DetectFake helps people examine suspicious images and video frames before sharing them. It combines local-first visual checks for texture, noise, compression, edges and frame consistency with a clear confidence score and signal report. It also includes a free verification checklist and guidance on provenance, context and detector limits. Results are screening evidence, not proof.

Could you build this?
Partial The client-side UI and heuristic checks (noise/edge filters in WebAssembly/Canvas) can be vibe-coded, but real deepfake/AI visual forensic detection models requires specialized ML model training, artifact analysis, and continuous calibration against modern generative diffusion/GAN models.
What it would actually take: A functioning deepfake forensics engine requires fine-tuning specialized neural networks (e.g., frequency-domain CNNs, ViTs) on massive balanced datasets of real vs. state-of-the-art synthetic media (Midjourney v6, SDXL, Sora, Flux). The browser client runs lightweight quantized ONNX models via WebGPU alongside FFT/wavelet frequency analysis algorithms, while server fallback handles deep video frame-by-frame temporal consistency.
