According to the company, 99.9% of the flagged content was identified and removed before being reported by users, while 98.4% was deleted within 24 hours of posting, reflecting the speed of its moderation process.
TikTok also revealed that 108,752 accounts in Kenya were banned during the same period, with a large number linked to suspected users under the age of 13, which is against platform rules.
“A significant portion of these, 93,704 accounts, were suspected of being accounts aged below 13, which is a violation of our rules,” the report noted.
Globally, the platform removed more than 175 million videos in the quarter, with over 152 million detected and deleted using automated systems.
TikTok said 99.1% of harmful content worldwide was removed proactively, while 93.4% of flagged material was taken down within 24 hours.
The company says its moderation approach combines artificial intelligence and human reviewers to combat misinformation, hate speech, and other violations, as social media platforms face increasing scrutiny over content safety and child protection.
