About Lightmus — AI content scanner

Is that photo real? Was that video made with AI? Did a person write this, or a chatbot? Lightmus answers as you browse. Turn it on and it looks at the images, videos and text on the page you're viewing, pins a small litmus badge on anything worth a second look, and shows you the evidence behind the result when you click it. HOW IT WORKS • Quick pass, on your device: visible images, videos and long passages are checked for tell-tale signs, such as AI labels added by the site or creator, AI mentions in captions, image sizes typical of AI generators, and AI-style writing. Nothing from the quick pass leaves your browser. • Made for busy pages: Lightmus only badges what's actually on screen, and empty badges appear only when you hover, so pages stay clean. • Deep checks where they matter: the largest images and videos on a page get the full Lightmus analysis automatically (up to 3 per page and 10 per day on the free plan, adjustable or switchable off). Anything else is one click away, or use the right-click menu. • Video: Lightmus captures pairs of frames half a second apart during playback and compares them for details that change when they shouldn't. Camera cuts are detected, so ordinary editing isn't mistaken for AI. • Text: Lightmus quotes the exact phrases that read as machine-written. Page text is only sent when you click to check it. EVIDENCE, NOT VERDICTS Every result is a litmus strip from "authentic" to "manipulated", plus the specific findings behind it and how confident each one is. "Inconclusive" is a real answer, and Lightmus never fakes certainty. YOU'RE IN CONTROL • One switch to turn scanning on or off, and a one-tap pause for any site • Choose how many automatic checks run per page, or turn them off • No account needed, no ads, and your data is never sold FREE TO USE On-device scanning is unlimited. Deep checks are free up to 5 clicked checks and 10 automatic checks a day. Privacy policy: https://lightmus.com/privacy
