How do I check if a photo is AI-generated?

Upload any image or paste a URL. Image Analyze runs 5 independent checks — AI detection (SightEngine), camera metadata extraction, pixel forensics, reverse image search, and content safety screening — then gives you a clear verdict: Likely Authentic, Inconclusive, or AI Generation Likely.

Can it detect Midjourney, DALL-E, and Stable Diffusion images?

Yes. Our AI detection engine is trained on images from Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, and other popular generators. We combine AI pixel analysis with metadata and forensic signals for a more reliable result than any single detector.

You get 2 free checks with no signup required. Each check runs the complete analysis pipeline — no feature gating. If you need more, check packs start at $4.99 for 5 checks.

How accurate is AI detection?

No AI detector is 100% accurate, which is why we combine 5 independent signals into a composite confidence score. You get a clear verdict plus full transparency into each signal so you can make an informed judgment.

Images are stored securely in encrypted Azure Blob Storage for processing. You can delete your data at any time through your account settings.

Use case

Romance Scam Photo Check

When a romance-scam concern starts with a photo, the goal is not to prove everything from the image alone. The useful question is whether the photo, its online history, and the surrounding story stay consistent under review.

What to check first

Whether reverse image search finds the same photo elsewhere
Whether the top matches point to unrelated profiles or websites
Whether the image shows AI-generation indicators or unusual polish
Whether the account behavior supports the image story

Why the image matters

In many scam situations, the photo is one of the easiest parts of the story to test. A reused or suspicious image does not tell you everything, but it can quickly show whether more caution is warranted.

What not to assume

A polished or attractive image is not proof of a scam, and missing metadata is not proof of deception. The strongest interpretation comes from several clues pointing in the same direction.
