Field notes
The site frames metadata as information that can survive cropping or renaming, including camera make, model, lens, and possibly serial-related fields. It also calls out AI-generated images, where PNG or JPEG chunks may contain prompts, seeds, and workflow text. The homepage points to a map-based GPS inspection flow and says the tool handles iPhone HEIC files as well as JPEG, PNG, and WebP.
