💼 An Investment in Efficiency and Protection 🛡️

In today's digital world, the need for effective content management and security solutions is more important than ever. Spam and malicious content not only increase costs for usage rate-based services, it also skews critical digital marketing data. Left unchecked, spam can cost companies hundreds of dollars more on irrelevant clicks, all because bots, malicious or not, are triggering conversion actions.
Enter SpamSpy, the adaptive content moderation tool designed to block spam content and protect your digital assets. SpamSpy uses data from the worst parts of the internet to help bring out its best. With hope and community involvement, the team at SpamSpy strives to create a safer and more efficient online environment.

🕵️‍♂️ The SpamSpy Solution: Eliminating Spam and Saving Money 💰

Spam costs businesses approx. $20.5 billion annually in lost productivity alone.[1] However, from October 2020 to September 2021, 1,980.58 billion (1,980,580,000,000) spam emails were sent. Though we do take these "free" instant digital letters for granted, as emails are not without any overhead costs to send. At the most basic level, emails cost electricity to run the servers needed to process the sending and receiving of your emails, including those that fail to send.

More specifically, the costs of an email breaks down between infrastructure, bandwidth, spam & security (encryption, filtering, etc.), and energy consumption. The easiest factor to estimate cost is energy consumption, and with it, environmental impact. According to the Carbon Disclosure Project and the Global e-Sustainability Initiative, sending an email with a 1Mb attachment can produce approximately 19 grams of CO2 emission, although this can vary to be far greater or less based on variables like server energy sources, efficiency, and the contents of an email.

Unfortunately, even with these numbers, it is still very difficult to estimate the true cost of what these spam emails sent between October 2020 to September 2021 were. A common, yet outdated estimate, is a simple text-based email costs about $0.0001 per email in terms of energy consumption, and generates ~4 grams of CO2 emissions. Most spam emails far exceed this, including multiple image attachments to scam their recipients in an attempt to show authority and authenticity. Though from this number we can assume, very conservatively, the cost of all these 1,980.58 billion spam emails at the absolute minimum was ~$198,058,000 USD and produced a minimum of ~7,922,320,000,000 grams or 792,232,000 tons of CO2; though this number is easily multiple times greater.

To give a better idea of the scaling carbon costs associated with emails, the Carbon Literacy Project provided this table to help conceptualize the scaling CO2 cost of a single spam email.[2] Table from the Carbon Literacy Project depicating the scaling CO2 costs of emails as the amount of content and recipients grow.

SpamSpy uses AI to combat these costs to more effectivly and efficently tackle spam and moderate user generated content, while also providing the cheapest anti-spam and content moderation tool on the market. SpamSpy represents a more viable, ever expanding solution that is actually within reach. SpamSpy offers a range of security benefits for its users, capable of being implemented in both existing and new security systems alike; SpamSpy can even be used standalone. Some of the major benefits for our users include: free classic spam exact match filtering via the Remember endpoint, stopping irrelevant leads, (e.g., bots), from triggering conversion actions, and protecting against never-before-seen spam; including that which was produced using AI-generated content custom tailord to attack each of its recipients in the most effective way possible using tools like Auto-GPT.

This not only saves money, it can even protect digital marketing data that can become skewed by malicious data, such as competitor bot lead/PPC attacks. It also helps in maintaining the integrity of the web, by decreasing the incentives these bad actors creating spam are chasing; this is especially true as AI is new and people commonly misunderstand where its true risk lies. While the Remember endpoint is optmized with the purpose to provide a free solution to classic spam filtering, it also saves on the CO2 costs generated from using SpamSpy's Comprehend endpoint's AI resources because it prevents pointless reprocessing of previously scanned content; saving users, and frankly SpamSpy, more money when the two endpoints are implemented alongside one another.

This can easily be done by developers directly using our API in their projects. Alternativly, if using the SpamSpy No-Code Zapier Intergration, you can simply use the "Path" addon by Zapier in your Zaps workflow to send the content to the Remember endpoint first. Then, if the Remember endpoint returns "Content Not Yet Scanned", send it to both the Comprehend and Learn endpoints for computation, in addition to providing SpamSpy additional training data. This process saves more money the longer it runs, while helping SpamSpy better train its responses to detect spam and unwanted user content, and at the same time helping improve the efficiency of everyone using SpamSpy in that internet niche better. As we internally review more content every day, and as our user submissions keep pouring in, SpamSpy's AI is only getting more effiecient at detecting the true sentiments in user generated content, thus gaining further insights into the true intentions behind: spam emails, malicous/irrelevant live chat messages, and countless more data points which we are using to develop new protective tools that we'll be shareing with the public over the coruse of this year and beyond.
