Verify a Photo Is Real

Manipulated photos often leave metadata traces — Photoshop writes its version into the Software field, re-saved images show mismatched timestamps, and spliced photos have inconsistent EXIF across regions. Our authenticity checker examines these signals and flags suspicious patterns. Combined with the AI detector, you can distinguish real photos from both edited and fully generated images.

No single signal proves a photo is fake. The strongest evidence comes from combining multiple indicators: missing original camera data, editing software in metadata, unusual compression ratios, and timestamp inconsistencies.
