The record

Purpose: Amazon Rekognition Content Moderation automates image and video moderation workflows with machine learning and managed APIs.
Moderation categories: It detects categories including explicit or suggestive content, violence, drugs, tobacco, alcohol, hate symbols, gambling, and disturbing content.
Detection results: The service returns detected labels and video timestamps with confidence scores, which can be used with a hierarchical taxonomy to create granular rules.
Custom models: Amazon Rekognition Custom Moderation lets customers train an adapter with as few as 20 annotated images for image analysis tasks tailored to their use case.
Human review: The service integrates with Amazon Augmented AI so teams or third-party reviewers can assess low-confidence predictions.
Integrations: The product page describes using Amazon S3 to store uploaded content and Amazon Augmented AI for human review.
API workflow: For stored video, StartContentModeration analyzes a video in an Amazon S3 bucket and publishes completion status to an Amazon SNS topic.
Security: Amazon Rekognition API endpoints support HTTPS, and its documentation says communications are encrypted using TLS.
Data handling: Images and videos passed to Rekognition may be stored and used to improve the service unless the customer opts out; the stored content is encrypted at rest using AWS KMS.
Compliance: Third-party auditors assess Amazon Rekognition as part of multiple AWS compliance programs, while customers remain responsible for evaluating their own compliance obligations.
Use cases: AWS describes use cases including social media, gaming, ecommerce, advertising, and media and entertainment.
Scaling and billing: AWS says the service processes from a few to millions of images and videos, charges based on images or video duration processed, and has no minimum fees, licenses, or upfront commitments.
