Reading Discrimination Analysis output
What you can safely infer from a result - and what you must not.
Intended task
Flag documented exclusionary and discriminatory language patterns tied to protected classes - for human or policy review.
Input requirements
text- the only field analyzed; up to 4,096 Unicode code points. Over the limit is rejected withinput_too_long, never truncated.language- must be a language this analyzer supports. Unsupported codes are rejected with400 unsupported_language, never analyzed as a different language.analyzers- include"discrimination"; up to 2 analyzers per request, one billed run each.- No context beyond
text- no user IDs, history, profiles, or attachments are read or inferred. - Sees only the submitted text - the writer's identity, role, and the document's legal context are not inputs.
Ordinary positive
“Applicants must be under 40 and born in this country - no exceptions.”
Safe inference: The text matches documented exclusion patterns on two protected classes. Route it to review with the labels attached.
Confusing negative · Quotation
“The handbook's old rule - "applicants must be born in this country" - was struck down in 2019.”
What happens: The exclusion pattern can still match the quoted clause. Signals flag the language for review - they do not read the surrounding context that makes this a compliance document describing a repealed rule.
Why it's tricky: Audits, legal analysis, and journalism all quote discriminatory language. Ambiguous phrasing ("we need someone young and energetic") may produce weak or no signals - absence is "not detected," never clearance. Both cases are why flagged text goes to review, not to automatic verdicts.
What you can safely infer
- Which documented protected-class patterns the text matched, and at what strength.
- That the result is reproducible - the receipt ties the labels to the configuration that produced them.
What you must not infer
- ✕That unlawful discrimination occurred - legality is a determination for your counsel and jurisdiction.
- ✕The author's intent, or that a specific person was harmed.
- ✕That clean text contains no exclusionary content - a missing signal is "not detected," never "compliant."
Boundary: Discrimination signals flag exclusionary language for review - they do not determine that unlawful discrimination occurred, and they say nothing about intent.
Using Indicators in API Responses
When you call /v1/analyze, the response includes matched indicators with signal-match scores. Each signal is identified by its code and includes a level field (“category” or “label”). A score expresses signal-match strength under a particular analyzer configuration. It is not a probability that the signal or a downstream action is correct. Validate action thresholds on representative labeled data.
