If you're not using either tool yet, now's a good time to try both! Zentropi's Community Edition is free and gives you unlimited labelers. Coop is fully open source and runs on your infrastructure.
:D
Thank you for your leadership and for being great stewards of Cove/Coop.

@dwillner.bsky.social and I have spent years watching T&S teams rebuild the same infrastructure from scratch. This is what it looks like when open tools actually work together instead. Really proud of this one and appreciative of @roost.tools's leadership!
Details: blog.zentropi.ai/zentropi-now...
Zentropi is now integrated into Coop, @roost.tools's open source moderation platform. You can write a content policy in plain English on Zentropi, plug it into Coop as a signal, and have a moderation pipeline running in minutes.

That has substantial implications.

Just shipped Zentropi's most requested feature: image classification!
Now analyze images against your own policies, at scale.
To power it we built cope-b-12b, a new multimodal model w/ native vision.

On the other hand, interesting contribution to do this all with a single transformer and candidate isolation.

15.01.2026 19:21 β π 5 π 2 π¬ 0 π 0Dave just published a Zentropi labeler that can precisely identify requests at prompting an AI model to undress a person in a photo. The tools exist to easily deal with this problem -- platforms just need to choose to use them. If you are the developer of an AI system, please use this guardrail!

It presents a new way of defining toxic speech online-- and illustrates the importance of observable features for accurate language model interpretability. Would love to hear how YOU define toxicity, too! blog.zentropi.ai/observations...
13.11.2025 22:47 β π 10 π 2 π¬ 0 π 0Awesome to see how this is already being used! One of the most useful aspects is that the published policies show what it takes to write content rules that can be accurately interpreted by language models. We hope this can be a boost to the broader content policy community.

11.11.2025 16:37 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0This was a fun launch! It turns Zentropi into a Github for Content Labelers. You can share content policies with others and build off each other's work. It's the easiest way of deploying a fully customizable classifier. Check out the policies @dwillner.bsky.social created at zentropi.ai/u/dave
10.11.2025 23:58 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Content policies are usually private, one-off efforts. You build yours, I build mine, we don't share much about what works or why. This makes sense given products can (and should) set different policies based on their communities, but it leaves us reinventing the wheel. π§΅ 1/5

We can (and should) debate whether OpenAI's promised mitigations are sufficient, but the fact that they are tackling the *product problem* head-on is a vital first step.
27.08.2025 07:19 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0This response to the Raine tragedy from OpenAI does something remarkable: it has the humility to acknowledge that a *product failure* led to real-world harm.
