Does my file stay on my device while using the tools?
Yes. The default path processes supported images locally in the browser. An API upload requires separate, explicit consent.

Free AI Transparency Tools
Five local inspection tools run directly in the tool hub. The standalone disclosure generator opens on the matching generator domain.
Disclosure Generator
Add visible disclosures and official EU icons locally.
Metadata Inspector
Inspect EXIF, IPTC and XMP metadata fields with zero file upload.
C2PA Checker
Verify C2PA Content Credentials, manifest chains, and signatures locally.
Privacy Metadata Cleaner
Strip sensitive GPS and camera metadata locally via clean re-encoding.
Verification Report
Record metadata and provenance state as a versioned JSON verification snapshot.
Video Inspector
Inspect MP4 and WebM video containers, codecs, and tracks locally.
Visible Notices & Machine-Readable Provenance
AI media transparency relies on two distinct layers: A visible overlay informs human viewers directly within the image. Machine-readable signals such as C2PA Content Credentials or XMP metadata store origin data securely in the file header. A robust workflow validates both layers post-export.
Recommended Disclosures
- “AI generated” for fully synthetic media
- “AI edited” for key elements modified post-creation
- “AI assisted” for human-led creation aided by AI tools

Visible disclosures vs. machine-readable labels
Why visible notices and machine-readable provenance solve different problems and become stronger when used together.
Transparency Tool Questions
Answers about C2PA validation, metadata stripping, and client-side processing.
What does it mean when no Content Credentials are found?
No parseable C2PA manifest was found. This does not establish whether the file is authentic or modified, and it does not show whether AI was used.
Which metadata does the Privacy Metadata Cleaner remove?
The cleaner locally re-encodes the image and then checks whether supported EXIF, IPTC and XMP fields were removed. The original file remains unchanged.
When is a file transferred to a server?
Never automatically in the standalone build. An enabled server function must be shown clearly and requires explicit confirmation before each transfer.
