The PhotoRadar Anti-AI Converter processes images locally in your browser. Choose a preset, inspect the output and adjust individual controls if needed. This guide covers image mode, from selecting a source file to checking the downloaded JPEG.
The converter changes texture, color, optics, compression and optional metadata. It does not fix incorrect objects or make a generated image authentic photography. For help deciding what to change visually, start with how to make AI images look more natural.
1. Choose one source image
Open image mode and select a JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC or HEIF file. HEIC and HEIF inputs are converted before processing. Keep the original and use it for each new run so your comparisons start from the same image.
Test one file before a batch. Very large images can be downscaled to fit the browser's processing budget, which depends on the device. Check any downscale notice and the final dimensions if you need a particular resolution. A mobile browser may have less memory available than a desktop browser.
2. Select a processing preset
Balanced is the default. The presets set both strength and a group of layer options. Their names describe processing configurations; they do not certify a particular detector result.
| Preset | Strength | How to use it |
|---|---|---|
| Subtle | 0.15 | A gentle first comparison when preserving appearance matters most. |
| Balanced | 0.35 | The default starting point for comparing texture and detail. |
| Strong | 0.70 | A stronger treatment. Inspect flat areas and fine edges before choosing it. |
| Max (Pro) | 1.00 | Includes the experimental SynthID disruption option. It does not guarantee removal or bypass. |
Pick a preset first, then adjust individual layers. Selecting another preset reapplies its layer settings, including optional camera metadata. Review those switches again before running. Use Reset to recommended when you want to return to Balanced.
3. Separate texture, style and metadata
The converter has 15 documented processing layers. Open Settings to find the controls, and expand Advanced layers for the individual layer switches. Start with a preset, then change the control related to the problem you see:
- Film Grain and noise layers: inspect sky, walls and other smooth areas. If speckles distract from the image, compare a gentler run.
- Quick Filter: leave it switched off while evaluating the base treatment. Add a color style only if it suits the picture.
- Lens Vignette and Chromatic Aberration: check dark corners and colored edges. Disable either effect if it competes with the subject.
- Micro Resampling: applies a small rotation and zoom. Compare the framing of tightly cropped subjects.
- Fake EXIF Data: adds synthetic camera-style metadata. Turn it off if you do not want added camera or location fields.
Metadata does not change the visible scene. If you enable generated EXIF, inspect the export in the EXIF Viewer and do not treat its camera model, timestamp or GPS as a record of an actual capture.
4. Run once and review the downloaded JPEG
Select Convert & Protect, wait for processing to finish and use Download image. Image mode exports JPEG. Check the result at 100% zoom and at the size where it will be displayed. For batches, you can download individual files or use the ZIP download.
Confirm the dimensions as well as the appearance. Dimension adjustment and JPEG processing can trim a few pixels; Micro Resampling can change the visible framing. Large-source downscaling can change resolution further. A source with transparency should also be checked against the intended background because JPEG does not preserve an alpha channel.
If the output looks worse, rerun the original with a lower strength or a relevant effect disabled. Avoid using the converted JPEG as the input to successive experiments. Use Copy settings to keep a record alongside each exported version.
5. Use detector comparisons with clear limits
The result includes a Re-check in the AI Detector link. Compare the source and output in the same detector, and keep a note of the files and settings. A different score is one observation about those files, not proof of a change in origin or guaranteed behavior in another detector.
A low score does not certify authenticity, and a high score does not by itself establish that a real photo was generated. Humanization does not guarantee a platform label will disappear, an upload will be accepted or a post will get more reach. Keep any appropriate AI disclosure with your content.
Free use, batches and browser processing
Check the allowance shown in the tool before running several comparisons. Image conversion happens locally; account and usage checks still require a connection. A failed or cancelled conversion does not consume a successful run. Paid plans unlock additional controls and larger batches; see the current plan details for availability.
Keep the tab open during processing. If a large batch cannot finish on your device, try one image first and reduce the input dimensions if appropriate. Keep your full-resolution originals separately. For video files, use the separate video workflow guide.
