The EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) splits labelling between two roles in Article 50. The company behind the AI service, the provider, must make sure the output is marked in a machine-readable way (paragraph 2). The person who uses the service, the deployer, must disclose it when the content is a deepfake, that is, an AI-generated or AI-altered image that resembles real people, places or events and could be mistaken for something genuine (paragraph 4). The same article contains a rule for certain AI-generated texts on matters of public interest. So there is no general requirement to label every AI image. The European Commission’s AI Office has published a set of official icons so the disclosure looks the same across media and countries. The icons are voluntary and do not in themselves prove that the rules have been followed. This tool places one of those icons on your images: you choose the label, colour, size and position, and download the image again in the same file format.
If in doubt, the broader AI label is the safest choice — it does not rule out the two more specific ones.
All processing happens in your browser. The images are not uploaded, stored or passed on — they never leave your machine. That makes the tool suitable for confidential images and personal data.
Metadata is kept. An ordinary canvas tool throws away the capture time, camera model, copyright and GPS data when the image is saved again. We copy EXIF and XMP from the original into the labelled file in all three formats, plus the colour profile for JPG. The orientation is reset because the pixels have already been rotated correctly.
C2PA is removed. A C2PA credential (Content Credentials) is signed over the unchanged image and could not be validated on an image with a label. It is therefore not carried over, and you are notified when you add a file that has one. Keep the original from the AI service if you need to document where the image came from.

Note: the label is a visual marking. The tool does not itself write any machine-readable AI marking into the file, neither C2PA nor IPTC. Under Art. 50(2), machine-readable marking is the provider’s responsibility, and a visible icon does not in itself satisfy the deployer’s disclosure duty under paragraph 4. If you are unsure what is required in your situation, seek legal advice.
