Toren
Toren is a web detector for AI-generated, deepfaked, or edited images, video, and text.
What Toren is
Toren is a web detector for AI-generated, deepfaked, or edited images, video, and text. Users can provide a direct media URL, upload a file, or paste text. Results show a verdict, confidence score, and short explanation. Image and video analysis examines compression fingerprints, frame consistency, and metadata, while text checks style and structure patterns. Video analysis samples multiple moments in a clip; video URL scanning is disabled, so videos must be uploaded. A new account supplies 25 free tokens. Typical usage is 1 token for text, 2 for images, and 4 for video. Logged-in users can revisit results for up to 5 days. Toren says uploaded originals are deleted after analysis, while results remain temporarily. It warns that estimates can be wrong, especially with low-quality or heavily edited files.
