Image source review

Review art contest submissions with evidence

Use source clues as one part of a fair review. Collect original files, process records and the creator’s explanation.

Source clues are checked in your browser first. When needed, file-header data and a smaller image copy may be sent to our backend and detection provider. Model copies have embedded metadata removed. Image URLs are retrieved by our server; see the privacy policy for processing and provider retention. Privacy details

Step 1

Publish clear contest rules

Explain which AI tools and edits are allowed before accepting work. Apply the same process to all participants.

Step 2

Request originals and process files

Ask for original images, RAW files when applicable, layers, sketches or generation records. EXIF and source declarations are editable, not authenticity certificates.

Step 3

Use checks as supporting evidence

Inspect source clues and optional model results. This tool does not validate C2PA signatures or prove cheating, authorship or copyright ownership.

Step 4

Offer an appeal process

Keep an evidence record and let the entrant explain. A screenshot, absent metadata or an inconclusive result is not grounds for automatic disqualification.

Questions and limitations

Can this certify human-made artwork?

No. A report card records a check, not a certificate. Use original files and process evidence.

Does missing metadata prove AI generation?

No. Exports, screenshots and recompression may remove metadata. Missing information is not proof.

How are submissions processed?

Local clues are checked first; a header fragment and smaller copy may go to the backend/provider when needed. Review the privacy policy before checking confidential submissions.
