ABOUT THIS TOOL
What does AI tag Remover do?
AI tag Remover is an image metadata cleaner for JPEG, PNG and WebP. It deletes supported EXIF, XMP, IPTC and C2PA/JUMBF metadata containers directly from the file bytes, then checks the output and gives you a cleaned image to download.
These containers can hold AI-generation details, editing history, captions, camera information and location. The tool removes the supported containers whether or not their contents are AI-related. It keeps the encoded image data and supported color profiles.

THREE SIMPLE STEPS
How to remove AI tags
from an image
Use the free image cleaner above to remove supported hidden metadata before you share or archive an image. No installation is needed; JavaScript must be enabled in your browser.
Open the image metadata cleaner- 01
Choose your images
Drop a JPEG, PNG or WebP into the tool. Choose one image or a whole batch.
- 02
Remove supported metadata
Supported metadata is removed directly from the file bytes. Your image is not re-compressed.
- 03
Download your cleaned images
Review what was removed, preview the result and save a clean copy. Keep your original, too.
FILE SUPPORT
Supported image formats and metadata
The cleaner keeps the original file format. It does not convert your image or recompress its image data.
| Image format | Supported metadata removed | Image data preserved |
|---|---|---|
| JPG / JPEG | EXIF, standard and extended XMP, Photoshop/IPTC, JUMBF containers used by C2PA, and comments. | Compressed image scans, resolution, ICC color profiles and Adobe color-transform data. |
| PNG | EXIF, XMP and IPTC held in supported text chunks, other text metadata, and C2PA/JUMBF containers. | Image data, transparency, palettes, color information and supported APNG animation data. |
| WebP | EXIF, XMP, IPTC and C2PA chunks, including supported metadata inside animation frames. | Encoded image data, transparency, ICC profiles, animation frames and timing. |
Not supported: HEIC, AVIF, TIFF, GIF, video and multi-picture JPEG/MPO. Files with invalid container structure are rejected. Unknown private chunks and external provenance records may remain.
How does byte-level metadata removal work?
The cleaner reads each file’s structure and removes complete metadata segments or chunks. It does not redraw the image on a canvas or run it through an image encoder.
- JPEG: removes APP1, APP13, JUMBF APP11 segments and COM comments, including metadata between progressive scans.
- PNG: removes eXIf, iTXt, tEXt, zTXt and caBX chunks after checking chunk boundaries and checksums.
- WebP: removes supported EXIF, XMP, IPTC and C2PA chunks, updates container lengths and clears the EXIF/XMP flags.
Every output is parsed again to check that supported metadata containers are gone, and your browser must be able to display it before a download is offered. This check does not detect whether an image was generated by AI.
File-format references: JPEG specification, PNG specification, WebP specification and C2PA specification.
UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE
AI metadata, platform labels
and watermarks
An AI tag remover or AI metadata remover works on information stored in a file. An AI label displayed by a social platform and a watermark embedded in the image are different things.
- Embedded metadata
- Supported EXIF, XMP, IPTC and C2PA containers can be removed from your downloaded image.
- Platform AI labels
- Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and other platforms decide which labels to show. Cleaning metadata does not guarantee a label-free post or change an existing post.
- Visible or invisible watermarks
- Watermarks in the pixels are not removed. A clean metadata report is not proof that an image has no AI watermark.
PRIVACY COMES BUILT IN
Private image processing
in your browser
No server uploads. No account for the cleaner. No copy of your image stored online. The work happens locally, and you choose which cleaned files to save.
Your original stays untouched. Clear the results or close the page to release the working copies from this session.

AI tag removal:
questions and answers
What the tool removes, what it preserves, and what to expect from your cleaned copy.
What is an AI tag remover?
An AI tag remover clears supported metadata that can describe how an image was created or edited. This tool removes EXIF, XMP, IPTC and embedded C2PA/JUMBF containers from JPEG, PNG and WebP files. It also removes supported comments and text metadata, which can contain prompts and generator settings.
Will my image lose quality?
The cleaner copies the compressed image data without re-encoding it. Resolution, compression and supported color profiles are preserved. Removing EXIF can remove orientation instructions, so some photos may display rotated or mirrored. If an orientation tag is detected, the result includes a notice. Always check your downloaded copy.
Does this remove the AI label on Instagram, Facebook or TikTok?
It removes supported metadata inside the image file. A social platform can also use your disclosure, its own tools, visual detection or other signals to decide whether to display an AI label. A label-free post is not guaranteed, and this tool cannot change an existing post.
Can it remove invisible or visible watermarks?
No. This is a metadata remover. A visible watermark or an invisible watermark embedded in pixels, such as SynthID, is part of the image content and is not removed. An empty metadata report does not prove that an image has no watermark or was not made with AI.
Which image formats can I use?
Use JPG/JPEG, PNG or WebP images up to 50 MB and 100 megapixels each. You can add up to 10 images and 200 MB per batch. Supported PNG and WebP animation data is retained. HEIC, AVIF, TIFF, GIF, video and multi-picture JPEG/MPO files are not supported.
Are my images uploaded or stored?
No. Your selected images are processed in your browser, on your device. The tool does not send your images to a server or keep an online copy. The original file is untouched. Closing or reloading the page clears your session; files you download remain on your device.
Does it remove every piece of metadata?
It removes the supported EXIF, XMP, IPTC, C2PA/JUMBF, comment and text containers described here. It preserves color profiles and data needed to display the image. Unknown private chunks, external provenance records and metadata encoded in the pixels may remain. The report verifies supported containers, not every possible AI signal.
