AI is training on your photos without asking.

VeriMedia embeds the ai:opt-out=true signal directly into your images and PDFs, locally in your browser. The major AI crawlers read this tag and exclude your work from training datasets.

Your file is ready instantly. Same visual quality, zero private data, crawler opt-out embedded.

Built to block AI scrapers

Every feature protects your creative work

AI Training Opt-Out
Embeds the standardised ai:opt-out=true tag in XMP metadata. GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and Common Crawl publicly commit to honouring this signal.

Tell AI crawlers your work is off-limits for training data.

GPS & Device Scrubbing
Removes GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers, and device fingerprints before you share, so no one can trace the photo back to your location or hardware.

Strip hidden location and device tracking data.

Forensic PDF Scrubbing
Physically overwrites hidden document metadata streams so sensitive author info is permanently unrecoverable. deeper than standard PDF editors.

Deep-clean private author data from PDF binary streams.

Frequently Asked Questions

VeriMedia embeds a standard ai:opt-out=true tag directly into your image file's XMP metadata. This signals to major AI web crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and Common Crawl) that your work is restricted from AI model training datasets.

Yes, for crawlers that respect it. Major AI companies including OpenAI (GPTBot), Anthropic (ClaudeBot), and Common Crawl publicly commit to honouring ai:opt-out signals in image metadata. It is the metadata equivalent of robots.txt for AI training.

After purchasing, check your email for the Paddle receipt. Your license key is the Transaction ID found in the receipt (it usually starts with txn_). Copy and paste it into the Activation menu. it activates automatically on first use.

Every raw JPEG from a smartphone or DSLR contains hidden GPS coordinates accurate to within a few metres, including your home address or private location. These tags are visible to anyone who downloads the image. VeriMedia removes them entirely before the file leaves your device.

With Creator Pro, you embed a WebStatement XMP tag pointing to your portfolio or licensing page. Google Images reads this tag and displays a "Licensable" badge next to your photo in search results, directly attributing the image to you.

Yes. Photos from iOS and Android are standard JPEG or HEIC files. VeriMedia processes both in-browser. HEIC files (iPhone default) are converted and shielded automatically.

Plus ($9.99) unlocks batch shielding up to 100 files, 25 MB file limit, and creator profile metadata. Pro ($19.99) adds unlimited batches, 100 MB files, the Google Licensable Badge, and whitelabel mode.

How to Block AI Web Crawlers from Using Your Images

VeriMedia is a browser-based AI training opt-out tool built for photographers, illustrators, and digital creators who need to protect their work from being scraped into AI model training datasets. Every image you share online is potentially accessible to AI web crawlers. including GPTBot (OpenAI), ClaudeBot (Anthropic), and Common Crawl. unless it contains a machine-readable opt-out signal.

VeriMedia embeds the standardised ai:opt-out=true tag directly into your image file's XMP metadata segment. This is processed entirely inside your browser using the Web Cryptography API and in-memory file buffers. No bytes are transmitted to any server.

What the ai:opt-out Tag Does

The ai:opt-out=true metadata signal is the image equivalent of a robots.txt disallow directive. Major AI companies publicly commit to excluding content marked with this signal from their training pipelines. VeriMedia writes the tag in binary XMP format for maximum crawler compatibility. the same format used by professional media licensing agencies.

GPS Location and Device Fingerprint Removal

In addition to AI opt-out signals, VeriMedia functions as an EXIF data remover and GPS metadata stripper. Every raw JPEG from a smartphone or camera contains hidden GPS coordinates accurate to within metres, camera make and model, lens serial number, and shooting date. VeriMedia removes these entirely before the file leaves your device.

Enabling the Google Images Licensable Badge

Creator Pro users can embed IPTC copyright fields and a WebStatement XMP tag pointing to their portfolio or licensing page. Google Images reads this tag and displays a "Licensable" badge next to the image in search results, linking searchers directly to the creator's licensing terms.

Forensic PDF Metadata Scrubbing

Standard PDF property editors typically remove only the visible properties panel fields, leaving raw metadata streams intact. VeriMedia's PDF Forensic Cleaner physically overwrites the internal XMP and Info streams. including Author, Creator, Producer, CreationDate, and ModDate fields. making recovery impossible.

Supported File Formats

  • JPEG / JPG. full EXIF, IPTC, and XMP scrubbing + AI opt-out injection
  • PNG. tEXt and zTXt chunk removal + XMP opt-out injection
  • WebP. extended XMP metadata removal
