From detection to takedown, all in one place
No other service combines misuse detection, evidence preservation, and takedown enforcement in one place. Here is why we built it that way.
The problem is bigger than AI
AI-generated deepfakes get the headlines, but the misuse of someone's face and photos is not limited to artificial intelligence. People steal profile pictures and use them to create fake accounts. They screenshot private photos and share them without consent. They take images from one context and place them in another to harass, impersonate, or embarrass. Some of this involves AI tools, and some of it is as simple as a right-click and a reupload.
Whatever the method, the impact is the same. Your likeness ends up somewhere you never agreed to, being used for purposes you never intended. And once it is out there, getting it removed is your problem to solve.
Why handling it alone feels impossible
When you discover your photos being misused, you are suddenly expected to become your own investigator, your own legal advisor, and your own content moderator. You have to document what you found, figure out which platform it is on, learn that platform's reporting process, file the report in the right format, and then wait and hope someone actually reviews it.
If the content appears on multiple platforms or keeps getting reuploaded, that process multiplies. Each platform has its own rules, its own forms, and its own timeline. Meanwhile, the content continues to spread. For many people, this is overwhelming, especially when the misuse is personal or humiliating. The same person who has already been harmed is expected to manage every step of their own case.
What Protect My Face does differently
Protect My Face is built around the idea that you should not have to handle this alone. The service is designed to detect where your face appears, preserve the evidence, and take action to get unauthorized content removed, whether it was created with AI or not.
The difference is not that takedowns exist in theory. Every platform has a report button somewhere. The difference is making the process manageable in practice. Instead of learning a different reporting system for every platform, chasing down reuploads yourself, or wondering whether you have enough evidence for a legal claim, the service handles the work so you can focus on moving forward.
It covers the full range of misuse
This is not a service built for one narrow type of abuse. It is designed to cover the range of ways your photos and likeness can be misused. That includes AI-generated content, but it also includes stolen selfies used for catfishing, private photos shared without consent, images repurposed for fake endorsements, and any other situation where your face is being used in ways you did not approve.
The common thread is consent. If your likeness is being used without it, Protect My Face is built to help you do something about it.
The emotional cost matters too
People often frame image misuse as a technical problem or a legal problem. It is also an emotional one. Every time you have to look at the content, file another report, or check whether it has been taken down yet, you are forced to relive the violation. That cycle of discovery, documentation, and waiting takes a real toll.
That is why the process itself matters. A system that expects you to do everything alone can make the harm worse. A service designed to step in, handle the work, and reduce the number of painful decisions you have to make is not just more efficient. It is part of the protection.
