How AI label removal works.
Clear the file records that platforms can read when they apply an AI label.
Your files are processed on your device and never uploaded.

Files never leave your device. No account. No uploads.
Read-only inspection. Switch to Image cleaner to remove metadata and export a copy.
Content Credentials were detected. Cleaning removes these records of image origin and edits. Keep an original copy, and disclose AI-generated content where required.
Share the picture, not your location or camera details.
Prepare cleaner files for social posts, product listings, and everyday sharing.
Metadata cleanup doesn't remove visible or pixel-based watermarks, or guarantee that a platform won't apply an AI label. Read the limits
What removing an AI label really means
An AI label is added by the platform that shows your image. It isn't painted onto the file, so no tool can erase it from a post that already has one. What you can change is the file you upload next.
This tool rebuilds your image from its pixels and leaves the original records behind, including Content Credentials (C2PA), XMP, IPTC, EXIF, and PNG text. After cleaning, it scans the new copy and tells you if any supported metadata is still there.
You can use the tool here or on the homepage AI label and metadata remover. They work the same way.
Where AI labels come from
Platforms can use several signals. Cleaning a file only affects the first two.
- Content Credentials: a signed record of how an image was made. Removed.
- IPTC and XMP fields: a standard value such as
trainedAlgorithmicMediacan mark generated content. Removed. - Pixel watermarks: invisible marks such as SynthID live in the picture itself. Not removed.
- Visual classifiers: some platforms analyze how an image looks. Not affected.
- Your own disclosure: a label you chose when posting. Not affected.
When to use it, and when to leave a label alone
It makes sense when your file carries records you don't want to share, such as editing history, device details, or AI prompts saved in a PNG. It's also useful for seeing what a file declares when a real photo has been flagged.
If AI created an image or meaningfully changed it, the label is doing its job. Removing a record doesn't change how an image was made, and many platforms require you to disclose realistic AI content. Read how to disclose AI content before you post.

A few things to know
Questions, answered.
Will this guarantee that an AI label disappears?
No. It removes supported file metadata, but platforms can also use pixel watermarks, visual detection, and other signals.
Can I remove a label from a post I already published?
No. The label belongs to the post on that platform, and cleaning a file on your device cannot change it.
Does it remove visible watermarks or SynthID?
No. Visible marks and invisible pixel watermarks are part of the picture, and this tool only leaves file metadata behind.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Scanning and cleaning run in your browser, and your files are never sent to a server.
