About us

We are building multimodal AI Agents that moderate content in context, accurately and at scale

About us

Our co-founders, James and Sasha, met at Entrepreneur First (a talent investor that helps ambitious people meet their co-founders). They got talking and realised they had something pretty big in common: a desire to solve challenging, real-world problems - and a fascination with online safety.

After digging into the inner workings of content moderation, James and Sasha found that platforms didn’t have the tools or information they needed to keep users safe online, or to create truly thriving communities.

This is when Unitary was born.

Unitary was founded to help platforms moderate content at scale. We do this by building context-aware AI Moderation Agents backed by multimodal machine learning methods to interpret content in context.

Our Mission

Make the internet safer by helping brands and platforms understand their content accurately, swiftly and at scale.
