Verify a photo’s authenticity before you publish it

Eleven forensic analysis modules — AI-generated image detection, manipulation, C2PA provenance and reverse image search — to find the truth behind every image.

Developed by Digitum Consulting. Available now at enqueteur.digitumconsulting.com.

Why now

A misleading photo spreads faster than it can be checked

Four realities facing photographers, newsrooms and anyone who shares an image.

  • 01

    AI-generated images are becoming harder to spot with the naked eye

    Recent generators produce images realistic enough to fool a trained eye — human review alone is no longer enough.

  • 02

    Asking a general-purpose AI “is this real?” is not enough

    Consumer chat assistants are not built for forensic detection and are regularly wrong — a dedicated tool, with specialized signals, gives a more reliable verdict.

  • 03

    Manipulation goes beyond AI generation

    Retouching, cloning, misleading crops: a photo that was authentic at first can be altered afterwards. No single signal is enough to decide.

  • 04

    Digital provenance is becoming a requirement

    The C2PA standard and industry practices increasingly require that an image’s origin and history be verifiable, not merely asserted.

The solution

Eleven analysis signals, one clear verdict

Drop in a photo, or a whole batch — the technical analysis runs directly in your browser.

  • ANALYSIS

    Eleven forensic analysis modules

    Metadata and provenance, embedded thumbnail, file traces, Error Level Analysis, clone detection, noise and frequency analysis, shadow and lighting consistency, time and sun-position consistency, AI-generated image detection, reverse image search.

  • VERDICT

    A clear, nuanced verdict

    Green, yellow or red, with a percentage and the precise list of doubts raised — to decide quickly without losing nuance.

  • TRACKING

    Examination log and PDF report

    Batch analysis, a complete log with statuses, labels and near-duplicate detection, then a structured PDF report with the file’s fingerprint, ready for the record.

  • PROVENANCE

    C2PA provenance

    Reads and verifies the content credentials signed by the capture device or creation tool, when they exist.
