM-based moderation approaches.

Real-time voice moderation at scale

ToxMod is Modulate’s voice moderation product for gaming and social platforms. It monitors live voice conversations to detect harassment, hate, threats, grooming, and other harmful behaviors—in real time, with low latency and high precision.

Unlike legacy moderation tools that rely on transcripts or keyword matching, ToxMod listens directly to voice and behavioral signals such as tone, intensity, escalation patterns, and interaction dynamics.

Context-rich analytics tracking real behaviors

Velma analyzes voice. Not transcripts, not text messages, voice.

Velma knows the difference between a quiet user and one who feels unsafe.

It understands sarcasm and friendly banter. It can spot deepfakes and recognize younger or older voices which don’t belong.

It understands vulnerability and can flag the users that most need your help.

And most of all, it doesn’t just listen to a speaker - it can interpret the reactions of the audience, to help you understand how a piece of content, a recent update, or a discussion trend is truly impacting your community. 

What Velma detects in real time

Velma continuously analyzes live or pre-recorded voice channels and produces real-time signals and events, including:

Harassment, hate, and abusive behavior

Escalation and conflict patterns

Popular discussion trends or changing user sentiment

Deepfakes or false content

Low-quality, inaudible, or noisy audio

And other behaviors you define

Built for gaming and social platforms

ToxMod and Velma are trusted in some of the most adversarial voice environments in the world and is designed to scale across:

Multiplayer games

Protect players in competitive, cooperative, and social play—without disrupting gameplay or adding friction.

Social audio & voice-first platforms

Moderate live rooms, group chats, and creator communities where tone and interaction dynamics matter as much as words.

UGC-driven communities

Support large-scale, user-generated voice interactions with consistent, policy-aligned enforcement.

We're focused on delivering a welcoming community for all players. Through our collaboration with Modulate, we're continuing to unlock new ways for technology to strengthen the player experience and encourage more positive moments of play across our games. Voice chat is a powerful part of how players communicate and compete in our games. By using proactive machine learning to identify disruptive behavior in real time, we're building a foundation that supports enforcement while sustaining the fun and fairness that define great multiplayer experiences.
