One question, two tools. First: can you mark an image so no model strips the
watermark without wrecking the asset? Second: given a suspect file, can you prove it
was scaled, edited, or scrubbed? We put six frontier editors to the test.

The watermarked asset vs. the AI removal result. Pick a version on the
left, an attack model on the right.
Drag the slider. The watermark is baked into the box โ the AI eraser can only strip it by rebuilding the asset.

In Search of an Unbreakable Watermark
Four versions of a protected-preview watermark, each attacked with six image-editing
models. See exactly what survives, and what the forensic verdict was.

Detector โ Image Forensics
Drop in an original and a copy. Find out if it's a clean resize, an edited composite,
or a watermark-scrubbed manipulation โ with the evidence.

In Search of an Unbreakable Watermark
Each version is rendered on the same box. We then ask image-editing models to
remove the watermark, and run the result through the Detector. A verdict of
manipulated means the eraser had to damage the asset โ the watermark won.
Detector โ Image Forensics
Click an area to select it, then paste (โ/Ctrl-V) an image into it โ or use
browse / drag-and-drop. Beyond clean-resize vs manipulated, it harvests forgery
evidence: the registry serial, our invisible watermark, and the suspect's own C2PA /
AI-tool traces.
