AI Image Checker

Upload a photo below to check it in a few simple steps. You'll see an overall result plus the signs behind it, so you know what you're looking at instead of just one number.

Three simple steps

Checking a photo takes three steps: choose your file, run the check, and read the result.

Each report shows the overall result first, then the signs behind it, so you can look closer at anything that seems important.

What to look at in your result

  • The overall result — how likely the photo is to have been made or changed by AI
  • Signs around faces, if the photo includes people
  • File details, like camera and date information
  • Signs the file was saved or compressed more than once
  • Signs of editing or retouching
  • Whether the scene looks visually consistent

Signs worth a closer look

Some AI-made images show unusual details, such as odd hands, mismatched shadows, garbled text, repeated patterns, or objects that don't quite fit the scene.

These signs are helpful, but not final on their own. Low resolution, heavy compression, screenshots, and blur can all make a real photo look more suspicious than it is.

After you get a result

Read the overall result together with the signs behind it. If something still feels uncertain, it can help to check the photo's source or compare it with the related guides below.

No single check gives a final answer. Use the result as one useful input among others.

Frequently asked questions

How do I check if an image was made by AI?

Upload the photo above and run the check. You'll get an overall result plus signs from the file details, any faces in the photo, and how consistent the scene looks.

Can compression or screenshots affect the result?

Yes. Screenshots, blur, and heavy compression can remove some of the details a check relies on, which can lower confidence in the result.

Is the result a final answer?

No. The result is an estimate based on several signs. Use it alongside what you already know about the photo, not as a stand-alone verdict.

Quick answer

AI-generated images can contain visual artifacts, metadata inconsistencies, and statistical patterns that detection tools evaluate as probabilistic signals.

Key facts

  • Primary entity: AI-generated image
  • Topic cluster: AI Detection
  • Search intent: commercial
  • Content type: Guide

Methodology

  • Separate AI-generation probability from authenticity confidence.
  • Combine visual, metadata, manipulation, compression, provenance, and context signals.
  • Explain uncertainty and limits instead of presenting binary proof.

Pros & limitations

  • AI and forensic detection should be interpreted as probabilistic evidence, not absolute proof.
  • Reliable authenticity decisions should combine model output with provenance, context, metadata, and human review.
