What is an AI image detector?
An AI image detector helps you determine whether an image was created by artificial intelligence or a human. By analyzing visual patterns, artifacts, and model-specific signatures commonly found in AI-generated images, it provides a percentage-based score that shows the likelihood of AI involvement and helps you assess authenticity quickly and make informed decisions with confidence.
How AI image detector works
It only takes a few simple steps to scan your image for authenticity.
Upload your image
Select the image you want to check and click "Upload".
Analyze with AI image detector
AI image detector scans your image for visual patterns and signals to determine image authenticity.
Get instant results
See whether the image is likely AI-generated or human-made, with a confidence score.

AI image detector FAQs
Does image quality affect the detection accuracy?
Yes. Higher-resolution images with less compression generally produce more accurate results, while heavily compressed, blurry, or low-resolution images may reduce detection confidence.
What types of images are supported and how long does it take to analyze an image?
The AI image detector supports common formats such as JPG, JPEG, PNG, and WebP, covering most images shared online.
AI image detector can analyze an image in just a few seconds.
Does the tool work on AI-generated images from Midjourney, DALL·E, and Stable Diffusion?
Yes. The detector is trained to recognize visual patterns commonly found in images generated by popular models like Midjourney, DALL·E, and Stable Diffusion.
How does the AI image detector identify AI-created patterns?
It analyzes visual cues such as texture inconsistencies, lighting artifacts, repetitive details, and structural patterns that are typical of AI-generated imagery.
Is QuillBot's AI image detector tool free to use?
Yes. QuillBot’s AI image detector is free to use, with no subscription or hidden fees necessary.
Can it detect edited or partially AI-generated images?
Yes. The tool can identify signs of partial AI generation or manipulation, including AI-enhanced sections within otherwise real images.
Can AI image detector detects deepfake images or face swaps?
Yes the tool can flag many deepfake-style artifacts and AI-based face swaps, though results may vary depending on image quality and editing complexity.
