HuffPo Acquires Adaptive Semantics
The Huffington Post has acquired Adaptive Semantics, a company which provides software designed to automatically moderate online commentary.
Adaptive Semantics claims its software is able to monitor millions of online comments each month, using sophisticated linguistics algorithms. Publishers can use the company’s tools both to identify the most prolific commenters and the most abusive, including visitors who actively look to evade moderation.
HuffPost has previously licensed Adaptive Semantics’ technology to assist its collection of human moderators and had held a minority stake in the firm.
