Image Copyright Checker
Upload an image and we'll check it for copyright red flags — watermarks, stock photo signatures, brand logos — using AI analysis. Instant results, free for every Rotarian.
Six areas we look at
Our AI reviews your image for common copyright red flags so you can publish with confidence.
Watermarks
Visible watermarks from stock libraries or photographers that signal restricted use.
Stock photo signatures
ID numbers, codes, or metadata overlays left by commercial image libraries.
Brand logos & trademarks
Recognisable logos or brand marks that may restrict how the image can be used.
Text overlays
Embedded text, credits, or copyright notices that suggest ownership.
Identifiable people
Faces and recognisable individuals who may need to give consent under GDPR.
Overall risk assessment
How trustworthy the image source is, based on where you got it and your licence status.
Three simple steps
- 1. Upload. Choose the image you want to check — JPG, PNG, WebP or GIF, up to 10 MB.
- 2. Answer. Tell us where the image came from, what you’ll use it for, and whether anyone is identifiable in it.
- 3. Get your verdict. Our AI analyses the image in seconds and gives you a traffic-light risk rating with specific advice.

This is guidance, not legal advice
This tool uses AI to flag common copyright risks, but it cannot guarantee an image is free of all restrictions. When in doubt, use the official Rotary Brand Centre for approved imagery, or submit your artwork for a human review by the District Public Image team.
