How we measure it
An AI vision model looks at a reduced copy of your image and answers a fixed set of questions — is anything in the frame besides the product, is it a real photograph, is the whole product in frame, is it in retail packaging, is it shown once, is a photorealistic person shown. It can mark a rule as passed or ask you to check it yourself — it never fails an image on its own. Where a rule also needs the file's metadata (like Amazon's tag for AI-generated people), we read it from the file you uploaded.
