What is Checkobot?
Checkobot (Checko) is an AI image detection tool that analyzes uploaded images to determine whether they were generated or edited with AI. It combines whole-image analysis with a dedicated face-forensics model to detect face swaps and synthetic faces, serving fact-checkers, journalists, trust and safety teams, and everyday users, with API and batch API access for platforms.
Checkobot pricing
Pricing model: Freemium
Free checks available; paid plans exist (with private image history) but prices are not shown on the page
Checkobot pros
- Dual detection: whole-image analysis plus specialized face analysis for face swaps and synthetic faces
- Explains verdicts in plain words, showing which detector fired and why, rather than a mystery score
- Privacy-focused: free checks processed in memory and discarded; history stores only file hashes and verdicts
- API and Batch API for KYC, content moderation, marketplaces, and trust & safety workflows
Checkobot cons
- Never labels a photo as definitively 'real' — only 'No AI detected', acknowledging misses
- Screenshots degrade accuracy since analysis relies on original image detail
- Face analysis only runs when a clear, large face is present
Frequently asked questions about Checkobot
Does Checko store my uploaded photos?
On free checks, images are processed in memory and never stored. Paid plans keep images in your private history, which can be turned off.
What image formats are supported?
JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, BMP and TIFF, up to 20 MB.
Can Checko prove a photo is real?
No. Checko only reports 'AI' or 'No AI detected' and never calls a photo 'real', acknowledging it can miss things.
Can it be used by businesses?
Yes, via an API and Batch API for screening uploads, e.g. KYC onboarding selfies and content moderation.
