How to pick the right Content Moderation Partner based in the Philippines
Choosing the Right Fit for Safety, Scale, and Sensitivity Content moderation isn’t just about filtering — it’s about protecting users, brand equity, and compliance across fast-moving digital platforms. The right BPO partner should feel like an extension of your in-house trust and safety team. Here’s what to look for when evaluating a content moderation partner based in the Philippines:
1. Look for Experience in Sensitive and Scalable Moderation
Why it matters: Not all moderation is equal — UGC, ads, marketplaces, reviews, comments, or livestreams all require different skill sets and tolerance thresholds.
What to look for:
- Demonstrated experience in handling image, video, and text moderation at scale.
- Familiarity with community guidelines across verticals (e.g., SaaS, ecommerce, dating, gig economy).
- Workflow fluency in triage, escalation, labeling, and real-time intervention.
SupportZebra: We support content-sensitive platforms in high-growth industries with custom moderation workflows for speed, accuracy, and empathy.
2. Confirm Privacy and Data Security Protocols

- Encrypted transfers, access control, and audit logs.
SupportZebra: Your moderation happens within a fully compliant, secure environment. Our agents complete recurring privacy and trauma resilience training.
3. Ask About Turnaround Time and SLA Management
Why it matters: Delays in moderation mean harmful or inappropriate content could stay live too long — impacting user trust and platform reputation.
What to look for:
- SLA-based response windows (e.g., < 2 minutes for real-time, < 15 minutes for queue-based).
- Real-time queue handling and performance dashboards.
SupportZebra: Our moderation teams are staffed for 24/7 availability with SLAs you can count on — and track in real-time.
4. Validate Trauma-Informed Training & Agent Support
Why it matters: Reviewing disturbing or emotionally triggering content has long-term psychological effects on moderators.

- Wellness programs and mental health support for moderators.
- Resilience training and break protocols.
SupportZebra: We prioritize our people. Our culture-first model includes mental health check-ins, counseling access, and proactive rotation to prevent burnout.
5. Check for Contract Flexibility & Cost Efficiency
Why it matters: Needs can shift fast. A product launch, community surge, or algorithm update could demand rapid headcount adjustments.
What to look for:
- 30- and 90-day pilots without long-term commitments.
