Every claim here is one the code can be checked against.
Built by Andy Chung. What it is, what it refuses to say, and how that is kept true.
What this is
A place to open an image and read what is embedded in it — EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC, ICC, the Photoshop resource block, maker notes, and each format's own structure. JPEG can also be edited: fields changed, location dropped, the EXIF segment removed, each producing a new file. Everything runs in the browser. There is no account and no server that ever sees the picture.
The sentence this site will not write
Every competing tool implies a one-click wipe. Removing EXIF from a JPEG deletes one APP1 segment; XMP sits in a second APP1, IPTC in an APP13 resource block, and an ICC profile in APP2, and all three survive it. Saying so costs a sales line and is the only thing here a competitor cannot repeat without conceding they were overstating. It is the reason this site exists in a category that already had twenty tools in it.
How that is kept true when nobody is looking
The claims the product must never make are written down as a list, per term, in the repository. That list is translated into every language the site ships in and checked against the copy when the site is built, so a page that says the wrong thing fails the build instead of going live. This matters because the site is going into languages nobody here reads, and because the category's standard phrasing is exactly the phrasing that is false here.
What it does not do
One photo at a time; there is no queue and no folder. Writing is JPEG only, because putting a valid metadata block back needs a per-format writer and only JPEG has one that works in a browser. A file the browser cannot decode — a raw file, a TIFF in some browsers — can be read and not cleaned, and says so rather than offering a button that would fail. The embedded thumbnail, a sidecar file and a Live Photo's video are not read, and a tag that is absent is left absent rather than filled in with a guess.
