EyeSift AI Image Analyzer: Photo Analysis, AI Detector & C2PA Check
Upload an image to analyze photo metadata, C2PA / Content Credentials markers, EXIF, compression, dimensions, pixel patterns, and AI-generation risk from tools like Midjourney, DALL-E, or Stable Diffusion.
Quick answer
AI photo analyzer
Checks dimensions, EXIF presence, C2PA marker presence, compression density, luminance distribution, edge patterns, and generator metadata.
Private
Browser-only check
Your photo is analyzed locally in the browser and is not uploaded to EyeSift servers.
Best use
Screening signal
Use the score to prioritize review, then inspect provenance and context for high-stakes cases.
How AI Image Detection Works
EyeSift analyzes practical browser-readable signals: image dimensions, EXIF signature presence, C2PA / Content Credentials marker presence, compression density, luminance distribution, and edge variation. AI-generated images from Midjourney, DALL-E, and Stable Diffusion can leave statistical clues, but edited photos, screenshots, exports, and social-media compression can blur those signals.
AI Image Analysis vs AI Image Detection
Image analysis is broader than a yes-or-no detector. EyeSift explains what the file itself reveals: whether provenance markers may exist, whether EXIF is present, whether the file looks heavily compressed, whether dimensions match model-friendly export sizes, and whether pixel-level signals are unusually smooth or noisy. The AI-risk score is only one part of that analysis.
C2PA and Content Credentials
C2PA Content Credentials can store provenance metadata in media files using JUMBF-based manifests. EyeSift checks for local C2PA-style markers as a fast browser-side provenance clue. A marker is not the same as full signature verification, and no marker does not prove an image is fake because many apps strip metadata during export or upload.
Source Check
C2PA is an open provenance standard for certifying the source and history of media content. EyeSift only performs a local marker scan; full Content Credentials verification requires validating the manifest and signatures in a dedicated verifier. See the C2PA specification and the Content Credentials Verify tool.
Supported Formats
We support PNG, JPEG, WebP, and GIF images. For best results, use the original uncompressed image. Screenshots and heavily compressed images may reduce detection accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this detector identify images from Midjourney, DALL-E, and Stable Diffusion?
EyeSift checks image dimensions, EXIF presence, C2PA / Content Credentials markers, compression density, luminance distribution, and edge patterns that may differ between AI-generated images and camera photos. These signals can help screen images from Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, and similar tools, but the result is probabilistic rather than definitive.
What is the difference between an AI image analyzer and an AI image detector?
An AI image detector returns a probability-style verdict, while an AI image analyzer shows the signals behind the verdict. EyeSift combines both: it gives a screening score and explains metadata, compression, dimension, and pixel-pattern clues.
What image formats and sizes work best?
We support PNG, JPEG, WebP, and GIF formats. For the most useful results, upload the original image rather than a screenshot or re-saved copy. Each compression cycle strips metadata and changes pixel patterns. Images at least 512x512 pixels provide better analysis data.
Does the detector check EXIF metadata?
Yes. EyeSift checks for an EXIF signature in browser memory where available. Real camera JPEGs often contain EXIF metadata, while generated or heavily exported images may not. Missing EXIF is only a weak signal because social apps and editors often remove metadata from real photos.
Does EyeSift verify C2PA Content Credentials?
EyeSift checks for C2PA / Content Credentials markers in the local file as a provenance clue. It does not perform full cryptographic signature verification in the browser, so a marker should be inspected with a dedicated Content Credentials verifier when the result matters.
Why might a real photo be flagged as AI-generated?
False positives can occur with heavily edited photos, HDR images, studio photography, screenshots, stock photos with extensive retouching, or images that have been through multiple compression cycles. The result should be treated as a screening estimate, not a definitive judgment.
Is my uploaded image stored on your servers?
No. Image analysis runs in your browser. Your image is not uploaded to EyeSift servers and is released from local browser memory when you clear it or leave the page.
