One habit that protects a lot of people.

Every photo quietly carries where it was taken, when, and on what device. Here’s who checks — and strips — before they share, and how MetaMarshal helps.

For people

Free, unlimited, and entirely on your device — the photo never leaves your browser.

📰

Journalists & their sources

Publish a photo without publishing where your source was standing. Strip GPS, device identifiers and the embedded thumbnail before a story goes out — and see exactly what was removed first.

Activists & at-risk people

A protest or field photo can carry the coordinates and exact time that place you there. Reveal what's embedded and remove the location before you share, entirely on your device.

Marketplace & classifieds sellers

Listing photos taken at home often carry your GPS position to within a few meters. Scrub them so buyers see the item — not a map pin on your front door.

💬

Dating & social sharing

Post pictures without quietly attaching where and when they were taken. One pass shows the hidden fields and strips the ones you don't want travelling with the image.

Photographers

Deliver client files clean: remove your camera's serial number and owner tag, keep orientation and colour, and export sRGB copies — without flipping portraits or wrecking quality.

Smaller files for web & email

Shrink a photo to a target quality as you clean it — lighter uploads, faster pages, and attachments that don't bounce. The before/after size is shown right in the export.

For teams & platforms

The same engine as a zero-retention API — process and forget, at scale.

🧩

Platforms & apps

Auto-scrub every user upload at ingest with the /scrub endpoint — zero-retention, 50+ formats — so your product never stores a user's location by accident. Files are processed in memory and forgotten.

🔎

Verification & research

Reveal full metadata plus C2PA Content Credentials and watermark signals to check an image's provenance — and whether AI was involved — before you trust, cite or publish it.

Inspect a photo

🏠

Real estate & field teams

Bulk-clean property, inspection and claims photos through the batch API before they hit a public listing or leave your systems — with a manifest of exactly what each file was carrying.
