Labelcleanup

AI metadata cleaner that removes hidden AI tags and personal data from photos and videos before sharing.

Overview

Labelcleanup is a metadata inspection and cleaning tool designed for content creators who want to control what information travels with their photos and videos before posting to social media. The service scans files to detect AI source declarations (such as Content Credentials), GPS coordinates, capture dates, device information, and creator metadata—then allows subscribers to remove supported metadata blocks while preserving the image or video itself.

The workflow is straightforward: upload your final export for a free scan to see what metadata is present, review the findings, then subscribe to clean and download a verified copy. Labelcleanup does not re-encode media or erase visible watermarks; it focuses exclusively on file metadata. The tool supports JPEG, PNG, WebP, TIFF, DNG, MP4, and MOV files up to 200 MB and is tailored for Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, X, LinkedIn, and Pinterest.
