FakeOut: AI Image & Video Detector + Fact Checker
Is that photo real or AI-generated? Is that video a deepfake? Is that viral message actually true?
FakeOut helps you check before you trust ā or share.

Why FakeOut?
- Honest about uncertainty. AI detectors aren't perfect ā we show you confidence levels, not just yes/no verdicts.
- C2PA-aware. When images carry verified provenance signatures (from Adobe Firefly, OpenAI, real cameras), we surface that evidence directly.
- Private by design. No personal data collected. No tracking. Your images and videos stay on your device ā only anonymized analysis is sent for AI checks.
- No account needed for fact-checking. Sign in only when you want to check images or videos.
Who It's For
Anyone who's ever paused on a photo or message and wondered: "wait, is this actually real?"
If you're tired of being unsure whether the image in your feed is genuine, the video is a deepfake, or the WhatsApp forward is true ā FakeOut is for you.

What FakeOut Is Not
We don't write fact-checks ourselves ā we surface existing ones from trusted journalists and fact-checkers. AI detection is a probabilistic tool, not a guaranteed verdict. Use FakeOut as one signal among several when something matters.
