Client-side metadata risk scan

Image metadata risk scanner

Check photos and screenshots for hidden privacy signals such as GPS location, camera details, timestamps, software tags, author fields, comments, and embedded metadata before sharing them.

What risk means

PixBatch groups common metadata findings into low, medium, and high risk levels. GPS tags, author/comment fields, and sensitive descriptive metadata are treated more seriously.

The scan happens locally in your browser. Results are for quick privacy review, not formal forensic analysis.

Privacy toolkit

Working with sensitive screenshots or photos?

Use PixBatch Privacy Tools to redact visible details, remove hidden metadata, and create hashes for evidence notes — all locally in your browser with no uploads.

Select images to scan

Upload one or more photos/screenshots. PixBatch reads metadata locally and shows a privacy risk summary.

Your images are not uploaded. Metadata parsing, scoring, and CSV export run inside your browser.

GPS/location = high risk
Camera/date tags = medium risk
Software tags = low risk
Timestamps can reveal context

Risk results

Review findings before sharing. Remove metadata or redact visible details if needed.

No metadata scan yet

Select images on the left to see GPS, device, timestamp, software, and descriptive metadata findings.

Scan first

Use the scanner to understand what hidden metadata exists before deciding whether to clean or share a file.

Clean next

If GPS, device, timestamp, author, or comment metadata appears, use the EXIF remover to create a cleaned copy.

Review visible data

Metadata cleanup does not hide visible text. Use screenshot redaction for emails, names, IPs, tickets, and account numbers.
