Built in the open, so you can verify every byte
Privacy claims are easy to make. Code is easy to check. We are preparing the WipePic metadata engine for public release, so anyone can read how it handles their photos.
Auditable
Read the exact code that parses and cleans your files. No hidden steps.
Tested
The engine is checked against a large set of real camera, phone and AI-generated test files, and cross-checked with ExifTool.
Community-driven
Report a problem, suggest a format or improve a parser. Every contribution makes photos safer.
What will be published
- The metadata engine: JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, AVIF, GIF, TIFF and DNG readers and writers.
- The rules that decide which data is removed and which is kept.
- The test files and the test suite.

The code is in final review. Want to know when it goes live? Contact us, and we will tell you on release day.
