AI Video Detector
Upload a video to screen AI-generation risk, deepfake clues, and C2PA / Content Credentials markers.
How AI Video Detection Works
EyeSift reads the selected video locally and screens file-level signals such as dimensions, duration, estimated bitrate, aspect ratio, resolution, model-friendly sizing patterns, and C2PA / Content Credentials marker presence. These signals can help prioritize manual review, especially for short social clips, but they are not a forensic frame-by-frame verdict.
C2PA and Video Provenance
C2PA Content Credentials can travel with some video files and editing/export workflows. EyeSift checks for C2PA-style markers locally as a fast provenance clue. A marker is not the same as full signature verification, and missing markers do not prove a video is AI-generated because platforms often strip metadata.
Limitations
Video AI detection is an emerging field. Results should be considered preliminary. Very short clips, screen recordings, exports from editing apps, or heavily compressed videos may produce less reliable results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What AI video generators can this tool detect?
EyeSift can screen videos that may have been produced by tools such as Sora, Runway, Pika, Kling, and similar generators by checking local file, C2PA marker, and metadata clues. It does not claim forensic certainty; use the score to decide whether the video needs provenance checks and manual inspection.
Does EyeSift verify C2PA Content Credentials in video files?
EyeSift checks for C2PA / Content Credentials markers in the local video file as a provenance clue. It does not perform full cryptographic signature validation in the browser, so use a dedicated Content Credentials verifier when the result matters.
How does deepfake video detection work?
Practical deepfake review combines metadata, provenance, source credibility, visual inspection, and specialist forensic tools. EyeSift provides a browser-side triage score from available file signals such as resolution, duration, bitrate, aspect ratio, and generation-friendly dimensions.
What video formats and lengths are supported?
We support MP4, WebM, and MOV formats. For best results, upload videos under 100MB. Shorter clips (5-60 seconds) process faster, but longer videos can provide more data points for analysis. Heavily compressed videos or those recorded from screens may produce less reliable results due to lost visual detail.
Can AI-generated videos pass detection?
AI video generation is advancing rapidly. While current tools like Sora produce impressive results, they still exhibit telltale artifacts in temporal consistency, physics simulation, and fine details like text, hands, and reflections. However, as these models improve, detection becomes more challenging. We recommend combining automated detection with human visual inspection for critical verification.
Is video AI detection reliable enough for journalism?
AI video detection should be used as one verification tool among several in journalistic workflows. No automated detector is 100% accurate. Journalists should also check video provenance, metadata, source credibility, and use reverse video search. Our tool provides probability scores rather than definitive verdicts to support — not replace — editorial judgment.
Is my uploaded video stored anywhere?
No. Video processing happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your video is never uploaded to any server. The video data exists only in your browser memory during the session and is released when you close the page or clear the upload.
