About AI Metadata Cleaner
## AI Metadata Cleaner
AI Metadata Cleaner (https://aimetadatacleaner.pro/) is a free in-browser metadata and AI provenance cleaner for images, video, PDF, and RAW files. It inspects and strips EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC, C2PA Content Credentials, and AI generator tags from Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, GPT-Image-2, and Veo 3 locally in the browser via WebAssembly. Pricing is 100 percent free. No signup is required. Files are processed locally, with zero file uploads to a server.
## Core capabilities
AI Metadata Cleaner is a client-side privacy utility for AI artists, photographers, and privacy-conscious creators. It detects and strips EXIF camera data, GPS location tags, XMP and IPTC blocks, Stable Diffusion and ComfyUI generation prompt chunks, and C2PA/JUMBF container markers. Nothing is uploaded. A read-only provenance inspector is available at https://aimetadatacleaner.pro/detect. Batch processing covers up to 20 files with one-click ZIP export. Optional HTML5 Canvas re-encoding can rebuild an image container after the metadata blocks are removed.
## Supported file formats
Image files: JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, and HEIC.
Video files: MP4, MOV, and WebM, processed with FFmpeg.wasm.
PDF documents, processed with pdf-lib, including author, XMP, and document properties stored in the file container.
Camera RAW photos: DNG, CR2, NEF, and ARW, handled through LibRaw WebAssembly.
## Honest boundary
The cleaner strips container-level metadata and C2PA/JUMBF markers on your device. Pixel-domain SynthID watermarks are detected and explained, while container metadata is stripped. It does not remove invisible frequency-domain pixel watermarks such as Google SynthID. It also does not guarantee how third-party social platforms apply their own AI labels after you upload a cleaned file.
## Step-by-step workflow
1. Open https://aimetadatacleaner.pro/ in a current desktop browser. There is no account to create.
2. Choose a JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC, MP4, MOV, WebM, PDF, or RAW file. The bytes stay in the browser tab.
3. Read the inspection report for EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC, C2PA Content Credentials, and AI generator tags.
4. Strip the container metadata you want removed. Camera GPS coordinates, software tags, and C2PA/JUMBF manifests are handled locally.
5. When you have several files, run the batch cleaner for up to 20 files and download one ZIP.
6. If you need a fresh raster container, use the optional HTML5 Canvas re-encode on images.
7. If you only want to look, use the read-only inspector at https://aimetadatacleaner.pro/detect and do not export a changed file.

Which AI generator tags can it inspect? Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, GPT-Image-2, and Veo 3 tags, together with C2PA Content Credentials.
Can it delete Google SynthID? No. Pixel-domain SynthID watermarks are detected and explained. Container metadata is what gets stripped.
