What makes AI Yakala different?

What sets AI Yakala apart from other AI detectors?

We do not judge by a single percentage. We show the traces that are really in the file: Content Credentials (C2PA) signatures, file metadata and invisible watermarks. The report says plainly which checks ran, what we found and what we did not. We also give an estimate based on how an image looks, but apart from the evidence and labelled as an estimate.

Why don't you give a clear-cut result like “98% AI”?

Because it would not be honest. Models that judge by appearance or style sometimes take real photos and human writing for AI, and a wrong “AI” verdict can hurt someone's reputation. When a file carries a signed AI record we say so with certainty; when all we have is an estimate, we say it is an estimate.

Why are your prices lower?

Our prices are in Turkish lira and include VAT. Most similar tools are sold in dollars, by monthly subscription. Here a subscription is optional: you can just buy credits, and they never expire. The analysis runs on our own server, so we pay no other company per check, and that saving is in the price. The smallest pack is 10 credits for TRY 59.

How can I verify your results?

Every report says which checks ran and what each finding rests on. Content Credentials (C2PA) are an open standard, so you can check the same file with another C2PA reader. When you share a report by link, the other person sees the same evidence.

Results

Is the result certain?

A signed Content Credential is very strong evidence. Finding no trace does not mean the file was made by a person; the traces may have been removed. The report says clearly which of these applies.

If no trace is found, is the content real?

We cannot say that for sure. Many AI tools leave no trace at all, and social networks and messaging apps often strip the traces from files. “No trace found” does not mean “proven real”.

Why does a photo from WhatsApp show no trace?

Messaging apps and social networks often strip a file's data when they compress it. Ask for the original file if you can. For an image without traces we also look at its appearance and report that separately.

Can you tell whether a text was written by AI?

No, and no tool that claims to should be taken as certain. Only the AI companies themselves can read the watermarks they put in text. Our free text check finds invisible characters hidden in a text and shows them in place.

Prices and payment

Does it cost anything?

Text checks are free. A file check uses 1 credit.

Do new accounts get anything free?

Yes. New accounts get 3 free file checks, with no card needed.

Should I buy credits or a package?

Buy credits if you check now and then; credits never expire. If you check every day, a daily package is better value: for 30 days it gives you a number of checks each day. When the day's checks run out, checks use your credits.

How can I pay?

By credit or debit card, or by bank transfer. Card payments are made on the secure page of iyzico, a licensed payment institution: your card details never reach us, and your purchase is added at once. For a transfer, put the code from your order in the description; it is added within one working day of the payment reaching us.

Can I get a refund?

You can withdraw from credits or a package you have not used within 14 days, without giving a reason. If a check cannot be completed because of a technical problem, its credit comes back by itself. Details are on the “Delivery and refunds” page.

Is there a discount for students or teachers?

Yes. Students and teachers who verify a school email address get 20% off every package.

What do you offer organizations?

A team package, bulk upload of up to 50 files at once, and an API to send checks from your own systems. For larger needs, ask for a quote through the contact form.

Privacy and security

What happens to my file?

Your file is used only for the check and is deleted as soon as the check ends. What remains is the report and the file's fingerprint (SHA-256), not the file.

Who can see my report?

At first only you. You can share the report by link if you like, and turn sharing off again at any time.

Where is my data kept?

Our servers are in Turkey. We process your personal data under KVKK, Turkey's data protection law, and use no advertising, analytics or tracking cookies.

How do I delete my account?

Send a deletion request from the account settings page. We settle it within 30 days at the latest and let you know by email.

Using it

Which files can I check?

Photos, videos and audio files, each up to 100 MB. You can upload 50 files at once.

Can I use it from my phone or other apps?

The site works on phones too. You can send files to our Telegram bot, and with the Chrome extension you can right-click images on any site to check them.
