Audio
- Content CredentialsA signed record (C2PA) of how the file was made, sealed so any change shows.
Not stated. None of Meta's pages listed under Sources read says so.
- Invisible watermarkA signal woven into the pixels, frames, audio or wording, meant to survive copying.
Meta's AudioSeal repository describes AudioSeal as an MIT-licensed audio watermarking method robust to compression, re-encoding and noise, and dates its full MIT license to April 2, 2024. Meta's December 12, 2024 Video Seal post lists Audio Seal among earlier work available for download.
Meta does not say it applies AudioSeal to its own products.

Quoted passage Meta Video Seal
Today, we’re releasing Meta Video Seal, a state-of-the art comprehensive framework for neural video watermarking. Video Seal adds a watermark (with an optional hidden message) into videos that is imperceptible to the naked eye and can later be uncovered to determine a video’s origin. The watermark has proven resilience against common video editing efforts like blurring or cropping, as well as compression algorithms commonly used when sharing content online. We’re publicly releasing the Video Seal model under a permissive license, along with a research paper, training code, and inference code." "Watermark Anything, Video Seal, and Audio Seal—our previous work on post-hoc audio watermarking—are now all available for download and ready to be integrated.
- AI label in metadataA plain metadata field (IPTC Digital Source Type) saying AI made the content. Anyone can add or remove it.
Not stated. None of Meta's pages listed under Sources read says so.
- Visible markA mark you can see, such as a logo or a sparkle in a corner.
Not stated. None of Meta's pages listed under Sources read says so.
- Tool named in metadataThe tool or model written into ordinary file fields, such as Software or Creator.
Not stated. None of Meta's pages listed under Sources read says so.
Limits and detection
- Checking tool from the makerA way the maker offers to check a file for its traces.
Meta's AudioSeal repository releases AudioSeal under the MIT license.
