Full Steps
Select your ChatGPT image
For a ChatGPT image, download the original first and upload a JPEG, PNG or WebP up to 15 MiB and 20 MP. To get started, try up to one image a day for free, subject to availability; an account balance allows batches of up to 20 images.
Process the uploaded file
The ChatGPT image is processed without manual settings, keeping its original dimensions. When the upload has finished, you can leave the tab and return in the same browser to follow progress; keep your original for a detailed comparison later.
Compare the ChatGPT result
Check the ChatGPT result at full size, paying attention to text, facial features and detailed textures. Download the file during the hour after processing finishes; if a quality warning is shown, read it and review the affected details before using the image.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does removing image metadata clear SynthID too?
SynthID sits in the image pixels, separate from the metadata attached to the file. The tool processes the image itself and strips embedded metadata; use the separate checker to review supported provenance signals if needed.
Why can a ChatGPT image take more time?
Your wait can include initial startup, queued images and additional work on dense text. Use the status beside the image to see when the download is available.
