Description

Posted a real photo and Instagram labelled it “AI info”? MetaClean removes the metadata platforms read: C2PA Content Credentials, the IPTC AI tag, GPS location, camera details and edit history, from photos and videos (JPG, PNG, MP4, MOV). It runs on your Mac or Windows PC, so nothing is ever uploaded, and it never re-encodes your files. Clean one file or a whole folder; every copy is verified before it's saved. Free for 3 days, then $5 once.
