What makes an online AI metadata remover trustworthy
Not every tool that calls itself a browser-based metadata remover actually earns the label. Here are the five criteria that matter and how StripShot stacks up.
StripShot meets all five.
What "online" actually means and what to watch for
Some tools claim to be online but upload your file to a server. Signs your file is being uploaded: a progress bar that involves network requests, a loading spinner while network activity fires, a URL change after processing.
True browser-side tools use the FileReader or arrayBuffer API. No network requests during the strip. The processing happens entirely inside your browser tab using local memory.
Confirm StripShot is local
Go offline in your browser settings, then drop an image into StripShot. It still strips. That's the proof: no network request is made during processing because none is needed.
What StripShot removes online, at binary level
Binary-level means the metadata bytes are surgically removed from the file. The pixel data is never re-encoded. Your image comes out bit-for-bit identical to the original except the metadata segments are gone.

Frequently asked questions
Is StripShot really free online?
Yes. 3 strips per day with no account required. Resets at midnight. Pro is $9/month for unlimited, batch, and Ghost Mode.
Do I need to create an account?
No. Drop an image, strip, download. No email, no signup, no account. You get 3 free strips per day immediately.
Is it safe to use an online metadata remover?
Only if the tool processes files in your browser. StripShot does. Your file never leaves your device. Confirm by going offline — StripShot still works because no network request is made during processing.
Does the online tool remove C2PA?
Yes. C2PA is StripShot's primary target. It specifically removes JPEG APP11 segments and PNG caBX/caMs/caSt chunks at binary level — the segments that trigger Instagram's "Made with AI" label.
What file formats work online?
JPEG, PNG, and WebP. All processed in the browser at binary level with zero quality loss.
