The Candid app differs from that of other messaging apps alike Candid, as it employs natural language processing to analyze every post. All questionable content is discarded, negative opinion posts are flagged, and will redirect "off-topic comments" to the relevant community groups. Moreover, the app will distinguish “slander, hate speech and threatening remarks for instant delete.”

 In one of the Candid blog it stated that:

“It’s important to us that our users feel comfortable and secure when they post on Candid. Nothing you post in our community will EVER be used as a commodity to be sold to a third party. The information our AI system uses to improve will stay exclusively with Candid to help it get better”.

Why Such Ideas Work?

In the era of social media, people freely expresses their views, whether it’s appropriate or not, and while entitling our opinions on social media can impact our job as well as private life. This has given birth to apps that adopt anonymity with the promise to create “freer” communities. Although the motives may be generous, controversy has been created around such apps, some of which have seen people harassing other users, trolling, and showing the darkest side of humanity.

Bindu Reddy, CEO, and co-founder of Candid, commented:

“I created Candid for people like me. My social media network includes everyone in my life, from friends I haven’t seen since high school to family members and work colleagues. Expressing my opinion, especially about controversial issues, inevitably upsets someone. I needed a place to express myself and engage in discussions where ideas can be debated on their own merits instead of being used to attack me as a person.”
