What problems is Amazon Rekognition solving and how is that benefiting you?

If you have a service that aggregates and presents media from the public, you are always in "danger" of the content being "inappropriate". Of course, Facebook, Google and other large companies have teams of people ensuring that such content is appropriate (in their respective sites). If you are a smaller player, Rekognition comes to your rescue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
