How the check works

1. Submit media
Upload an image or video, or paste a link (e.g. TikTok, YouTube).
2. Forensic analysis
We check provenance and statistical AI traces - with multiple models.
3. Honest result
You get an assessment with a probability and a shareable certificate.

What can you check?

AI or Authentic? inspects the media itself - not just a platform label.

AI-generated images (e.g. from diffusion models)yes
AI edits and deepfakesyes
Provenance records (C2PA Content Credentials)yes
AI-generated and manipulated videosyes

Honest, not falsely certain

No detection is 100% certain. When the evidence isn't enough - e.g. with heavily compressed reposts - we deliberately say "inconclusive" instead of guessing. Better honestly unsure than wrongly accusing someone. More on this under Methodology & limits.

Frequently asked questions

How does the check work?▾

We do not rely on a single model but combine several complementary signals: signature-verified evaluation of provenance records (C2PA / Content Credentials), our own trained model for videos, an ensemble of image forensic detectors, and a calibrated fusion of this evidence into a transparent result. Verified provenance outweighs any pure model score.

How reliable is the detection?▾

There is no hundred percent reliable detection, especially on heavily compressed social-media reposts. That is why we honestly return “inconclusive” when the evidence is not enough, instead of guessing. The result is always an assessment with reasoning, not a blind percentage verdict.

Which files and links can I check?▾

Images and videos, either as a direct upload or as a link (e.g. TikTok, YouTube). Instagram and Facebook links often cannot be loaded because of the login wall; in that case it is best to save the media and upload it directly.

What happens to my uploaded files?▾

The checked original is deleted after the analysis and not stored permanently. The check only happens after your explicit consent. Details are in the privacy policy.

Is the check free?▾

Yes, checking images and videos is free to use.

Why does the result sometimes say “inconclusive”?▾

When the available evidence points neither clearly to real nor clearly to AI-generated, we honestly report it as “inconclusive” instead of faking certainty. That is a deliberate result, not an error.
