What is C2PA Metadata?

C2PA (Coalition for Content Authenticity and Integrity) is a cryptographically signed record embedded inside image files. It identifies who created the file, which AI tool generated it, and when. Tools like ChatGPT image generation, Adobe Firefly, and Microsoft Designer automatically embed C2PA into every image they produce.

Unlike EXIF data, C2PA uses a digital certificate chain — so it cannot be forged, only completely removed. MetaRemover is one of the few tools that can detect and strip C2PA manifests directly in your browser without uploading the file to any server.

What Happens After Removing C2PA?

  • Image pixels are completely unchanged — no quality loss
  • The C2PA manifest is fully stripped — no provenance data remains
  • File will no longer appear as AI-generated in C2PA-aware tools
  • The provenance chain is broken — the image cannot be verified as authentic
  • EXIF and GPS data are also removed in the same operation
