AI Metadata Cleaner: Remove AI Metadata from Images
Free AI metadata cleaner and remover for PNG, JPEG, and WebP, plus MP4/MOV video in the same tool. Strip C2PA, EXIF, and XMP locally before you post.
What people mean by “AI metadata”
An AI metadata cleaner (or AI metadata remover) targets machine-readable tags that hint an image was generated or edited with generative tools. The common buckets are C2PA Content Credentials, XMP records from editors, and EXIF software or description fields.
Social apps may read those fields and show labels such as AI Info, Made with AI, or a Content Credentials badge. Cleaning the file before upload is the step most creators skip.
What an AI metadata cleaner should remove
A useful AI metadata stripper targets removable provenance and privacy fields without changing how the picture looks:
- C2PA / Content Credentials manifests
- XMP packets tied to generative or editor workflows
- EXIF fields such as software strings and GPS when present
