TypeScript Profanity Filter
Strongly-typed content moderation for TypeScript backends. Model the response shape once and get autocomplete on intent and score everywhere.
Quick start in TypeScript
interface ModerationResult {
flagged: boolean;
intent: string;
score: number;
}
export async function moderate(text: string): Promise<ModerationResult> {
const res = await fetch("https://api.theprofanityapi.com/v1/check", {
method: "POST",
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.PROFANITY_API_KEY}`,
"Content-Type": "application/json",
},
body: JSON.stringify({ text, context: "chat", mode: "balanced" }),
});
return res.json() as Promise<ModerationResult>;
} Why context-aware matters
A plain word list flags "this game is sick" or medical text full of
anatomical terms. The Profanity API runs a five-layer pipeline that
scores intent, so "die" in a gaming taunt and "die" in a real
threat are handled differently. Pick a context and the engine
adjusts strictness automatically.
