PixGuard
What it is
PixGuard scans website images and gives each a copyright risk score from 0 to 100, with reasons for the score. Its checks cover image metadata, stock-agency watermarks, reference fingerprints, possible AI generation, and similarity. Pro and Business add AI vision review for ambiguous cases. An account scan follows links across up to 50 pages, subject to a plan limit on new images. Visitors can check a page without signing up, but that check covers only its three largest images. Uploaded JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF files can be up to 10 MB. Previously analyzed images can be rescanned without charge, and images PixGuard cannot analyze are not charged. A WordPress plugin adds scans to Media Library images and supports full-site scans; a Chrome extension scans from an image’s context menu or Alt+Shift+P and shows a score, severity, and signal breakdown. API access is a Business feature. Plans include a free option, Pro at $29 a month, Business at $79 a month, and a $300 one-time image pack. PixGuard says it does not permanently store uploaded images and stores image hashes for caching.
