About Verity Lab

Verity Lab samples frames from a video and measures simple patterns: how much the picture changes between frames, how varied the texture is, and how heavily the video is compressed. The result is a rough indicator, not proof. It is not an AI-video detector and cannot say whether a video is real or fake.

How to run a frame check

  1. Choose a video

    Pick an MP4, MOV or WebM file, up to 500 MB.

  2. Run the check

    The tool samples several frames and measures motion, texture and compression.

  3. Read the result

    You get a score and three measurements with plain explanations.

  4. Verify the source

    Treat unusual patterns as a reason to look closer, then check where the video came from.

What it measures

Temporal smoothness

How much the picture changes from one sampled frame to the next.

Texture variation

How varied the fine detail is across frames.

Compression profile

Estimated bitrate, which shows how heavily a clip was compressed.

Plain-language result

A score with notes on every measurement.

Local processing

The video is analysed in your browser.

Clear limits

The page states what the score can and cannot tell you.

When it can help

  • Getting a rough first look at an unfamiliar clip
  • Comparing how compressed two versions of a video are
  • Learning how simple video statistics behave

Frequently asked questions

Can this tell me if a video is AI-generated?

No. It measures simple frame patterns only. Screen recordings, animation and heavily compressed videos can look 'unusual' without being fake, and fake videos can look ordinary. Use it as a rough hint and always check the source.

Is the video uploaded?

No. It is analysed in your browser.

What does the score mean?

It combines three measurements into a rough indicator of unusual smoothness or compression. It is not a probability that a video is fake.

Which files can I use?

MP4, MOV and WebM files up to 500 MB that your browser can decode.

Why is it called experimental?

Reliable detection of manipulated media needs specialised models and expert review. This tool is a simple demonstration of frame statistics.
