Remove AI Metadata
from Images
Strip AI-generated tags, C2PA content credentials, and tool signatures from Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, Adobe Firefly, and 60+ other AI generators. Keep your camera data, dates, and GPS intact.
Strip AI Metadata Now
Upload an AI-generated image. We detect and remove AI markers while preserving all useful metadata. Your first use is free — no login required.
Why Remove AI Metadata?
Social platforms and marketplaces scan image metadata to flag AI-generated content. Removing these markers puts you in control of disclosure.
Instagram “Made with AI”
Instagram reads C2PA content credentials and IPTC DigitalSourceType to apply the “Made with AI” label. Remove these tags to prevent automatic labeling.
Pinterest Detection
Pinterest’s 2026 algorithm scans EXIF software tags and XMP metadata to flag AI-generated pins, reducing their distribution and reach.
Etsy & Marketplaces
Online marketplaces increasingly scan listing images for AI tool metadata. Clean metadata prevents false positives on edited (but not AI-generated) images.

How It Works
Upload
Upload your AI-generated image. Supports JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and WebP up to 25MB.
Detect & Strip
We scan all metadata fields for AI tool signatures, C2PA credentials, and generation parameters, then selectively remove only those tags.

Need Bulk AI Metadata Removal?
Pro users can upload up to 20 images at once and strip AI metadata from all of them in a single batch. Perfect for content creators managing large portfolios.
Upgrade to ProFrequently Asked Questions
How do I remove AI metadata from an image?
Upload your image to our tool. It automatically detects and removes AI-generated metadata including C2PA content credentials, software tags from Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, and other AI tools while preserving camera data and dates.
Will removing AI metadata affect image quality?
No. Only metadata tags are modified. The actual image pixels remain completely untouched. There is zero quality loss.
What AI tools does this detect and remove?
We detect and strip metadata from 60+ AI image generators including Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, Adobe Firefly, Flux, Ideogram, Leonardo AI, ComfyUI, and many more.
Does this remove the Instagram “Made with AI” label?
Instagram uses C2PA content credentials and IPTC DigitalSourceType metadata to detect AI images. Our tool removes both of these markers, which are the primary signals platforms use for AI labeling.
What metadata is preserved when stripping AI tags?
All non-AI metadata is preserved: dates (DateTimeOriginal, CreateDate), GPS coordinates, camera settings (aperture, ISO, shutter speed), lens info, copyright, and ICC color profiles.
Is it legal to remove AI metadata from images?
Metadata removal for personal use is legal in most jurisdictions. However, the EU AI Act (effective August 2026) will require machine-readable AI disclosure for commercially distributed content in Europe. Check your local regulations.
What is C2PA and why does it matter?
C2PA (Content Credentials) is a standard for embedding cryptographically signed provenance data in images. Major AI generators like DALL-E and Adobe Firefly embed C2PA by default. Platforms like Instagram and LinkedIn read these credentials to label AI content.
Can I remove AI metadata from multiple images?
Free users can process one image at a time. Pro users can upload and process up to 20 images in a single batch with our bulk AI metadata removal endpoint.
