MidJourneyThe detection is based on the pixel content of the video, and therefore works even for videos where meta-data has been stripped and where no watermark is available.
Watermarks and meta-data are not always integrated into AI-generated videos. When users upload a video to popular apps or platforms, the meta-data is automatically stripped.
The Sora, Wan, Veo, Kling, Runway, and MidJourney trademarks and logos are the property of their respective trademark holders. They are not affiliated with Sightengine.
Our API was designed by developers for developers. We have worked hard to make it simple and quick to integrate with.
