- SlopStop is Kagi's community-driven feature for reporting low-quality, AI-generated content ('AI slop') in web, image, and video search results.
- Kagi Search already combats SEO spam by downranking ad-filled and tracker-heavy sites; SlopStop adds a collaborative element where users can flag suspected AI slop.
- Domains or channels with mostly AI-generated content (over 80%) are flagged as AI slop and downranked in search results.
- Subdomains are evaluated independently for AI-generated content.
- AI-generated images and videos are marked and downranked by default, with options to filter them out in search results.
- Kagi supports AI tools that enhance creativity but opposes those undermining the authenticity of human-made content.
- Users can report suspected AI slop via a shield icon in search results, with each report individually reviewed.
- Reports are typically reviewed within a week, leading to flags and downranking if confirmed.
- Users can check the status of their reports in Settings > Search > AI > SlopStop Reports.
- Downranking reduces visibility but does not hide results completely; there's an option to hide slop images and videos entirely.
- Users can contest incorrect flags by reporting 'not AI slop,' triggering a re-review.
