openmoderb

Openmoderb is an open-source software project described as a toolkit for moderating online communities. The project is intended to help administrators and moderators implement policies, manage user reports, and review moderation decisions across multiple platforms. The core aim is to provide a transparent, auditable moderation workflow and to support both automated and human oversight.

Key components typically associated with openmoderb include a moderation API for submitting and querying reports, a rules engine for applying community guidelines, incident and appeal management, audit logs to track actions, and dashboards to assist moderators. The design emphasizes interoperability, with RESTful APIs and pluggable modules to support different platforms and content types. The architecture is described as modular and language-agnostic, enabling deployment in cloud or self-hosted environments.

Development and status information for openmoderb is dispersed across public repositories and documentation, and specifics such as licensing, current maintainer, and active deployments may vary between releases. Because it is community-driven, contributions come from volunteers and organizations interested in moderation workflows and transparency in decision-making.
