Structured Safety Category Scoring With Confidence Metrics

via “per-category risk scoring and policy threshold customization”

Meta's LLM safety classifier for content policy enforcement.

Unique: Llama Guard outputs per-category risk scores rather than binary judgments, enabling teams to define custom policy thresholds per category and adjust enforcement without retraining. This is more flexible than single-threshold classifiers but requires explicit policy definition.

vs others: More flexible than binary classifiers for nuanced safety requirements, though requires more operational effort to tune thresholds and manage policy logic
