●Newsrooms · Verification desks
Verify the image before it runs.
Check user-generated photos and video for AI generation, face swaps and missing provenance, in the minutes between a tip coming in and the story going out.
●Platform
Detect it. Explain it. Act on it.
Every scan returns the same three things: a result, the signals that produced it, and a decision you can route on.
01
Detect
Every file is scanned by independent models for images, video and faces, in the web tool, the extension or by API.
3 / 4 signals corroborateCalibrated likelihood
02
Explain
See which signals fired and how strongly. No single model decides; every result comes with its reasons.
Rule: likelihood ≥ 0.85 → Hold<3s
03
Route
Branch your workflow on the result. Clean items pass, flags go to review with a full audit trail.
●What we catch
What lands on the desk.
Flagged at the point of submission, before it reaches a reviewer.
01
Generated "breaking" images
Explosions, crowds and disasters created in seconds and shared before anyone checks.
02
Face-swapped public figures
Politicians and executives placed into scenes they were never in.
03
Recycled footage
Old or unrelated video re-captioned as a new event.
04
Stripped provenance
Images with no EXIF or Content Credentials, re-shared through several platforms.
The pipeline
A detector for each kind of media.
Image, video and voice each have their own detector. Their findings come back as one clear answer you can act on.
Image
Diffusion, GAN and face-swap images from Midjourney, DALL·E, Stable Diffusion, Flux and Firefly.
LiveVideo
Face swaps across 32 frames and fully generated video from Runway, Kling, Veo and Pika.
LiveVoice
Cloned and synthesised speech in calls, notes and recordings.
LiveWhat you get
Each file is marked Publish, Hold or Verify, with the likelihood, signals and audit ID behind it.
One answer●Desks
Built for deadline verification.
Triage incoming UGC while the story is still developing.
Document what was checked and what was found for every claim.
Screen images before they’re embedded or reposted.
●How it works
Three steps. One result.
Drop it in
Upload, paste a URL or scan in the browser with the extension.
Get the result
Likelihood, heatmap, signals and Content Credentials in seconds.
Log the check
Save the scan ID and report alongside your verification notes.
●Integration
Three ways in.
Start with the web app.
Scan in the web app or Chrome extension today. The REST API and MCP server for your AI agents are coming soon. Same detectors, same result, same audit trail.
Web app
AvailableUpload in the web app. Images, video and voice, up to 50 MB. Full results in seconds.
Chrome extension
AvailableScan any image or video from inside the tools your team already uses. No download, no upload.
API
SoonSingle scans, batch jobs and webhooks. Structured JSON with result, likelihood, signals and audit ID.
curl -X POST https://witness.vision/api/v1/detect \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $WITNESS_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"media_url": "https://…/ugc_submission_0412.jpg"}' → 200 OK · 412ms result: ai_generated · 0.94
●Why Witness
Built to be checked.
We say what the system does, what it returns and where its limits are.
Detection built per signal
Specialized models per signal, so you get more coverage and fewer false positives than one classifier.
Reasons, not just a score
Every result shows the signals behind it and where in the file they fired.
Analysed, then gone
Media is never stored, shared or used for training.
Provenance, when it exists
Reads Content Credentials from capture device to current file.

●Explore
One engine. Every surface.
The same detection, result and audit trail across every team that handles media.
Detection
AI image detector
Find out if an image was made by AI.
Explore →Detection
Face swap detection
Find out if the face in a photo or video has been replaced, reenacted or lip-synced.
Explore →Detection
C2PA checker
Read the Content Credentials inside an image or video: who signed it, what captured it, and every edit since.
Explore →Detection
AI video detector
Find out if a video was generated by AI or contains a face swap.
Explore →Product
Chrome extension
Scan media on any site, social feeds, news, claims portals, case files, and get a result in the side panel..
Explore →Can Witness confirm an image is authentic?
No tool can on its own. Witness tells you whether it found signs of AI generation or manipulation, so your desk knows where to look harder.
Does it read Content Credentials?
Yes. Witness checks for C2PA signatures and EXIF alongside the detection models.
Can my whole desk use it?
Yes. Talk to us about team accounts and shared scan history.
