FAQ

FAQ: AI Image Detector & AI Image Checker

Everything you need to know about AI image detection, deepfake detection and fake photo checking.

How do I detect if an image is AI generated?+

Detecting AI images with Scannerfy is simple: upload your photo via drag & drop or click to browse. Our algorithm instantly checks for characteristics of AI generators like Midjourney, DALL-E 3 or Stable Diffusion. We analyze pixel consistency, texture coherence, lighting patterns and AI-specific artifacts – for example distorted fingers, unnatural hair or inconsistent backgrounds. You get a clear percentage score: over 50% means AI generated, under 50% means most likely a real photo. Results in under 5 seconds – free and no sign up required.

What is an AI image detector and how does it work?+

An AI image detector is an automated analysis tool that checks whether a photo was created by an AI generator like Midjourney, DALL-E 3 or Stable Diffusion. Scannerfy analyzes multiple image characteristics simultaneously: pixel patterns, texture consistency, metadata, lighting behavior and AI-specific artifacts. Machine learning detects patterns invisible to the human eye – including characteristic noise signatures of each generator. Simply upload your image, the AI detector analyzes it in under 5 seconds and gives you a clear percentage score. Over 50% means AI generated – under 50% most likely a real photo. Free, no sign up, GDPR compliant.

How can I detect deepfakes?+

Detecting deepfakes with Scannerfy is easy: upload the suspicious photo and our system analyzes it instantly. Our algorithm is specifically trained on facial manipulations – detecting inconsistencies in skin tone, lighting, hairlines and eyes. Typical deepfake signs include: blurred edges around the face, unnatural eyes, wrong shadows under chin and neck, and pixel artifacts at ears or hairline. Especially for profile photos from the internet, dating apps or social media – a quick check is always worthwhile. Results in seconds – free, no sign up, GDPR compliant.

Which AI image generators can Scannerfy detect?+

Scannerfy detects images from the most popular AI generators: Midjourney (all versions), DALL-E 3 (OpenAI), Stable Diffusion, Adobe Firefly, Imagen (Google), Bing Image Creator, Leonardo AI and more. Our analysis reaches up to 99.8% accuracy.

Is Scannerfy free to use?+

Yes, Scannerfy is completely free – no sign up, no credit card required. Detecting AI images and checking photo authenticity is 100% free. Simply upload your image and get instant results.

Are my uploaded images stored or shared?+

No. Your images are not permanently stored and are never used for AI training. All transfers are encrypted. Once your result is ready, your photo is gone from our servers.

How accurate is the AI image detection?+

Scannerfy achieves a detection rate of up to 99.8% with current AI models. Results always show a probability score, not an absolute verdict – for full transparency.

How Does an AI Image Detector Work?

What is an AI image detector?

An AI image detector is a tool that analyzes whether a photo, picture, or image was taken by a real person or generated by artificial intelligence. Scannerfy is a free AI photo and picture checker — no account needed, just upload and get your answer in seconds.

What patterns does the AI image detector recognize?

AI generators like Midjourney, DALL-E 3 and Stable Diffusion leave characteristic traces in images: slightly distorted fingers and hands, over-smoothed hair textures, unnaturally symmetrical eyes, inconsistent light sources and repetitive background patterns. Our AI image detector is specifically trained to identify these signatures – with an accuracy rate of up to 99.8%.

Who uses it?

Everyday users check profile pictures on Tinder, Bumble, or Instagram before trusting a stranger. Journalists verify photos before publishing a story. HR teams spot fake headshots in job applications. Businesses protect themselves from fraudulent imagery in contracts and press kits.

Free & private

Whether you call it an AI image detector, an AI photo checker, or an AI picture detector — Scannerfy does the same thing: tells you in seconds if what you're looking at is real. Free, fast, no sign up required. Your photos are never stored or shared.
