Images & faces modules & options
The Images & faces search type presents eight image Modules arranged in a grid. Each Module is a card you click; selecting one loads its description, query form, and Cost-per-search line below the grid. Selection is single-select — the active tile carries a coral-orange border. All eight Modules take the same input: one uploaded image.

Module details
Section titled “Module details”Fake Image Check (authenticity)
Section titled “Fake Image Check (authenticity)”The Fake Image Check tile is subtitled “Detect manipulated images” and was the selected Module in the captured frame. Its description panel reads:
“Analyse an image for signs of manipulation or AI generation. Detects edits, splicing, and other forensic indicators.”
- Cost: the cost line reads “Cost per search: Free.”
- Action button: captured as “Analyse Image” (magnifying-glass icon).
Face Search — FaceCheck.id
Section titled “Face Search — FaceCheck.id”Reverse face search: match a face from your uploaded photo across the web. data source: FaceCheck.id. See the FaceCheck.id integration page.
Image Geo-location — Picarta / FindPicLocation
Section titled “Image Geo-location — Picarta / FindPicLocation”Two separate geo-location Modules estimate where a photo was taken:
- Image Geo-location (Data: Picarta) — see Picarta.
- Image Geo-location (Data: FindPicLocation) — see FindPicLocation.
They are distinct Modules with distinct data sources; run whichever you prefer, or both, to compare predicted locations.
Reverse image — TinEye / Google Lens
Section titled “Reverse image — TinEye / Google Lens”Two reverse-image Modules find where else a picture appears online:
- Image (Data: Tineye) — see TinEye.
- Image (Data: Google Lens) — see Google Lens.
Face Search (18+) — CamGirlFinder
Section titled “Face Search (18+) — CamGirlFinder”Face Search (18+) (Data: CamGirlFinder) matches a face against the adult (18+) sites its data source indexes, kept separate from the general-purpose Face Search. Restricted to lawful, legitimate purposes — see the CamGirlFinder data source for the full 18+ restricted-use warning.
Image (OneScan) — multi-source
Section titled “Image (OneScan) — multi-source”Image (OneScan) is the multi-source Module for this search type, subtitled “Multi-source scan” and tagged RECOMMENDED. OneScan runs your one uploaded image against several image data sources at once and merges the results, giving broader coverage than any single-source Module in one run. In the results, the Data Source column then attributes each row to the data source it came from. See the OneScan concept.
- Cost is dynamic: a OneScan search costs the sum of the data sources left toggled on (per Lee, 2026-07-08). Turning data sources off lowers the cost and narrows coverage — this is the lever you pull to trade coverage against spend.
Choose Data Source (the gear icon)
Section titled “Choose Data Source (the gear icon)”The OneScan tile carries a gear (settings) icon alongside its ”?” help icon. Clicking the gear opens the Choose Data Source modal, where — as documented generally in The search model and OneScan — you:
- toggle each data source on/off with a checkbox, each row showing its own per-search cost;
- read a Total cost line that sums the enabled data sources (this matches the composer’s OneScan cost line);
- optionally tick “Remember my choice and hide this from future searches” to persist your selection;
- commit with Apply Filters, revert with Reset, or dismiss with Close / ×.
Per-search filters & other tile affordances
Section titled “Per-search filters & other tile affordances”- Upload input. The only per-search input is the “Upload an Image” file picker (Choose File / “No file chosen”). This search type shows no entity-type tab strip (unlike Public Leaks) — the upload is the sole input.
- Per-tile ”?” help icon. Every tile carries a circular ”?” help icon that opens Module-specific help. Its content is not captured.
- Film-strip icon. Some tiles (Fake Image Check, Face Search / FaceCheck.id, Image / TinEye) additionally show a film-strip icon, understood to be a tutorial/video affordance (destination not captured).
