Understand the verdict
The inspector reports which Microsoft-specific fingerprints were found. A positive match means the image was likely generated by Microsoft Designer or Bing Image Creator.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if an image is from Bing Image Creator?

Drop the image into the AI Image Inspector on this page. It checks for C2PA Content Credentials signed by Microsoft and EXIF/XMP tags set to 'Microsoft Designer' or 'Bing Image Creator'.

Does Bing Image Creator add a watermark?

Yes. Images from Microsoft Designer and Bing Image Creator carry C2PA Content Credentials — a signed provenance manifest embedded in the file. The inspector reads and verifies these fingerprints.

Limitations

Structural detection, not pixel-levelThe inspector reads C2PA manifests, EXIF software tags, and XMP CreatorTool fields. It does not run a neural classifier on the pixels. A Microsoft / Bing image that has been re-encoded with all metadata stripped will be reported as 'No AI generation traces found.'
Screenshots defeat detectionTaking a screenshot of a Bing Image Creator image strips the C2PA manifest and metadata block during re-encoding. The screenshot will read as 'No AI generation traces found.'
PNG, JPEG, and WebP onlyThe C2PA chunk reader works on PNG iTXt/zTXt, JPEG APP11 JUMBF, and WebP 'EXIF' chunks. AVIF, HEIC, and TIFF are not decoded.

Platform notes

macOS: Preview.app and Quick Look do not surface C2PA Content Credentials. The inspector is the right tool for diagnosing Microsoft / Bing AI provenance from any source.
Windows: Windows Photos and File Explorer show EXIF but not C2PA. For full provenance, drop the file into the inspector.
Linux: `exiftool -api RequestAll=3 image.png` shows C2PA claim chains and XMP. The inspector is the right pick when you want a single report covering every Microsoft / Bing fingerprint.
Web: Runs entirely client-side. The image is read as a Uint8Array; all detectors run as pure JavaScript. No upload, no server roundtrip, no telemetry.
