About UsJobsContactLaw enforcement agencies and public authorities increasingly rely on digital images and documents as evidence: crime scene photos, submitted records, footage from social media. With today's AI tools, all of it can be faked. VAARHAFT's Fraud Scanner analyzes digital images and documents for manipulation and gives investigators a documented, defensible basis for their decisions.
AI-generatedGenerative AI makes it possible to create photorealistic images that leave no visible trace of manipulation. Documents can be convincingly forged in minutes. Metadata can be altered. And authorities that depend on submitted images or records have had few tools to detect manipulation quickly and with a clear audit trail.
Images of alleged accidents, damages, or events can be entirely AI-generated. Without technical analysis, this is not detectable by the human eye.
ID cards, driving licenses, certificates, contracts, and official records can be convincingly falsified using freely available tools. The giveaways are in the details, not at first glance.
Images from social media or submitted by witnesses may have been altered before they reach the authority. Context gets reversed, people are removed or added.
Digital images submitted without proof of origin cannot be reliably linked to a specific time or device. That weakens their value in investigations and in court.
VAARHAFT provides two tools that are directly deployable for law enforcement and public administration.
Analyzes digital images and documents for AI generation, pixel-level manipulation, metadata anomalies, and duplicate content. Results are available within seconds and include a full, explainable report with heatmap, metadata breakdown, and duplicate search output.
Suitable for: Evidence verification, document checks, digital forensics, fraud investigations
A camera app that automatically creates a cryptographic authenticity certificate at the moment of capture. The certificate proves the time of capture, the device used, and that the image has not been altered since.
Suitable for: First responders at crime scenes, expert witnesses, official documentation

Book a DemoHow VAARHAFT supports investigators and public administration at every stage of the evidence lifecycle.
An image is submitted as part of a property damage investigation. It shows damage to a vehicle and appears plausible at first glance. The Fraud Scanner detects within seconds that several areas of the image were altered after the fact. The heatmap marks the manipulated regions precisely. The duplicate check additionally reveals that the same base image was already recorded in a previous case. The result is exported as a PDF report and added to the case file before any further steps are taken.
A complete analysis takes under five seconds. No lengthy expert review process, no external service provider required.
Heatmap, metadata report, and duplicate search results provide concrete, documentable evidence. No blanket verdict that cannot be substantiated.
Images captured with SafeCam carry a cryptographic certificate. The chain of custody is secured from the moment of capture.
For authorities with strict data sovereignty requirements, all analysis takes place entirely within the internal network.
Whether via drag-and-drop web tool or REST API into existing case management systems: minimal implementation effort.
AI forgery methods evolve continuously. VAARHAFT updates its detection models on an ongoing basis without requiring changes on the customer side.
VAARHAFT is ready to use immediately. No lengthy rollout, no prior technical knowledge required.
Upload images and documents directly in the browser and receive a full analysis report within seconds.
Integrates into existing case management systems, document management platforms, or investigation tools.
For authorities with elevated data security requirements. All analysis within the authority's own infrastructure.
An image or document is submitted, whether through a portal, by email, or directly by field officers.
VAARHAFT checks for AI generation, manipulation, metadata anomalies, and duplicates. Result in under five seconds.
No anomalies: directly into the regular processing workflow. Flagged: to manual review with a full evidence package.
The analysis report is exported as a PDF and added to the case file.

The Fraud Scanner delivers a technical assessment based on statistical models, not a legally certified expert opinion. However, the heatmap, metadata report, and duplicate search results provide a documented, traceable basis that can be used in investigations and as a starting point for formal forensic assessments.
JPEG, PNG, TIFF, HEIC, and PDF. Multiple files can be submitted as a ZIP archive. Results are returned individually for each file.
No. All files are processed solely for the purpose of analysis and deleted immediately afterwards. No permanent storage takes place. Duplicate detection uses an anonymized hashing process that requires no data retention.
Yes. The document analysis checks PDFs and scanned documents for font artifacts, inserted layers, metadata inconsistencies, and other manipulation indicators. It does not replace a full forensic examination but delivers concrete flags on suspicious documents within seconds.
The certificate proves the time of capture, the device used, and that the image has not been altered since it was taken. It is cryptographically secured and can be verified independently of VAARHAFT.
The web tool is ready to use immediately, with no setup required. API integration into existing systems depends on the technical environment. VAARHAFT provides documentation and onboarding support.
Yes. Images and documents are not stored and are not used for model training. All processing is carried out in compliance with applicable data protection regulations.
