A Comparative Benchmark of a Moroccan Darija Toxicity Detection Model (Typica.ai) and Major LLM-Based Moderation APIs (OpenAI, Mistral, Anthropic)
Abstract
A culturally grounded toxicity detection model is benchmarked against major LLM-based APIs, showing superior performance in identifying culturally specific toxic content.
This paper presents a comparative benchmark evaluating the performance of Typica.ai's custom Moroccan Darija toxicity detection model against major LLM-based moderation APIs: OpenAI (omni-moderation-latest), Mistral (mistral-moderation-latest), and Anthropic Claude (claude-3-haiku-20240307). We focus on culturally grounded toxic content, including implicit insults, sarcasm, and culturally specific aggression often overlooked by general-purpose systems. Using a balanced test set derived from the OMCD_Typica.ai_Mix dataset, we report precision, recall, F1-score, and accuracy, offering insights into challenges and opportunities for moderation in underrepresented languages. Our results highlight Typica.ai's superior performance, underlining the importance of culturally adapted models for reliable content moderation.
