Spanish-language content moderation and classifier training for a Latin American platform

The challenge

The platform had treated moderator attrition as an HR problem and moderation quality as a training problem, when they were the same problem: high-intensity queues without a wellbeing framework drove both. Wrongful-removal appeals were rising and classifier training data was inconsistent across Spanish variants.

Approach and methodology

• Implemented a documented wellbeing framework: mandatory rotation off high-intensity queues, scheduled decompression, on-site counselling and peer support
• Standardised classifier training data across Latin American Spanish variants
• Added AI-augmented triage so moderators focus on genuinely ambiguous cases
• Delivered from Puerto Plata with trust-and-safety leads embedded

Results

Moderator attrition fell sharply once the wellbeing framework was in place, and moderation accuracy rose as the same change reduced burnout-driven error. Wrongful-removal appeals upheld fell as classifier data and triage improved. Full metrics are in the downloadable portfolio.

Enduring value

The wellbeing framework is now the client's trust-and-safety standard and a documented Corpshore Dominicana approach, and the Latin American classifier data set is a client-owned asset.
