Uploaded and generated images now pass through a moderation layer that helps block unsupported or unsafe content before processing continues.

Better moderation feedback

User-facing error messages were improved so rejected uploads explain the issue without exposing internal moderation details.

Access and anti-abuse

Payment eligibility and account safety refinements
