Every AI image generator handles metadata differently — some embed a full cryptographically signed C2PA manifest, some write your prompt as plain text, and some embed your entire technical workflow. There's no single standard every tool follows, which is exactly why it's worth checking rather than assuming. Pick your tool below for the specifics.
Full signed C2PA manifest — claim generator, action history, ES256 signature.
No C2PA — your full prompt is written in plain text instead.
Depends on the interface — most write a plain-text "parameters" chunk.
Your entire node workflow, embedded as JSON — models, LoRAs, and all.
Full C2PA manifest from one of the standard's founding companies.
Why a mostly-real photo with one AI edit can still get flagged.
| Tool | C2PA signed? | What's exposed |
|---|---|---|
| DALL·E / ChatGPT | Yes | Claim generator, action history, signature |
| Midjourney | No | Full prompt, plain text |
| Stable Diffusion (WebUI) | No (usually) | Prompt, seed, model, sampler settings |
| ComfyUI | No (by default) | Entire node workflow as JSON |
| Adobe Firefly | Yes | Full manifest, ingredient tracking |
| Photoshop (Generative Fill) | Yes | AI-edit action log on an otherwise real photo |
Whatever the format, AiEraser's View mode decodes and shows exactly what's in your specific file — and Remove mode clears it before you share or publish.
