Tools: Show Hn: Respectify – A Comment Moderator That Teaches People To...

Respectify helps you maintain respectful and relevant discussions in your online community.

Respectify creates healthy communication on your website.

Can you edit your comment to take the above feedback into account, please?

Want comments to stay about the topic of the page or blog they're on? Respectify can do that.It's configurable. The world isn't binary and neither are our settings.

Got a problem with trolls? Got people repeatedly posting 'good faith' comments that are not? ('What about...', 'I'm only saying that...', 'Not all polar bears...')Tell Respectify what to disallow. It won't be posted.

Sometimes people write things that sound like they're saying one thing, but their words are 'coded' — to mean something else to some readers.For example, someone might write: 'Those polar bears are always ruining our porridge.' To most readers, this seems like a complaint about bears and food. But to certain groups, it's actually saying something else entirely. (The real comments are not about bears.)You can avoid this by telling Respectify what not to allow. Tailor it for your site, topics, and audience.

We take a completely different — and surprisingly effective — approach to spam detection.Instead of relying on blacklists or captchas, Respectify uses AI to understand the context and intent of comments. This means it can catch sophisticated spam that traditional methods might miss, while letting genuine comments through without hassle.

In the heat of the moment, we don't think clearly.How will what you write be seen by the other person? Are you really understanding their point, or replying to what you think their point is?Respectify catches when a comment isn't phrased well. It tells you how and why.

Sometimes what we write isn't what we mean.Respectify can catch when your comment might be misinterpreted, and suggest ways to rephrase it so your meaning is clear.

Respectify can identify comments that contribute positively to the discussion and highlight them.This encourages a more respectful and engaging community.
