fileForensics is a trust check for every file your app or agent acts on. Extraction tells you what a document says; fileForensics tells you whether to believe it. It looks for signs of editing, AI-generated content, tampering and details that don’t add up, then returns findings with the evidence: what, where and why. No black-box score. All delivered in one call and works via API, MCP (Claude, Cursor, Codex), the developer portal and the fileAI platform. Check the file before you trust the data.

Could you build this?
Partial The UI and report generation are straightforward, but reliably detecting AI-generated content and tampering requires forensic and ML detection models. Those are hard to get accurate, and wrapping third-party detectors yields weak evidence.
What it would actually take: The pipeline would be file parsing (PDF, image, and office formats), metadata and incremental-save forensics, error-level and noise analysis for images, and ML classifiers for synthetic content. The hard part is calibrated, explainable accuracy with low false positives, which needs computer vision and digital forensics researchers and a labeled dataset of tampered and synthetic documents.
