Lettuce Stream Adds Google Cloud Vision Safeguards for Paid Galleries

Chicago, Illinois — Lettuce Stream today announced new safety features for paid gallery access that use Google Cloud Vision SafeSearch to help protect creators, audiences, and payment workflows across the Lettuce ecosystem.

The policy is straightforward: Lettuce Stream will refuse the sale of pornography through paid gallery experiences. When a creator turns on paid gallery access, eligible gallery images are reviewed with Google Cloud Vision before the sale flow can be saved. If adult content is detected, the paid sale is blocked until the creator removes the flagged media or turns paid gallery access off.

At the same time, Lettuce Stream is preserving room for creative expression. Posting lawful adult-oriented material, figure studies, gallery work, or other art is not the same as selling pornography through Lettuce commerce. Creators can continue to post permitted content outside paid gallery sales, subject to applicable platform policies, laws, and community expectations.

"Safety and creative freedom should reinforce each other," said the Lettuce Stream team. "Google Cloud Vision gives us an added layer of protection for monetized gallery flows without treating all adult expression or art as commerce that must be blocked."

Lettuce Stream does not foresee allowing the sale of pornography through its ecosystem. The company says this approach gives creators a clearer line between expression and monetization, helps reduce risk for buyers and partners, and keeps commerce aligned with a safer long-term platform strategy.
