💡 Inspiration
Reddit communities face constant threats from toxic content, spam, and harmful posts. Security teams need real-time visibility into these threats. I built ModMind to bridge AI-powered content moderation with enterprise security operations using Splunk.
🛡️ What it does
ModMind is an AI-powered Reddit Security Operations platform that:
- Fetches posts from any subreddit in real-time
- Analyzes content using Gemini AI for toxicity scoring and sentiment
- Suggests mod actions — approve, remove, flag, or monitor
- Logs every decision to Splunk as a security event via HEC
- Enables threat hunting through Splunk dashboards and SPL queries
🔨 How I built it
- Frontend: React + Tailwind CSS
- Backend: Python FastAPI
- AI: Google Gemini API (gemini-flash-latest)
- Security Analytics: Splunk Cloud + HTTP Event Collector
- Deployment: Vercel + Render
🚧 Challenges I faced
- SSL certificate issues when sending events to Splunk HEC
- Reddit API rate limiting requiring fallback mock data
- Designing the right event schema for Splunk threat analytics
📚 What I learned
- How to integrate AI moderation pipelines with Splunk HEC
- Building agentic ops workflows that combine LLMs with security platforms
- Real-time security event streaming architecture
