Metadata and AI-Training Deterrents

EXIF removal, NoAI metadata, noise, color variation, grid patterns, and NoAI hidden text embedding

With Premium, you can use EXIF removal, NoAI metadata tags, noise disruption, color variation, grid patterns, and NoAI hidden text embedding as AI-training deterrents.

EXIF Removal

Photos may include EXIF metadata such as shooting date, device information, and location data. Enabling the EXIF removal setting at export time strips this metadata before publishing (Premium only). Results may vary depending on the image format and source file.

NoAI Metadata Tags

You can add NoAI-related tags to the image metadata to indicate that you do not want the image used for AI training (Premium only). Whether these tags are respected depends on the AI service or platform.

Noise, Color Variation, Grid Patterns, and NoAI Hidden Text Embedding

Subtle noise patterns, color variations, grid overlays, and NoAI hidden text can be added to images as AI-training deterrents that are difficult to detect with the naked eye (Premium only). These features do not completely prevent AI training. They are intended as a signal of intent and a deterrent.

Image with noise disruption, color variation, grid patterns, and NoAI hidden text embedding applied

This image has noise disruption, color variation, grid patterns, and NoAI hidden text embedding applied. They are almost impossible to notice with the naked eye. The grid and NoAI hidden text follow the watermark visibility setting, so increasing the visibility makes them easier to see.

Tips: Since these effects are difficult to see with the naked eye, you can use the Magic Magnifier feature to check how NoAI hidden text, grid patterns, and watermarks are applied.
