REAL
Likely captured, not generated.

● FAQ

Common questions.

Is Witness free?+

Yes — the web scanner is free to use, no account required. Higher-volume use, mobile, and enterprise features will be available on paid plans.

What happens to my image after I scan it?+

Witness processes your image to produce a verdict, then deletes it. Images are processed in ephemeral containers and never stored. We never share, sell, or train models on your uploads.

How accurate is Witness?+

Witness combines multiple detection models, each with strong published accuracy on standard benchmarks. Accuracy varies by image type — Witness shows its confidence so you know how much weight to give the result.

Can I use a Witness verdict in court?+

Witness is a strong first signal, not certified forensic evidence. For legal proceedings, pair a Witness scan with a qualified digital forensics expert.

Why is it called Witness?+

Because that's what you become when you can tell the difference. A witness sees clearly and says what they saw.

Don't guess.
Witness it.
