Fanpage Karma alternative for moderation: how OpenModeration compares
Fanpage Karma is a social media suite for analytics, publishing and community work. Its Hate Speech Detector flags hateful comments and is included in every subscription. OpenModeration is a tool built only for moderation, on your social accounts and on your website. Here is how the two compare, with sources.
Choose OpenModeration if…
- you want to moderate against your own rules, beyond hate speech;
- your readers also comment on your website;
- you need a written reason for every removal and a DSA audit trail;
- your data has to stay in the European Union.
Fanpage Karma may suit you better if…
- analytics and publishing are your main needs, and moderation comes second;
- you want analytics for Bluesky or Pinterest in the same tool;
- a hate speech filter included in your current subscription is enough for your volume.

What actually changes day to day
Your rules, not a single sensitivity slider
You write your rules in plain language and set a threshold for each category, from insults to spam. Our team adapts them with you to your use cases and real comments.
The AI reads the whole conversation
Each comment is judged with the post title and the discussion thread. A short reply such as "exactly" is read in the light of the comment it answers.
Every decision is explained and logged
A written reason comes with every decision, in the language of your choice. The activity log shows whether the AI or a named moderator decided, which is the record a DSA audit asks for.
The tool learns from moderation decisions
OpenModeration learns from moderation decisions and proposes rule adjustments. An admin reviews them and applies them in one click.
We set it up and run it for you
Just connect your pages: our team sets up the moderation on your rules and use cases, then runs it day to day. Doubtful cases and reports are handled by us, and you can step in whenever you want.
We set up your rules for you
Our team starts from your existing rules, your use cases and your real comments, sets the moderation up, then fine-tunes it over the first weeks. No work on your side.
Our team handles the doubtful cases
Doubtful cases, user reports and contested decisions are handled by our team. The system learns from every decision and proposes adjustments to your rules, which you approve in one click.
A test without risk
In sandbox mode, OpenModeration analyses your real comments and shows what it would have decided, without hiding or deleting anything.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best alternative to Fanpage Karma for comment moderation?
Fanpage Karma is a social media suite, and its Hate Speech Detector is one feature among many. If you need moderation as a job in its own right, across your social accounts and the comments on your website, OpenModeration gives you rules in plain language, our team on borderline cases, a written reason for every decision and a DSA audit trail. If you mainly need analytics and publishing with basic hate speech filtering, Fanpage Karma already includes it.
How much does Fanpage Karma cost?
Fanpage Karma's plans page lists a Free plan at €0, a Professional plan at €29 per month billed annually and an Enterprise plan on request. The company says the Hate Speech Detector is included in all subscription plans. OpenModeration is free up to 1,000 comments analysed per month and costs €99 per month for 10,000 on the Pro plan.
Can I keep Fanpage Karma for analytics and use OpenModeration for moderation?
Yes. OpenModeration only handles moderation, so your team keeps Fanpage Karma for reports and publishing. Start in sandbox mode: OpenModeration analyses your real comments without taking any action, and you compare its decisions with those of the Hate Speech Detector before you switch.
What does a dedicated moderation tool add to a hate speech filter?
A hate speech filter catches the obvious cases. A moderation tool also applies your own rules, reads each comment with the post title and the discussion thread, sends doubtful comments to a moderator, and keeps a record of every decision with its reason. For a publisher or a brand subject to the DSA, that record matters.
