How does copyright image search work?
Upload your photo
JPG, PNG or WEBP, up to 10MB. Use the original or a high-quality export. Embedded watermarks do not need to be removed; the engine matches the underlying image.
The engine scans public pages
We compare the visual fingerprint of your image against millions of indexed public web pages. Candidates arrive ranked by match confidence as they are scored.
Click the source URL to verify and act
Open each match to confirm the use. If it is unauthorized, capture the URL, then move to a takedown, a licensing email, or a host complaint. Our DMCA tools help with the next step.
Why use Face Search AI for image rights?
We index only the public web, return the source URL on every match, and price the casual tier at zero so a working photographer can spot-check a portfolio without committing to a subscription.
Source URL on every match (DMCA-ready)
Every result links to the exact public page where your photo appears. That URL is the evidence you need for a takedown notice, a host complaint, or a licensing conversation.
Scans the public web in seconds
Match candidates start arriving inside about 5 seconds. The engine keeps scanning for about 30 seconds total so you see late results without rerunning the search.
3 free searches per day to start
No card, no signup. Run a quick portfolio spot-check, see what you find, then upgrade only if the volume justifies it.
API access for higher volume
Photographers, agencies, and brand teams can monitor a catalog continuously through our API. Batch endpoints, webhooks, and rate limits sized for production use.
Who uses copyright image search?
Photographers tracking unauthorized portfolio use
Wedding, editorial, and stock photographers find scraped portfolio shots on competitor sites, AI training mirrors, and unlicensed reblog accounts. Pair with our DMCA tools for the takedown workflow.
Artists finding stolen artwork or AI-generated derivatives
Illustrators and digital artists spot reuploaded pieces on print-on-demand stores and AI-derived variants that mimic their composition. Capture every source URL, then file the appropriate notice.
Brand teams monitoring product photography misuse
In-house creative and brand teams audit where their hero shots appear off-channel. Spot competitor blogs, knockoff listings, and unlicensed dropshippers using your studio work.
E-commerce sellers protecting their product images
Shopify, Etsy, and Amazon sellers find listings that lifted their photos. Use the API if you run hundreds of SKUs and need continuous coverage rather than one-off lookups.
Common questions
How does copyright image search work?
You upload a photo you own. Face Search AI compares the visual fingerprint of that image against millions of public web pages and returns ranked matches, each with the source URL where the image appears. You then open each source page to confirm the use and decide whether it is licensed, fair-use, or infringing.
Can I find every site using my photo?
No tool can guarantee 100 percent coverage. We index the public web, the pages anyone can open in a browser without a login. Private accounts, paywalled archives, image board mirrors that block crawlers, and freshly published pages we have not crawled yet may not appear. For high-stakes monitoring, run the same image periodically rather than once.
Do you offer DMCA takedown services?
Yes. Our DMCA tools offer prepared notice templates and a workflow for sending takedowns to hosts and platforms. The copyright search gives you the evidence URL; the DMCA tooling helps you act on it.
How accurate is the matching?
Accuracy depends on how much the image has been altered. Exact reuploads and lightly cropped versions match with high confidence. Heavy edits, recolors, AI-generated derivatives, and watermark removal reduce the score. Always click through to the source page to confirm a match before sending a legal notice; never act on a similarity score alone.
What about higher-volume scanning?
Casual users get 3 free searches per day, which is enough to spot-check a portfolio. Photographers, agencies, and brand teams running continuous monitoring should use our API for pricing, rate limits, and batch endpoints.
Is this legal?
Yes. Searching publicly available images for your own copyrighted work is a standard part of enforcement, and Face Search AI only indexes the public web. We do not bypass logins, paywalls, or anti-crawler controls. Filing a DMCA notice is a separate legal action you take based on what the search reveals.
