Google's watermark detector is now accessible to everyone. The company highlights a rate of one million daily checks and the integration of the tool into Search, the Gemini app, and Chrome, while reminding users that SynthID only recognizes its own markings.
An Integrated Tool and Claimed Daily Use
Google reports one million verification requests per day. SynthID detection is available in Google Search, the Gemini app, and Chrome. The company states that it has processed over 180 billion watermarked images and videos to date. However, this tool is not universal and only flags content marked by SynthID.
Public Access, Relevant Models, and Supported Formats
The SynthID detector is open to the public. Anyone can check if an image, video, or audio file was generated by Google's AI or its partners. The tool identifies invisible watermarks embedded in content from models such as Gemini, Veo, or Lyria. Supported file formats include JPG, PNG, MP4, and MP3.
Adoptions, Reservations, and Upcoming Arrivals
OpenAI, Nvidia, and Kakao use SynthID for media content, while for text, OpenAI has developed its own system. Apple is expected to join the initiative soon, according to Google. More generally, other detection tools primarily examine watermarks issued by their respective providers. Google also indicated that 180 billion images and videos currently contain SynthID watermarks.
