What the scanner checks

The browser reads EXIF, XMP and IPTC fields and checks for C2PA Content Credentials. The file remains on your device.

What metadata does not prove

Metadata can be edited or removed. A field can support an investigation, but it is not cryptographic proof of authorship or truth.

Runs in your browser

The check runs in your browser. Your file is not uploaded — it never reaches our servers. You can verify that in your browser's network tab while a scan runs.

For developers

Install the local scanner. It runs offline, reads the same signals as the hosted version, and emits the same JSON report schema.

LOCAL IN YOUR BROWSER

The file stays on your device. Every status is explained separately and can be reproduced in a JSON report.
