How it gets flagged
Uploaded images and video frames are screened for generative-model signatures as part of the same automated pass that checks for other policy issues.
For TikTok creators
Keep AI-assisted visuals off the For You blacklist.
TikTok labels and suppresses AI-generated visuals as a matter of policy, and a suppressed post can quietly kill your reach for days. Run every image through the Forge before it goes into a video, cover, or carousel.
The risk
A suppressed first hour rarely recovers.
TikTok's moderation pipeline screens visual content for AI-generation signatures as part of its labeling policy, on top of the usual community-guideline review, and the algorithm decides most of a post's fate in its first hour.
What happens when caught
An AI-generated label placed over the content, suppressed placement on the For You page, and for repeat flags a review of monetization eligibility.
Why it matters
TikTok's algorithm rewards early engagement. A suppressed first hour rarely recovers, whatever you do to the post after.
Detectors this page targets
Calibrated against the detectors that matter here.
These are the detectors most commonly built into short-form platform moderation and the ones used to check content after the fact. The Forge calibrates against all of them.
Hive Moderation
Used across short-form platforms for automated content classification at upload.
Decopy AI
Specializes in catching AI-generated imagery inside social content.
Sightengine
A moderation API layer that scans visual uploads before they go live.

Questions
Before you start.
Does this work for video covers and photo carousels, not just single images?
Yes. Anything that starts as a still image, including a cover frame or a carousel slide, goes through the same Forge workflow.
Will this fix a video that already has a video-level AI label?
The Forge processes still images. A label applied to generated video itself is outside what an image workflow can address.
Do I need any technical skill to use this?
No. Upload or generate an image, run it through the Forge, and download the result.
