Remove metadata from images created with Midjourney

Clean Midjourney metadata

When you download a Midjourney image from the web or from Discord, the file rarely travels “clean”: it carries embedded metadata that describes how it was made. That can include XMP/IPTC blocks with authorship or AI-generation notes and, more and more often, C2PA credentials (Content Credentials) that mark the file as generated content.

Remove IA Label reads those blocks and removes them without recompressing the image or changing a single pixel. The result looks identical to the original (you can verify it by comparing the pixel hash).

JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, HEIC · up to 5 photos · 100 MB · no GIF · pixels untouched. iCloud or cloud? Download the full original; files under 4 KB are usually a proxy.

What trail Midjourney usually leaves

The typical trail lives in the metadata, not in the visible image:

XMP / IPTC: description, authorship or “generated with AI” notes that some flows add on export.
C2PA / Content Credentials: a signed manifest that declares the file’s origin. It is the most persistent trail and the one that most clearly identifies an image as AI.
EXIF: a smaller block, but worth checking because it sometimes keeps data from the download or edit step.

We do not assume a fixed field name for every Midjourney version. The checker shows exactly what your file contains before anything is deleted.

How to clean it

1. Upload the image to the checker to see whether it carries C2PA, EXIF or XMP. 2. Pick the cleaning mode: /c2pa for provenance credentials, /exif and /xmp for the rest. 3. Download the clean file. It is not recompressed: the pixels stay intact.

Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF and HEIC.

What cannot be removed

What we remove is metadata and provenance credentials. If an image carried an invisible pixel-level watermark, that is not removed, because it lives in the pixels and not in a file header. Midjourney has no public, documented pixel mark like some other providers, but the limit still stands: removing metadata is not the same as guaranteeing an image is undetectable.

Privacy

The image is uploaded to our server, processed and deleted after 5 minutes. It is not used for training, we add no watermark, no account is required and the service is free.

Frequently asked questions

Does it change the quality of my Midjourney image?

No. We do not recompress or rescale: we only remove metadata headers. The pixels are identical to the original and you can check that with a hash.

Is the “generated with AI” mark removed?

It is removed if that mark lives in the file’s metadata or C2PA credentials. An invisible pixel-level mark, if one existed, cannot be removed.

What happens to my file afterwards?

It is processed on the server and deleted after 5 minutes. It is not used for training, it is not logged and it is not watermarked.
