Small Tkinter app: drop images in, get SynthID-cleaned copies out, with an option to strip EXIF/XMP/IPTC metadata from the output. Runs offline on the existing V3 codebook, no PyTorch required.

# SynthID Cleaner (GUI)
|
|
|
|
A small drag-and-drop desktop app around this repo's V3 spectral bypass
|
|
(`src/extraction/synthid_bypass.py`). Useful for e.g. removing the SynthID
|
|
watermark left behind after using generative AI to restore old photographs.
|
|
|
|
- Drop images in, get cleaned copies out — no command line needed after setup.
|
|
- Optionally strips all EXIF/XMP/IPTC metadata from the output (including any
|
|
AI-generation provenance tags such as C2PA content credentials or IPTC
|
|
`DigitalSourceType`), by rebuilding the file from raw pixel data.
|
|
- Runs fully offline. No network calls, no telemetry.
|
|
- Uses V3 (pure signal processing — numpy/scipy/opencv only, no PyTorch
|
|
required, no GPU needed).
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd gui
|
|
python3 -m venv venv
|
|
source venv/bin/activate
|
|
pip install -r requirements-gui.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Run
|
|
|
|
Double-click `Launch SynthID Cleaner.command`, or from the terminal:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd gui
|
|
source venv/bin/activate
|
|
python gui.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The first double-click sets up the venv automatically if it doesn't exist yet.
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- Reads the codebook from `../artifacts/spectral_codebook_v3.npz` (already in
|
|
this repo) — no extra downloads.
