Video verification for journalists
Verify viral footage before publishing. Don't amplify misinformation — investigate it.
The Problem
Newsrooms face an authenticity crisis
Viral videos spread faster than verification. AI-generated content is increasingly indistinguishable from real footage.
In the race to publish, journalists are forced to make rapid judgments about video authenticity with limited tools. Traditional methods — reverse image search, metadata inspection, source verification — are no longer sufficient against AI-generated and manipulated content.
A single false story amplified by a credible outlet can cause lasting reputational damage. Newsrooms need forensic-grade analysis that works fast enough for breaking news workflows.
The Solution
Forensic analysis for editorial workflows
Fast analysis
Upload or paste a URL and receive a comprehensive forensic report in under 60 seconds — fast enough for breaking news.
Evidence-based reports
Every verdict comes with per-module breakdowns, evidence timelines, and confidence levels. Show your editors the reasoning.
Evidence timeline
Scrub through the video and see exactly which segments triggered forensic findings. Pinpoint the suspicious frames.
Provenance verification
Check for C2PA content credentials and other origin signals that can verify where footage came from.
15 analysis dimensions
Don't rely on a single detection method. 15 independent modules examine metadata, compression, faces, audio, motion, and more.
URL support
Paste a YouTube, TikTok, or Twitter URL. ClipForensics downloads and analyzes the video without requiring manual download.
Workflow
How journalists use ClipForensics
1. Viral video lands in your inbox
A source sends a video claiming to show an incident. It's already circulating on social media. Your editor needs a decision: publish, investigate, or ignore.
2. Upload to ClipForensics
Paste the social media URL or upload the file. 15 forensic modules run in parallel. Results arrive in under a minute.
3. Review the forensic report
Check the verdict, confidence level, and evidence timeline. See which modules flagged concerns and which supported authenticity. Identify the specific segments of interest.
4. Combine with editorial judgment
ClipForensics is one input. Cross-reference with source verification, geolocation, reverse image search, and your editorial standards. Make an informed decision.
