Quick Start

import asyncio
from tuteliq import Tuteliq

async def main():
    client = Tuteliq(api_key="your-api-key")

    # Quick safety analysis
    result = await client.analyze("Message to check")

    if result.risk_level != RiskLevel.SAFE:
        print(f"Risk: {result.risk_level}")
        print(f"Summary: {result.summary}")

    await client.close()

asyncio.run(main())

Or use as a context manager:

async with Tuteliq(api_key="your-api-key") as client:
    result = await client.analyze("Message to check")

API Reference

Initialization

from tuteliq import Tuteliq

# Simple
client = Tuteliq(api_key="your-api-key")

# With options
client = Tuteliq(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    timeout=30.0,      # Request timeout in seconds
    max_retries=3,     # Retry attempts
    retry_delay=1.0,   # Initial retry delay in seconds
)

Bullying Detection

result = await client.detect_bullying("Nobody likes you, just leave")

if result.is_bullying:
    print(f"Severity: {result.severity}")       # Severity.MEDIUM
    print(f"Types: {result.bullying_type}")     # ["exclusion", "verbal_abuse"]
    print(f"Confidence: {result.confidence}")   # 0.92
    print(f"Rationale: {result.rationale}")

Grooming Detection

from tuteliq import DetectGroomingInput, GroomingMessage, MessageRole

result = await client.detect_grooming(
    DetectGroomingInput(
        messages=[
            GroomingMessage(role=MessageRole.ADULT, content="This is our secret"),
            GroomingMessage(role=MessageRole.CHILD, content="Ok I won't tell"),
        ],
        child_age=12,
    )
)

if result.grooming_risk == GroomingRisk.HIGH:
    print(f"Flags: {result.flags}")  # ["secrecy", "isolation"]

Unsafe Content Detection

result = await client.detect_unsafe("I don't want to be here anymore")

if result.unsafe:
    print(f"Categories: {result.categories}")  # ["self_harm", "crisis"]
    print(f"Severity: {result.severity}")      # Severity.CRITICAL

Quick Analysis

Runs bullying and unsafe detection in parallel:

result = await client.analyze("Message to check")

print(f"Risk Level: {result.risk_level}")   # RiskLevel.SAFE/LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH/CRITICAL
print(f"Risk Score: {result.risk_score}")   # 0.0 - 1.0
print(f"Summary: {result.summary}")
print(f"Action: {result.recommended_action}")

Emotion Analysis

result = await client.analyze_emotions("I'm so stressed about everything")

print(f"Emotions: {result.dominant_emotions}")  # ["anxiety", "sadness"]
print(f"Trend: {result.trend}")                 # EmotionTrend.WORSENING
print(f"Followup: {result.recommended_followup}")

Action Plan

from tuteliq import GetActionPlanInput, Audience, Severity

plan = await client.get_action_plan(
    GetActionPlanInput(
        situation="Someone is spreading rumors about me",
        child_age=12,
        audience=Audience.CHILD,
        severity=Severity.MEDIUM,
    )
)

print(f"Steps: {plan.steps}")
print(f"Tone: {plan.tone}")

Incident Report

from tuteliq import GenerateReportInput, ReportMessage

report = await client.generate_report(
    GenerateReportInput(
        messages=[
            ReportMessage(sender="user1", content="Threatening message"),
            ReportMessage(sender="child", content="Please stop"),
        ],
        child_age=14,
    )
)

print(f"Summary: {report.summary}")
print(f"Risk: {report.risk_level}")
print(f"Next Steps: {report.recommended_next_steps}")

Voice Streaming

Real-time voice streaming with live safety analysis over WebSocket. Requires websockets:

pip install tuteliq[voice]

from tuteliq import VoiceStreamConfig, VoiceStreamHandlers

session = client.voice_stream(
    config=VoiceStreamConfig(
        interval_seconds=10,
        analysis_types=["bullying", "unsafe"],
    ),
    handlers=VoiceStreamHandlers(
        on_transcription=lambda e: print(f"Transcript: {e.text}"),
        on_alert=lambda e: print(f"Alert: {e.category} ({e.severity})"),
    ),
)

await session.connect()

# Send audio chunks as they arrive
await session.send_audio(audio_bytes)

# End session and get summary
summary = await session.end()
print(f"Risk: {summary.overall_risk}")
print(f"Score: {summary.overall_risk_score}")
print(f"Full transcript: {summary.transcript}")

---

Credits Tracking

Each response includes the number of credits consumed:

result = await client.detect_bullying("Test message")
print(f"Credits used: {result.credits_used}")  # 1

