Image Forensics Tool
Inspect an image for forensic signals, AI-generation patterns, metadata issues and manipulation traces.
What is image forensics?
Image forensics examines the technical and visual properties of an image to understand whether it may have been edited, generated or reposted.
It can help identify suspicious origin signals, missing metadata, compression artifacts and visual inconsistencies.
What image forensics can reveal
- Whether an image looks camera-original
- Whether the file resembles a screenshot
- Metadata removal or editor traces
- Manipulation and retouching indicators
- AI-generated image patterns
- Unusual semantic details
Image forensics and AI-generated content
AI-generated images can appear realistic, but they may still contain subtle inconsistencies in anatomy, objects, lighting or context.
Forensic image analysis helps combine technical evidence with visual reasoning.
How PhotoProof AI analyzes images
PhotoProof AI checks AI probability, deepfake risk, image origin, metadata, manipulation signals and semantic consistency.
The final report provides probability scores, explanations and authenticity indicators.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is image forensics the same as AI detection?
No. AI detection is one signal. Image forensics can also include metadata, origin, compression and manipulation checks.
Can image forensics detect edits?
It can identify possible signs of editing or recompression, but results should be treated as probabilistic.
What formats does PhotoProof AI support?
PhotoProof AI supports JPG, PNG and WEBP images.
