Google Opens SynthID AI Media Checker to Everyone

Oct 7, 2026
Google has opened its SynthID verification website to the public, allowing users to check images, videos, and audio for its invisible AI watermark.

Google opened its SynthID verification website to everyone on Tuesday, according to TechCrunch. The site lets users upload images, videos, and audio files to check for the invisible watermark Google places in media created by supported AI tools.

The checker supports common formats including JPG, PNG, GIF, MP4, MOV, MP3, WAV, and FLAC. Google previously made the tool available to selected journalists, media professionals, and researchers for testing.

Google uses SynthID across Nano Banana, Veo, Lyria, Gemini, Flow, ProducerAI, and Vids. OpenAI, Nvidia, and Kakao also support the watermarking system. SynthID verification is already available in Gemini and Chrome, and Google says users submit 1 million verification requests each day.

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
