How does AI image detection work?
AI image generators leave subtle statistical traces — in textures, edges, lighting, and fine detail — that differ from how cameras capture the world. An AI image detector analyzes those signals to estimate whether an image was synthesized. As generators improve, no detector can promise certainty, but a fast check still catches the large share of AI visuals that would otherwise slip by unnoticed.
When to check whether an image is AI-generated
Before trusting a product photo on a marketplace listing. When a news image or profile picture looks slightly off. Before licensing or republishing artwork. When verifying that a person in a photo is real. In all of these, a few seconds of checking is cheaper than acting on a fake.
Detect AI images right in your browser
CheckAI's free Chrome extension brings detection to wherever you browse. Right-click any image on a page to check it, or capture a screenshot of an area and analyze that — no copy-pasting into a separate tool. It is the fastest way to vet visuals as you encounter them.
