Method 1

Re-encode the image

Use the tool below to decode the visible pixels and write them into a new image container.

Method 2

Screen-record the media

Play or display your authorized media full-screen, make a new screen recording, then trim the capture. The recording is a newly encoded file and does not inherit the source file’s embedded metadata.

LOCAL IMAGE UTILITY

Decode pixels. Write a clean file.

Your image stays in this browser. Re-encoding writes a new pixel file without carrying EXIF, IPTC, XMP, GPS, camera, or editor metadata from the source container.

Workflow

Privacy-safe export

  1. Choose an owned or authorized JPEG, PNG, or WebP file
  2. Select the output format and lossy quality where applicable
  3. Decode the visible pixels locally and encode a new metadata-free container
  4. Review and download the clean copy while retaining the original for provenance

Workflow

Publishing handoff

  1. Visually compare the clean copy with the source
  2. Add platform alt text and accessibility metadata at publish time
  3. Keep licensing and attribution records outside the stripped delivery file

Workflow
