We protect trust and reputation in the digital field

Human moderators would need 2,000 hours a month to check all comments on our social networks. elv.ai saves us €8,500 monthly.

With AI-only solutions, we had to manually check comments because hate speech remained. That’s why we switched to elv.ai to ensure our comments are protected.

For the Representation of the European Commission in Slovakia, communication with Slovak citizens – whether in virtual or real contact – is key. It is important for us to discuss with people the topics that interest them, to answer their questions, or to provide them with the latest opinions on hot topics that move our society. We also try to keep in touch with people who do not share the same views, we are open to polite discussion, but we do not want to give space on our social networks to comments containing vulgarities, insults, hoaxes, dangerous misinformation and other illegal content. For this reason, we are very happy to partner with Elv.Ai, making the discussions under our posts a safe space for open exchange of opinions and sharing of facts for all those interested in a real discussion. With the help of Slovak elves and their latest AI technology, we will continue to create a space for constructive dialogue and develop a respectable debate on our social networks about the European Union and its priorities.

Given our shared goals of understanding the spread of misinformation, I reached out to Elves to see if they would be interested in a research collaboration. We are now working together on a project that will identify not only the prevalence and content of misinformation on Slovak Facebook, but also the type of content that causes misinformation in the first place. As a researcher, I am excited to work on this project with such a great team!

The Department of Journalism of the Faculty of Arts of the Comenius University is the oldest university-level journalism school in Slovakia. In its mission to educate future journalists and media workers, one of the priorities of the department is to be mindful of the principles of democracy and to always stand on the side of truth. The current information crisis brings with it many challenges for journalists and the education system, which is why it is necessary to join forces with real experts. The cooperation with elv.ai opens up a unique space for incorporating innovative technologies into academic research and education. The common goal is to participate in research on communication in the specific conditions of the online space, but also to cultivate it and combat misinformation and hate speech.
