What the Facebook Preflight Scan Can Confirm
- Embedded C2PA credentials in the selected file
- Confirmed AI-related XMP in supported packets
- Supported prompt or workflow text stored in PNG files
Preparing a real photo, product image, or campaign asset for Facebook? Scan the exported JPG or PNG for supported AI-related metadata before posting.
Quick Answer
Facebook AI Info can reflect an industry signal or disclosure, but it does not explain every platform decision. This scan identifies supported fields in your file; it cannot remove a label from a live post or predict how Facebook will treat a new upload.

Start with where you see the label. A local image file, a published post, and a profile notice need different next steps.
| Situation | Next step |
|---|---|
| You have not published yet | Check the final JPG or PNG above. Review the findings and download a verified copy when supported targets are found. |
| The post is already live | This tool cannot edit that post. Check Facebook's current help and available review options; do not delete a post just to test metadata cleanup. |
| The label is on your profile | An account notice is separate from image metadata. Use the platform's account help rather than repeatedly cleaning the same file. |
| The scan finds no supported AI metadata | Check that you selected the final export. Unsupported fields, disclosures, or platform systems may still matter; a clean scan is not a platform prediction. |
Product and brand teams often work with several exports from different editing tools. Add the final files as one batch so each image gets its own result instead of assuming the whole set is clean.
One unsupported or failed file does not stop the other checks. Downloads are offered only for copies that pass verification, and the original files remain unchanged.
01
Collect the final JPG and PNG exports you intend to publish.
02
Scan the files locally, one result per image, without sending their contents to this site.
03
Download only the copies marked File-level clean copy ready.
04
Keep the originals for provenance, editing history, and future revisions.
Official documentation supports the platform and file-format claims below. Community posts show reported questions, not proof of platform behavior.
Official source
Explains industry-shared signals, self-disclosure, and Meta's changing treatment of generated versus edited content.
User discussion
Demand signal: users ask what a label means and whether an existing post can be changed. The thread is not an official Meta source.
A real photo can still carry a Content Credential or AI-related editing record. Meta also describes disclosure and other platform systems, so one notice does not prove the whole image was generated.
Check supported file signals before posting a lightly edited real photo.
