"Koo's moderation processes are carried out on a best effort basis. They are a mix of machine learning and human intervention, including through community reporting. While our processes are improving, there may be instances where detection has escaped," the report said.
Koo is committed to making its platform a safe and positive environment, it added.
Founded in 2020, the platform has witnessed a massive growth in its user base over the past few months, after Union ministers and government departments in India endorsed the homegrown microblogging platform that allows users to express their views in multiple Indian languages.
In August, the company had announced that it has crossed the milestone of 1 crore users within 15-16 months of its launch. Of this, nearly 85 lakh downloads have come since February this year. The company aims to reach 10 crore users over the next one year.
