EU AI Act Article 50 enforcement began Aug 2, 2026 — every AI tool now signs its output
Your photos are carrying a paper trail.
See it. Strip it. Your call.
Camera makers, Adobe, Google and OpenAI now embed signed C2PA content credentials in images by default — generator name, device ID, sometimes GPS. Drop a file below to see exactly what's hidden inside it, and remove it with one click. Processed in memory, never written to disk, never sent anywhere else.

What's actually happening
01 · Read
The file is parsed as a raw byte stream — JPEG markers or PNG chunks — to locate every metadata segment: APP1 (EXIF/XMP), APP11 (C2PA JUMBF boxes), APP13 (IPTC).
02 · Report
Every segment found is listed in plain language before anything is touched: what it is, and what it typically contains.
03 · Strip
Flagged segments are cut from the byte stream. Nothing is re-encoded, so image quality is identical to the original.
Note: an invisible pixel watermark like Google's SynthID lives in the pixel data itself, not in metadata — no metadata tool, including this one, can remove it. This tool only removes what's stored in the file's metadata containers.
Questions
Is removing this metadata legal?
Removing metadata from images you own or created is legal in most jurisdictions. If content is genuinely AI-generated and you're distributing it in the EU, Article 50 of the EU AI Act expects it to carry a disclosure marker — check your own compliance obligations before stripping credentials from AI content meant for EU audiences.
Do you store my images?
No. Files are processed in server memory for the duration of the request and discarded immediately after the response is sent. Nothing is written to disk or logged.
Which formats are supported?
JPEG and PNG today. Both cover the overwhelming majority of images shared online and generated by current AI tools.
