Understand the Analysis. Make Informed Decisions.

You've received a photo with a Lumethic verification link. This page explains how to read the verification report and what our forensic analysis provides: a graded result with the checks behind it, showing whether the image is consistent with a genuine camera RAW file. We do not store RAW files; they are processed once for analysis.

As AI-generated fakes spread, trust is scarce. A Lumethic report gives you a categorical result, the checks behind it, and a plain statement of what it does not cover, so you can decide with the evidence in front of you.

What a Lumethic Verification Report Provides

When you receive a verified photo, you get more than just an image. You get transparent forensic evidence to inform your decisions.

A Clear, Actionable Report

No technical jargon. The report leads with the graded result, then lists each check by what it compares and whether it passed, so you can see what was established.

A Result With Stated Limits

Whether you're publishing a story, using an image in court, or buying a print, you get a categorical result and a statement of what it does not cover, not a number to guess at.

Evidence, Not a Score

Our checks compare the JPEG with the original camera RAW file and report each comparison as pass, fail or abstained, with the value behind it. A pass means the export is consistent with its RAW within stated thresholds; it is not cryptographic proof, and it does not say whether the scene was real.
