Why This Can Happen

  • Adobe documents that Content Credentials can be attached to files, stored in the cloud, or omitted depending on export choices.
  • Generative Fill, Expand, and similar features can leave supported file-level signals behind the final export.
  • A cleaned local copy removes supported metadata only and does not alter the visible export.

What the Tool Can Check

  • Embedded Content Credentials in supported JPG or PNG exports
  • Confirmed AI-related XMP packets from export metadata
  • Prompt or workflow-style text fields when present

What the Tool Cannot Change

  • Visible Photoshop edits
  • Photoshop export settings you already used
  • Platform labeling rules outside the file

Step-by-Step Pre-Publish Workflow

01

Export the source file from Photoshop.

02

Inspect the file locally with the tool.

03

Use Advanced Options only if you need a privacy-focused variant.

04

Download the verified cleaned copy and archive the original export.

How to Verify the Cleaned File

  • Check Removed for supported metadata targets.
  • Check Preserved for ICC and camera metadata when separable.
  • Keep the original export if you need the embedded provenance record.

Common Misunderstandings

  • This tool does not make Photoshop edits invisible.
  • A clean verification table does not promise platform treatment.
  • A missing metadata hit does not prove the image was never AI-assisted.

FAQ

Yes. Adobe documents that Content Credentials can be attached directly to a file, stored in the cloud, or omitted on export depending on the workflow.
