What is OpenAI Verify?

OpenAI Verify is a public verification tool that lets anyone check whether an uploaded image was generated by an OpenAI product such as ChatGPT, the OpenAI API, Sora, or Codex. It works by reading provenance signals embedded in the image — including C2PA Content Credentials and SynthID watermarks — that show where the content came from. Released as part of OpenAI's broader content provenance push, alongside their seat on the C2PA Steering Committee.

Free for anyone to use.

FAQs

Common questions about OpenAI Verify

What is OpenAI Verify?
A free public tool from OpenAI that checks whether an uploaded image was generated by OpenAI products, by reading C2PA Content Credentials and SynthID watermark signals embedded in the file.
Does removing metadata defeat it?
Provenance is only as strong as the chain of custody — if metadata is stripped or platforms don't preserve it, verification may fail. SynthID provides an additional in-pixel signal that's harder to remove.
