Remove image metadata online

Prepare a copy for sharing with less embedded information. Cleanup can remove fields mentioning AI generation without changing pixels or promising undetectability.

How to remove image metadata

  1. Select a static JPG, PNG or WebP image of up to 12 megapixels.
  2. Choose broad cleanup or only known location fields.
  3. Read and confirm the impact on provenance credentials. Keep the original.
  4. Process and download the image and report. Review removed and retained fields.

Can I remove AI indicators from image metadata?

Remove image metadata deletes descriptive fields that may include creation software, prompts, authorship and location. It creates a copy and a report of removed and retained fields. This does not erase invisible pixel watermarks or statistical patterns and does not make an image undetectable.

Does metadata cleanup change colors or quality?

Cleanup does not recompress the pixels. The copy is reopened to verify displayed pixels, orientation and color profile. If verification fails, no result is released. The original stays intact; download and review the copy before sharing.

What happens to C2PA credentials?

C2PA credentials record signed information about creation and editing. Cleanup requires confirmation and removes embedded credentials from the copy because editing metadata can invalidate the binding. Keep the original. External records may remain accessible; missing C2PA does not prove authenticity.

Do I need an account? How many free uses do I get?

You can start without logging in. You get 5 uses per IP per day, shared by people on the same IP and reset at midnight in Brasília. Creating an account does not reset the allowance. Analysis and cleanup are separate tools: each completed operation follows the system usage accounting.

Are my files public or sent to an external AI?

Files are linked to your session or account and are excluded from the sitemap and public pages. Image analysis and cleanup run on the User PDF server without sending images to external AI providers. Public-edition results normally expire after 60 minutes; download them within the displayed period.
