Provenance Lens
Google SynthID detection and provenance status
Current Google SynthID verification paths, supported media and the checks Provenance Lens cannot perform today. Sourced and dated without guesswork.
Evidence, not guessing
Provenance Lens reports only what can be checked: a cryptographically signed manifest, a metadata field, a specific codepoint, a documented provider mechanism. When a signal cannot be checked, it says so. It never converts silence into a verdict.
What a report cannot prove
- A valid signature proves who signed a manifest, not that the manifest's claims are true.
- Metadata is trivially editable. Treat generator fields as an indication, never as proof.
- Hidden Unicode characters have many innocent causes, including ordinary copy-paste.
