What Unsurface is

Unsurface analyzes images and video for AI-generated content, deepfakes, and alterations made with editing software. It can identify affected image regions and video frames, and indicate likely cameras, AI generators, or editing tools involved in falsifying media. Its forensic findings are presented as evidence analysts can inspect and interpret when visual authenticity matters to high-stakes decisions. The company says its method uses statistical relationships between pixels left by cameras, generators, and editing software. It describes the technology as building on more than a decade of peer-reviewed media-forensics research, including work associated with DARPA’s MediFor and SemaFor programs. Unsurface also says the approach has been validated in dozens of peer-reviewed publications and early versions of its core technology have been used in government systems and by news agencies. The paid service has pricing on request. The company says it is working with a limited number of founding partners and invites prospective users to request a demo.
