Strip JPEG Metadata

See exactly what a JPEG’s metadata reveals — GPS coordinates, camera body, serial numbers, editing history — then strip it with a byte-level splice. Lossless means literal here: every image pixel comes back identical.

How it works

  1. Drop a photo, or many, or a ZIP, for a batch. The panel immediately shows what it found: location, camera, dates.
  2. Choose whether to keep the colour profile (recommended); everything else goes.
  3. Download the cleaned file, or the whole batch as a ZIP. Same pixels, none of the metadata.

Questions

Is the image data really untouched?
Yes. JPEG metadata lives in marker segments between the compressed image data, so removing it is a splice of bytes around the picture, not a recompression of the picture itself. The tool shows you the report of what was removed before you download.
Does my file get uploaded?
No. The models and all processing run inside your browser on your own device. You can verify this yourself: open your browser’s DevTools, watch the Network tab, and process a file: there are no uploads. After the first visit most tools also work fully offline.
Does removing metadata change the image quality?
No. The metadata lives in separate sections of the file; this tool splices those sections out without re-encoding, so the pixels are bit-for-bit identical. That is verified automatically for every supported format.
Which formats are supported?
JPEG, PNG and WebP. Anything the tool cannot parse safely is left completely untouched and it tells you so, because a metadata remover that corrupts files would be worse than none.
Why does this matter?
A photo taken at home and shared online can contain your exact coordinates. Social networks usually strip metadata on upload, but files shared by email, chat or cloud drives keep everything.
