- 2
See what it carries
Credentials, AI declarations, generator names and prompt text are listed.
- 3
Decide with the facts
Know what a platform will read before you post.
Why this page checks instead of telling
Leonardo.Ai has not published which provenance metadata its downloads carry. Third-party sites make confident claims in both directions, and models and export settings change between releases, so any fixed answer here would go stale.
Your file is the answer that stays true. The checker reads it in your browser and reports what is physically there.
What to look for
Four things decide how a Leonardo image is treated once you share it:
- A C2PA manifest — its signer tells you who certified the image as AI, and platforms such as Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn read it.
- An IPTC digital source type declaring the image AI-generated, which Meta and Pinterest read.
- A generator or software name in an ordinary tag.
- Prompt or parameter text in a description field, which shares how you made the image.
Leonardo, Canva and whose terms apply
Canva acquired Leonardo.Ai in July 2024, and Leonardo's Phoenix model powers Canva's Dream Lab. Canva's AI Product Terms prohibit removing provenance metadata from content made with Canva's AI features.
Images made on leonardo.ai itself fall under Leonardo's own terms. Read them before removing anything a Leonardo file carries; this page reads files and does not change them.
What this tool does
- Shows what a Leonardo image really contains, not what a blog claims
- Explains which platforms read which marker
- Read-only: nothing in the file is changed
What it does not do
- Does not remove anything — check Leonardo's terms first
- Cannot detect watermarks in the pixels
- Cannot say what other Leonardo exports carry; each file speaks for itself

Frequently asked questions
Does Leonardo AI add metadata to images?
Leonardo.Ai has not documented it, and reports disagree. Load a download above and the checker shows exactly what that file carries.
Does a Leonardo image contain my prompt?
It depends on the file. If prompt text sits in a description or parameters field, the checker lists it, so you can see before you share.
Can I remove metadata from Leonardo images?
Check Leonardo's terms first: some generators now prohibit removing provenance from their output. This page reads files and does not change them.
Will Instagram label my Leonardo image as AI?
If the file carries a C2PA credential or an IPTC AI declaration, expect it to. The checker shows whether either is present.
Is Leonardo.Ai part of Canva?
Yes. Canva acquired Leonardo.Ai in July 2024, and Leonardo's Phoenix model powers Canva's Dream Lab.
