The highest accuracy for AI-generated media detection

Source: Study by the University of Rochester and the University of Kansas

This external research study employed 80,000 images, encompassing both real images and images synthesized by various text-to-image generators. These images were new and thus unknown to the study participants.
The research paper is available here.

Study results

Works across image generators.

Our Automated AI-generated image detection tool can help you determine the provenance and authenticity of images.

We help identify images across the most popular image generators such as:

MidJourney
DALL-E
Stable Diffusion
Ideogram
Flux
Bing Image Creator
GANs

The detection is based on the pixel content of the image, and therefore works even for images where meta-data has been stripped and where no watermark is available.

Watermarks and meta-data are not always integrated into AI-generated images. When users upload an image to popular apps or platforms, the meta-data is automatically stripped.
