AI tag remover, including your prompt and seed
AI generators do not just mark a file as AI-made. Many write the prompt text, the seed, the model name and the full sampler settings into the image. Anyone who opens that file in a text editor can read how you made it.
This finds those tags, shows you their actual contents, and removes them without re-encoding your picture.
- Prompts & seeds
- Shows real values
- Keeps your pixels

What is leaking
Which generator writes which tag
There is no single standard, which is why a tool that only checks one container misses most of this. Each generator picked a different place to write.
| Generator | Where it writes | What is exposed |
|---|---|---|
| Midjourney | XMP | Full prompt text, seed, version and aspect flags |
| Stable Diffusion | PNG tEXt | Prompt, negative prompt, sampler, CFG, seed, model hash |
| ComfyUI | PNG tEXt | The entire node graph as JSON, your whole workflow |
| ChatGPT / DALL·E | C2PA | Signed OpenAI credentials declaring AI origin |
| Adobe Firefly | C2PA + IPTC | Credentials plus trainedAlgorithmicMedia |
| Leonardo AI | XMP | Generation signatures |
| Ideogram | EXIF | Generator markers in the Software field |
| Photoshop AI Fill | C2PA + EXIF | Partial-edit credentials on real photographs |
Your prompt is your method
For anyone selling AI art or running a paid workflow, the prompt and seed are the product. A Stable Diffusion PNG published untouched hands both to anyone who downloads it, and makes your output exactly reproducible.

Read the tags before you remove them
Most tools in this category report a yes/no verdict. We audited the market leader and found its checker only recognised C2PA: a file with a Software field reading “Adobe Photoshop 25.0 (Generative Fill)” and full GPS coordinates was reported as “Metadata percentage 0%, your image is clean for upload”.
This tool lists the actual field names and values it parsed. If it says nothing was found, that is because the parser ran and found nothing, not because it never looked.
- EXIF: camera fields plus the
Softwarestring that names AI editors. - XMP: prompts, seeds, creator tools and IPTC source type.
- C2PA: signed provenance manifests in JUMBF or
caBX. - PNG text: tEXt, zTXt and iTXt chunks holding full workflows.
- IPTC: publishing and AI attribution fields.
Choosing
Remove the AI tags, keep your camera data
If you are a photographer who used an AI-assisted edit, you probably want the generator markers gone and your shutter speed, lens and copyright kept. That is what AI markers only does: it removes C2PA, XMP and PNG text outright, and removes EXIF only when the EXIF itself carries a generator fingerprint.
Be aware of the trade-off: GPS lives in EXIF, so AI-markers-only keeps your location data. If you want both the AI tags and the location gone, use Everything.
| Mode | Removes | Keeps |
|---|---|---|
| Everything | C2PA, XMP, PNG text, all EXIF, GPS, IPTC | Colour profile (optional) |
| AI markers only | C2PA, XMP, PNG text, AI-fingerprinted EXIF | Camera settings, copyright, and GPS |
Questions
Frequently asked questions
›What is an AI tag remover?
A tool that strips the metadata AI generators write into image files, prompt text, seeds, model names, sampler settings and signed C2PA provenance. These are separate from ordinary EXIF, which is why generic EXIF removers leave most of them behind.
›Can people really read my Midjourney prompt from the file?
Yes. Midjourney writes prompt text and seed into the XMP block, and Stable Diffusion writes the full generation parameters into PNG text chunks as plain readable text. Opening the file in a text editor is enough to see them.
›Does removing AI tags change the image?
No. The tags live in container blocks beside the compressed picture, so removing them is a copy-and-skip operation. The pixel data is byte-for-byte identical afterwards, and we verify that on every run.
›Will this make my AI image undetectable?
No, and that is worth being direct about. It removes file-level tags. It cannot remove invisible pixel watermarks such as SynthID, and it cannot defeat a visual classifier that judges the image itself. Any tool claiming otherwise is overselling.
›Which is better, AI-only mode or removing everything?
AI-only if you are a photographer who needs camera settings and copyright preserved. Everything if privacy is the goal, since AI-only keeps the EXIF block and therefore keeps GPS.