Method	Credits	Notes
detect_bullying()	1	Single text analysis
detect_unsafe()	1	Single text analysis
detect_grooming()	1 per 10 msgs	ceil(messages / 10), min 1
analyze_emotions()	1 per 10 msgs	ceil(messages / 10), min 1
get_action_plan()	2	Longer generation
generate_report()	3	Structured output
analyze_voice()	5	Transcription + analysis
analyze_image()	3	Vision + OCR + analysis

---

Tracking Fields

All methods support external_id and metadata for correlating requests:

result = await client.detect_bullying(
    "Test message",
    external_id="msg_12345",
    metadata={"user_id": "usr_abc", "session": "sess_xyz"},
)

# Echoed back in response
print(result.external_id)  # "msg_12345"
print(result.metadata)     # {"user_id": "usr_abc", ...}

---

Usage Tracking

result = await client.detect_bullying("test")

# Access usage stats after any request
if client.usage:
    print(f"Limit: {client.usage.limit}")
    print(f"Used: {client.usage.used}")
    print(f"Remaining: {client.usage.remaining}")

# Request metadata
print(f"Request ID: {client.last_request_id}")

---

FastAPI Example

from fastapi import FastAPI, HTTPException
from tuteliq import Tuteliq, RateLimitError

app = FastAPI()
client = Tuteliq(api_key="your-api-key")

@app.post("/check-message")
async def check_message(message: str):
    try:
        result = await client.analyze(message)

        if result.risk_level.value in ["high", "critical"]:
            raise HTTPException(
                status_code=400,
                detail={"error": "Message blocked", "reason": result.summary}
            )

        return {"safe": True, "risk_level": result.risk_level.value}

    except RateLimitError:
        raise HTTPException(status_code=429, detail="Too many requests")

Best Practices

Message Batching

The bullying and unsafe content methods analyze a single text field per request. If your platform receives messages one at a time (e.g., a chat app), concatenate a sliding window of recent messages into one string before calling the API. Single words or short fragments lack context for accurate detection and can be exploited to bypass safety filters.

# Bad — each message analyzed in isolation, easily evaded
for msg in messages:
    client.detect_bullying(text=msg)

# Good — recent messages analyzed together
window = " ".join(recent_messages[-10:])
client.detect_bullying(text=window)

The grooming method already accepts a messages list and analyzes the full conversation in context.

PII Redaction

Enable PII_REDACTION_ENABLED=true on your Tuteliq API to automatically strip emails, phone numbers, URLs, social handles, IPs, and other PII from detection summaries and webhook payloads. The original text is still analyzed in full — only stored outputs are scrubbed.

The Mission: Why This Matters

Before you decide to contribute or sponsor, read these numbers. They are not projections. They are not estimates from a pitch deck. They are verified statistics from the University of Edinburgh, UNICEF, NCMEC, and Interpol.

• 302 million children are victims of online sexual exploitation and abuse every year. That is 10 children every second. (Childlight / University of Edinburgh, 2024)
• 1 in 8 children globally have been victims of non-consensual sexual imagery in the past year. (Childlight, 2024)
• 370 million girls and women alive today experienced rape or sexual assault in childhood. An estimated 240–310 million boys and men experienced the same. (UNICEF, 2024)
• 29.2 million incidents of suspected child sexual exploitation were reported to NCMEC's CyberTipline in 2024 alone — containing 62.9 million files (images, videos). (NCMEC, 2025)
• 546,000 reports of online enticement (adults grooming children) in 2024 — a 192% increase from the year before. (NCMEC, 2025)
• 1,325% increase in AI-generated child sexual abuse material reports between 2023 and 2024. The technology that should protect children is being weaponized against them. (NCMEC, 2025)
• 100 sextortion reports per day to NCMEC. Since 2021, at least 36 teenage boys have taken their own lives because they were victimized by sextortion. (NCMEC, 2025)
• 84% of reports resolve outside the United States. This is not an American problem. This is a global emergency. (NCMEC, 2025)

End-to-end encryption is making platforms blind. In 2024, platforms reported 7 million fewer incidents than the year before — not because abuse stopped, but because they can no longer see it. The tools that catch known images are failing. The systems that rely on human moderators are overwhelmed. The technology to detect behavior — grooming patterns, escalation, manipulation — in real-time text conversations exists right now. It is running at api.tuteliq.ai.

The question is not whether this technology is possible. The question is whether we build the company to put it everywhere it needs to be.

Every second we wait, another child is harmed.

We have the technology. We need the support.

If this mission matters to you, consider sponsoring our open-source work so we can keep building the tools that protect children — and keep them free and accessible for everyone.
