Is that photo real, or was it generated by AI? ImageVerify gives you the answer — instantly, privately, and with a confidence score you can trust. Unlike other AI detectors, ImageVerify preprocesses every image locally on your device before analysis. EXIF data is stripped, colors are normalized, and compression is optimized. Your photos never leave your device in their original form, and we never store or share them. UNIQUE DETECTION PIPELINE ImageVerify combines a third-party AI detection API with a local auxiliary scoring engine. The result is a percentage-based confidence score that reflects both the API verdict and local image characteristics. You get a more nuanced answer than a simple "AI or real." DETECTION HISTORY & ANALYTICS Every scan is saved to your local archive. Filter by date, verdict, or confidence level. See how many AI-generated images you've encountered over time. Most detectors show a one-time result — ImageVerify helps you track patterns. PRIVACY FIRST, BY DESIGN - Images are preprocessed locally before analysis. - EXIF metadata is stripped on-device. - No image is ever stored on our servers. - No account registration required. SUBSCRIPTION OPTIONS Unlock unlimited detections with an auto-renewable subscription: - Weekly: $2.99 (3-day free trial) - Monthly: $7.99 - Yearly: $34.99 All subscriptions include unlimited AI image detection, no ads, and priority support. Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscription automatically renews unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel your subscriptions by going to your account settings on the App Store after purchase. WHO IS IMAGEVERIFY FOR? - Social media users verifying viral images - Journalists and fact-checkers confirming photo authenticity - Content creators protecting their reputation - Anyone who wants to know what's real Privacy Policy: https://imagedetect.larklift.com/privacy.html Terms of Service: https://imagedetect.larklift.com/terms.html
