How It Works
A rigorous 6-stage pipeline built for complete transparency and automated zero-retention privacy.
Upload
Select or drop your file. Files transfer directly to private temporary object storage using encrypted presigned links.
Analyze
Our engine inspects EXIF, GPS, IPTC, XMP, author tags, and container attributes across supported formats.
Clean
Supported metadata is stripped safely using lossless stream copy and native tools without re-compressing or degrading quality.
Verify
A secondary analysis engine re-scans the output file to confirm target metadata has been eradicated and structure remains valid.
Download
Download your cleaned file using an expiring cryptographic link with zero user account or tracking required.
Delete Temporary Data
Original uploads, intermediate files, and memory workspaces are permanently deleted immediately upon job completion.
What Metadata is Hiding in Your Files?
Modern cameras, smartphones, and software automatically embed sensitive tracking fingerprints inside ordinary files.
Precise Geolocation (GPS)
Embedded latitude, longitude, altitude, and timestamps can reveal your home address, daily routines, or exact private locations.
Latitude, Longitude, Altitude, Compass Heading, GPS Time
Hardware Serial Numbers & Make
Unique camera serial numbers, lens IDs, and firmware revisions link multiple files from different accounts to the same physical device.
Camera Serial, Internal Serial Number, Lens Serial, MakerNotes
Author & Corporate Identity
Documents frequently embed internal system usernames, network computer names, company names, manager names, and revision history.
Creator, Author, Last Modified By, Company, Manager, Revision Count
AI Generation Prompts & Toolchains
Generative tools embed full generation prompts, negative prompts, seed numbers, sampler settings, and model checkpoint hashes in PNG tEXt/iTXt chunks.
AI Prompts, Workflow Parameters, Checkpoint Hashes, Model Tags
Software & Editing Footprints
Editing programs embed their version, operating system, exact export time, and history logs revealing your software stack and timeline.
Editing Software, Operating System, Export Timestamp, XMP History
Audio Fingerprints & Tags
Voice memos and recordings contain encoder signatures, device identifiers, embedded comments, and recording timestamps.
ID3v1/ID3v2 tags, Recording Date, Encoder, Embedded Comments
Same Content. More Privacy.

Before You Post
Social networks and public platforms process your files. Prepare your files and remove hidden tracking metadata before you hit share.
Strip embedded GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers, and editing history from photos and reels before posting to public or private feeds.
Prepare a cleaner copy of community uploads, family photos, and marketplace listings to ensure device identifiers are never exposed.
YouTube
Strip container metadata, software tags, and recording location tags from MP4/MOV videos before publishing to YouTube.

How Data Flows Through Our System
Zero User Profiling
No account creation, no password databases, no OAuth logins, and no persistent file history. Every session uses cryptographically random, ephemeral job tokens.
Guaranteed File Deletion
Uploaded originals, intermediate files, and temporary processing workspaces are deleted immediately upon job completion. Output copies expire after download or automatic S3 TTL lifecycle.
Restricted Isolation
Worker processes execute in sandboxed environments with strict memory and runtime timeouts. Uploaded code or documents are treated as untrusted text and never executed or compiled.
