Bodyguard strengths
- Moderates comments on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube as well as LinkedIn, X, Twitch and Discord, and every supported network is included in every plan. Source

- Covers comments on dark posts and paid partnership posts on Facebook and Instagram, Direct Sponsored Content on LinkedIn and non-Spark ads on TikTok. Source
- States 46 languages, including six premium languages, and accounts for local expressions by country. Source
Bodyguard limitations
- The cheapest plan, Guardian, starts at 1,000 EUR a month and leaves out paid and organic filtering, custom classifications, Shield Mode and Individual Protector. Source
- Every plan, including Guardian, is sold through a Get a quote request rather than a self-serve sign-up. Source
- On YouTube only top-level comments on videos and Shorts are moderated, and on X no action is taken on comments, only on their authors. Source
- The privacy policy says personal data may be transferred outside the EEA, and no page states EU-only hosting. Source
- The vendor names less client-side rule configuration as a trade-off, because improvements rely on its own experts and model updates. Source
