Check a photo for AI metadata, C2PA and EXIF
Drop a photo or video to see every tag it carries: C2PA Content Credentials, AI generator names, IPTC “digital source type”, GPS location, date and camera. TagWipe reads the file in your browser and highlights AI markers — and can remove them in one click.

- Share menu: clean without opening the app
How it works
Choose files
Pick up to 50 photos or videos. TagWipe reads them in your browser and shows which tags each one carries.
Tick what to remove
AI tags, location, date and time, camera, or everything. Beside each box you see how many files have it.
Download clean copies
Every copy is read again and checked. The picture itself is not re-encoded, so quality stays exactly the same.
What the checker shows
- AI markers — C2PA manifests,
trainedAlgorithmicMediasource types, prompts and generator names such as Midjourney, DALL·E, Firefly, Stable Diffusion or ComfyUI parameters. - Location — GPS coordinates you can open on a map.
- Date and time — when the photo was taken and digitized.
- Camera — make, model, lens, serial numbers and exposure.
Choose files above and press Show tags on any of them.
How to tell if an image has AI metadata
Look for a C2PA (Content Credentials) block, an IPTC digital source type such as trainedAlgorithmicMedia, or software fields naming an AI tool. TagWipe marks these as AI marker. Their absence does not prove a picture is real: metadata is easy to remove, and many tools don’t write it at all.

What each checkbox removes
| Checkbox | Removes | Keeps |
|---|---|---|
| AI tags | C2PA / Content Credentials, XMP (incl. DigitalSourceType), IPTC, Software, Artist, captions, prompts, maker notes, thumbnails | Location, date and camera, unless ticked |
| Location | GPS coordinates, altitude, direction, city and country fields | Everything else |
| Date and time | Date taken, date digitized, time zone, GPS time stamp, video creation time | Everything else |
| Camera | Make, model, lens, serial numbers, exposure, ISO, aperture, focal length | Everything else |
| All metadata | Everything above and any other metadata | Only the color profile and orientation |
Supported formats
JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC and AVIF photos; MP4 and MOV videos. Photos up to 300 MB, videos of any size: a video is edited in place without being loaded into memory.
What TagWipe does not remove
Visible watermarks and invisible watermarks woven into the pixels themselves (for example Google SynthID) are not metadata, and no metadata tool can remove them. Platforms may also detect AI content in other ways.
Frequently asked questions
How can I check if a photo has C2PA Content Credentials?
Choose the photo above. If it has a C2PA manifest, TagWipe shows a “C2PA / JUMBF (Content Credentials)” tag marked as an AI marker.
Can this tell whether an image was made by AI?
It shows what the metadata says. Metadata can be removed or never written, so a file without AI tags may still be AI-generated, and pixel watermarks like SynthID are not visible to metadata tools.
Is it safe to check private photos?
Yes. The file is read only by your browser. Nothing is uploaded, stored or logged.
Does it show the location on a map?
Yes. If a photo has GPS coordinates, you can open them on OpenStreetMap. The map opens only when you press the button.
