Canvas Rules: Creation Theft Prohibited, Auto-Moderation Explained

· 2 min read

Notice on creation theft and auto-moderation in Canvas

The inZOI team has issued guidelines for Canvas covering two separate problems: people stealing other Creators' work, and the automated moderation system flagging legitimate content by mistake.

Creation theft is prohibited​

The team says it has seen cases of users downloading another Creator's work, modifying or deleting the original author information, and re-uploading it to Canvas.

Explicitly prohibited:

  • Re-uploading someone else's work after altering or removing the original author information.
  • Any other form of theft or plagiarism that infringes Creators' rights.

Confirmed cases can result in blocked posts and restrictions on Canvas usage under the Terms of Service.

Auto-moderation is over-flagging​

Canvas runs automated moderation to keep the platform safe, and the team acknowledged it sometimes gets it wrong — legitimate creations being labelled "Sensitive Content" or temporarily blocked.

What happens next:

  • Mistakenly flagged or blocked content will be reviewed in sequence, with restrictions lifted where the content is legitimate.
  • If you need a faster review, or still have blocked posts, contact the Support Page directly.

The team says it will keep tuning the system. If you've had a build or Zoi wrongly flagged, the support route is the fast path rather than waiting for the queue.
