Our detector is trained to recognise patterns from all major AI image generators.
Midjourney
Photorealistic and artistic images from text prompts. Widely used for fake portraits and concept art.
DALL-E 3
OpenAI's image generator. Produces coherent scenes and detailed portraits that can fool casual inspection.
Stable Diffusion
Open-source model with thousands of community variants. Used in deepfake pipelines for face generation.
Adobe Firefly
Professional-grade AI image generation built into Adobe's suite. Often used for commercial manipulation.
Flux
Next-generation model producing exceptionally realistic images. One of the hardest to detect visually.
GAN-based models
Generative Adversarial Networks produce synthetic faces at scale. Used in fake profile photo generators like thispersondoesnotexist.com.
Statistical pattern analysis
AI image generators introduce characteristic statistical distributions in pixel values that differ from real photographs. Our model detects these distributions even when the image looks photorealistic.
Generative model fingerprinting
Different AI models leave identifiable patterns in texture, edge rendering, and noise characteristics. These fingerprints persist even after compression and resizing.
Semantic consistency checking
AI models sometimes generate objects that look correct individually but don't make sense together — text that isn't readable, backgrounds with inconsistent physics, anatomical irregularities.
Probability scoring
Rather than a binary yes/no, we give you a 0–100% probability that an image is AI-generated. This reflects genuine uncertainty: a 60% score means proceed with caution, not definitive confirmation.
Fact-checking news images
Verify whether images in news articles, social media posts, or viral stories are real before sharing them.
Verifying business contacts
A new supplier or business contact sent a headshot. Check if it's a real person or an AI-generated identity.
Online dating verification
Profile photos that look too perfect. Most romance scammers now use AI-generated faces.
Research and journalism
Researchers and journalists need to verify image authenticity before publishing or citing sources.
HR and recruitment
Verifying that job applicant photos correspond to real individuals, not synthetic identities.
Content licensing
Determine whether stock images or submitted content was AI-generated versus originally photographed.
No AI detector is 100% accurate. As AI generation models improve, detection becomes harder. A result of "likely real" doesn't guarantee an image is authentic — it means our analysis found no strong AI-generation signals.
Treat the probability score as one signal among several. Always consider the context: who sent this, why, and what they're asking you to do with it.
AI image generators like Midjourney, DALL-E 3, and Stable Diffusion leave statistical fingerprints in the images they produce. Our AI detector analyses these patterns and returns a probability score indicating how likely the image is to be AI-generated. While it doesn't always identify the exact model, it reliably flags AI-generated content.
Our detector uses Hive Moderation's state-of-the-art AI classifier, which is trained on millions of real and AI-generated images. Accuracy varies by model and version — very recent AI models may occasionally evade detection as they improve. The tool gives you a probability score with an explanation, so you can make an informed judgment rather than receiving a simple yes/no.
It depends on the degree of editing. Light filters and colour adjustments may not significantly affect detection. Heavy editing, compositing, or AI-enhancement (like using AI to upscale or inpaint parts of a real photo) may increase the AI-generation probability score even if the base image was originally real. We always explain what we found so you can interpret the result in context.
No — they solve different problems. Reverse image search (Google, TinEye) tells you where an image has appeared online. Our AI image detector tells you whether the image itself was generated by AI. A deepfake or AI-generated image may never have appeared online before, so reverse search wouldn't help — but our detector still would.
The detector supports JPG/JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF formats. Maximum file size is 20MB. Video deepfake detection (MP4, MOV) is coming soon.
