Accurately moderating age-related content is essential for platform safety—but AI models often misclassify casual age mentions, overwhelming moderation queues. This session presents a two-layered system deployed at a large social platform with millions monthly active users. The first multilingual classifier flags potential underage content; a second, context-aware filter analyzes behavior patterns to refine decisions. This approach reduced false positives, accelerated sanctions, and improved moderation efficiency. Attendees will learn how to build scalable workflows, leverage behavioral signals for precise filtering, and elevate compliance—all while boosting user trust and operational effectiveness.

As the regulatory landscape evolves, so do the challenges for those building responsible tech. Rules like the UK’s Online Safety Act and the EU’s DSA are important, but for global platforms, navigating a patchwork of overlapping, sometimes conflicting frameworks is becoming a serious obstacle. Too much regulation risks stalling innovation and making compliance unworkable. Too little (or poorly defined rules) leave users and platforms exposed. This session looks at what happens when regulation is either excessive or falls short. From the perspective of platforms operating across multiple jurisdictions, this session explores how Trust & Safety strategies and teams are adapting to stay compliant without killing platforms’ product innovation.

A single compromised credential can open the door to far-reaching damage. What begins as one leaked login can cascade across platforms, users, and partners—undermining trust and exposing companies and individuals. This panel asks: Why does one breach so often become everyone’s problem? How do credential compromises erode trust, and how can startups foster cyber hygiene from the start? What role does domain and credential monitoring play in spotting threats early? And how can leaders embed a culture of everyday security? Attendees will leave with practical strategies to reduce credential risk and strengthen trust at every stage of growth.

Many believe that Trust and Safety only applies to social media platforms, but what about SaaS companies, whose tools can also be used for Fraud & more? In this talk, we'll discover the issues that SaaS companies face when their software is abuse, what common uses cases can look like & why perhaps this is an area being overlooked and what can be done to make these softwares take safety seriously.

In this session, we’ll share lessons from building scalable, secure payment solutions across global markets and how AI is taking developer experience to a whole new level. Drawing on our experience leading product and engineering teams across Europe, APAC, and Africa, we’ll explore the critical role developer experience plays in driving adoption, trust, and innovation in payments. We’ll share practical strategies from integrating with 60+ payment providers, designing developer-friendly APIs, and embedding “security by design” to ensure PCI DSS compliance from day one. We will show how AI not only transforms developer workflows by simplifying payment integrations but also optimises payment processing itself, for example, improving fraud prevention by reducing false positives by up to 80%, allowing more legitimate payments to go through, creating better experiences for developers, merchants, and end users. Whether you're building payment APIs or digital platforms with global reach, you'll leave with actionable insights to improve developer workflows, build trust, and deliver seamless, intelligent payment experiences at scale.
