This guide walks you through detecting whether an image is AI-generated — from uploading an image to reading the detection result.

Prerequisites

  • A BIZ MORI API key (get one here)
  • An image file to analyze (jpeg, jpg, png, webp, bmp, or tiff)

Step 1: Create an order

Create an AI Detection order with your image file name.
Response:
You can optionally request heatmap and overlay images by adding "options": { "generateHeatmap": true, "generateOverlay": true } to the request body. These will be available in the order detail once processing completes.

Step 2: Upload the file

PUT your file to the presigned uploadUrl from Step 1. This is a direct S3 upload — no Authorization header needed.
cURL
The presigned upload URL expires after 1 hour. Upload your image before it expires.

Step 3: Confirm the order

After uploading, call confirm to start detection processing:

Step 4: Check the result

Poll the order or use webhooks to receive a push notification when detection completes. The detection result is included directly in the order detail — there is no separate download step.
Response:

Reading the result

The probability field (0–1) indicates how likely the image is AI-generated. The statusCode provides a human-readable interpretation:
heatmapUrl and overlayUrl are only present if you requested them via options.generateHeatmap and options.generateOverlay in Step 1.
