Profanity Check lets you send text and detect whether it contains profanity. POST a body object with text, and optionally language (default en), then read the response to see the result.
Use it when you need to screen user-generated content before publishing comments, chat messages, reviews, profile bios, or support tickets. It fits moderation flows where you want a fast pass/fail check on incoming text without building your own keyword filter.
The request schema is simple: text is required and must be a non-empty string, and language accepts a short language code. The service returns a JSON response for the check; the endpoint schema is open-ended, so this page only documents the guaranteed input shape rather than inventing fields.
Add Profanity Check to moderation pipelines, content submission forms, and internal review tools when you need a lightweight text-safety gate before content is stored or shown.
Send a short text snippet to check it for profanity.

-d '{"text":"This is a sample text.","language":"en"}'Returns a JSON object. The schema does not declare any specific response fields, so the exact shape can include additional properties.
