What it is
PixGuard scans website images and assigns each a copyright risk score from 0 to 100, with reasons for the result. Its detection pipeline checks metadata, stock-agency watermarks, reference fingerprints, signs of AI generation, similarity, and ambiguous cases using AI vision review on Pro and Business. Account scans follow links across up to 50 pages, subject to plan limits on new images. Users can also upload JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF images up to 10 MB; previous analyses can be rescanned free, and images the service cannot analyze are not charged. A free page check without signup examines the page’s three largest images. PixGuard offers a WordPress plugin for Media Library scans and full-site scans, plus a Chrome extension that shows a score, severity rating, and signal breakdown. API access is listed for Business. Plans include Free with 30 image scans valid for 30 days, Pro at $29 a month, Business at $79 a month, and a 300.00 USD one-time image pack. PixGuard says uploaded images are not permanently stored; image hashes are used for caching.
