AI Tag Remover: Strip “Made with AI”, C2PA & EXIF Labels
· 4 min read
AI images don’t just carry a visible logo — they carry hidden tags that label them as machine-made, even when nothing looks off. If a platform flagged your image or you just want a clean file, here’s every tag involved and how to remove it.
The AI tags hiding in your file
- C2PA Content Credentials — a tamper-evident record of what generated the image (ChatGPT, Gemini, Firefly…). The big one.
- “Made with AI” / digital-source-type — provenance flags some platforms read to auto-label content.
- EXIF & XMP — camera/software fields that can name the AI tool.
Full detail on the biggest one: removing C2PA and “Made with AI” metadata.
How to find them — free, in your browser
You can’t see these tags by looking at the image. Drop it into Unmarkr and it scans the file’s provenance markers right in your browser — nothing is uploaded for the check — and shows you exactly what’s embedded, including whether the image likely carries an invisible SynthID watermark.
How to remove them
Because these tags live in the file’s metadata (not the pixels), they’re stripped losslessly — your image is untouched. If yours also has a visible logo or a SynthID watermark, those are handled in the same flow. For AI images that carry no visible mark at all, see cleaning ChatGPT image metadata.
