About Essential — AI Image Detector

Essential lets you scan any image on the web for AI generation, directly from your right-click menu. HOW IT WORKS Right-click any image → "Scan with Essential" → get a confidence score in seconds. The result shows three signals: technical pixel analysis, visual perception patterns, and content reasoning (to catch impossible or surreal scenes that pixel analysis misses). FEATURES • One right-click scan on any image across the web • Three-signal breakdown: Technical, Visual, and Content analysis • Detects Midjourney, DALL·E, Stable Diffusion, Flux, Adobe Firefly, and more • Shows the likely AI generator when detected • Syncs with your Essential account, scan history and quota carry over • Works with your existing free or paid Essential plan ACCOUNT REQUIRED The extension requires a free Essential account. Sign up at essentialai-app.com. Free users get 10 scans per day. Unlimited scans available with a monthly plan. PRIVACY The extension does not track your browsing. It only activates when you explicitly right-click an image. Image URLs are sent to our API for analysis and are not stored. See our full privacy policy at essentialai-app.com/privacy.html.
