The risks of synthetic videos
AI video generation went from creative tool to security threat in a year. Anyone can produce photorealistic videos of people, places, and events that never happened. For enterprises that creates real exposure:- Legal evidence - courts need verification that video evidence isn’t artificially manufactured or edited
- Insurance fraud - synthetic accident scenes and AI-generated footage threaten claim integrity
- Financial crime - deepfake executive videos enable sophisticated social engineering
- Disinformation - AI-generated news footage undermines public trust
- Regulatory compliance - industries face growing requirements to verify media authenticity
- Reputation protection - synthetic video targeting executives or brands can cause irreversible damage
Capabilities
Audio & visual track analysis
Independently analyzes both the audio and visual tracks, returning separate AI ratios and time-based detection data for each.
Time-based detection
Returns start positions and durations (in milliseconds) for each AI-detected segment, enabling frame-accurate analysis across the full timeline.
Overall AI ratio
Provides a single
overallAIRatio score representing the proportion of the video (union of audio and visual AI detections) that is AI-generated.Metadata extraction
Extracts embedded provenance metadata (C2PA standard) to identify the generating tool, issuing organization, and creation timestamp when available.
Broad format support
.mp4, .avi, .mov, .mkv, .webm, .flv, .wmv, .mpg, .m4v, .3gp, .mxf - up to 512 MB and 1 hour in duration.Async webhook delivery
Designed for large files: submit a video URL and receive results via webhook when processing completes, no polling required.
Use cases
- Legal & Forensics
- Insurance Fraud Prevention
- Media & Journalism
- Financial Services Security
- Enterprise Governance
- Identity Verification
Verify authenticity of video evidence in legal proceedings and investigations. Ensure that footage submitted to courts or regulatory bodies hasn’t been artificially generated or manipulated.
Pair with other detection APIs
AI Image Detection
Detect AI-generated images to complement video verification for complete media authenticity.
AI Text Detection
Detect AI-generated text content for complete document and media authenticity.
Plagiarism Detection
Verify that content hasn’t been copied from other sources alongside AI generation checks.
Frequently asked questions
Can it detect deepfakes?
Yes. The API detects AI-generated and deepfake video, analyzing the full timeline to flag synthetic faces, AI-cloned voices, and manipulated footage - useful for fraud prevention, forensics, and identity verification.Does it analyze audio and video separately?
Yes. It independently analyzes the audio and visual tracks, returning separate AI ratios and time-based detection data for each, plus a singleoverallAIRatio for the whole video.
Which video formats and sizes are supported?
.mp4, .avi, .mov, .mkv, .webm, .flv, .wmv, .mpg, .m4v, .3gp, and .mxf, up to 512 MB and 1 hour in duration.
Is video detection synchronous?
No. It is designed for large files: you submit a video URL and receive results via webhook when processing completes, with no polling required.Can it identify which tool generated a video?
When embedded provenance metadata is present, it extracts C2PA data to identify the generating tool, issuing organization, and creation timestamp.Next steps
