- As communities grow, so too does their need for moderation to ensure that content does not become toxic. In communities where moderation is vital, like group therapy, these solutions can augment human moderators and allow services and platforms to scale. AI-based moderation is rarely cost-effective for a platform to build in-house.

- We also believe there will be thousands of micro-PLCs. They’ll look like the course creators who have a unique audience on Teachable, the fitness influencers who have an Instagram presence and their own DTC product, a community creator passionate about bringing remote sales professionals together, or an open-source developer community.
