Which moderation company did Discord acquire in July 2021?

Discord acquired the internet-moderation company Sentropy in July 2021.

Sentropy developed artificial-intelligence tools intended to detect abusive language, harassment, and other harmful content online. Discord acquired the company as it expanded its efforts to make communities safer and to improve the systems used by moderators and trust-and-safety teams.

The deal was announced during a period when Discord was growing rapidly beyond its original gaming audience. In 2020, the company began presenting itself as a broader communication platform, bringing a larger and more diverse range of communities onto its servers. That expansion increased the importance of scalable moderation technology.

Sentropy was described as an internet-moderation company rather than a conventional game studio or social network. The acquisition is sometimes confused with Discord's later or separate safety initiatives, and the alternative names in this question—Two Hat, Spectrum Labs, and Hive—were not the company Discord acquired in July 2021. The purchase followed Discord's broader investment in anti-harassment and content-safety tools.
