Sightengine offers an AI image detector designed to identify images that have been generated or altered by artificial intelligence.

It serves both robust content moderation needs and quick verification checks.

Key Features:

  • Free scans available.
  • Capable of processing large volumes of images efficiently.
  • Compatible with images from major AI generators like MidJourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, and others.

Limitations and Considerations:

  • Can struggle with AI-altered images (avoid using it on X/Twitter to prove a point).
  • Usage at scale can lead to significant costs, especially for high-volume applications.

This tool helps businesses and individuals detect fake images in three scenarios - stopping AI fake news, catching fraudulent photos, and enforcing content rules on platforms.

It operates by analyzing the pixel content of images to determine if they are AI-generated, using advanced algorithms to detect patterns characteristic of images from AI-generated images.

It does not rely on metadata or watermarks but evaluates images based on a trained AI model that assigns a probability score indicating the likelihood of AI generation.
