Movio’s security & ethics

Movio does offer content moderation. However, upon testing, the content moderation system seems to be subpar, allowing profane content to slip through.

With regards to the security of the platform itself, Movio does not offer Single Sign-On (SSO) and does not seem to be SOC compliant. Both factors can stand in the way of big enterprises using the software.

Synthesia’s security & ethics

In contrast, Synthesia has a strict content moderation policy (automated & manual), as well as SSO. The platform recently became SOC 2 Type I certified, with Type II certification expected by April 2023.
