Amazon requires listing images that show an AI-generated model to carry the contains-synthetic-performer keyword in their metadata — under a New York law with $1,000–$5,000 penalties — and no photo editor writes it. This tool does: drop in a JPEG and download it back with Amazon's keyword and the IPTC provenance term written in. Pixels untouched, no signup, and your images never leave your device.

JPEG only · multiple files supported · pixels are untouched, only metadata is added
Both are XMP metadata inside the JPEG file — invisible to buyers, readable by marketplaces and regulators. The pixels are never re-encoded.
| Tag | When it's written | Who asks for it |
|---|---|---|
contains-synthetic-performer(XMP dc:subject) | Only when you say the image shows a photorealistic AI-generated person — Amazon exempts product-only images and real people | Amazon, worldwide since 23 July 2026, implementing New York GBL §396-b ($1,000 first violation, $5,000 thereafter) |
DigitalSourceType:trainedAlgorithmicMedia (IPTC) | Always — it marks the image as AI-generated, person or not | Google Merchant Center asks that AI-generated imagery retain this provenance term |
This tool writes published, standard metadata terms; it is not legal advice, and your listings' overall compliance remains yours to confirm. Full background in the disclosure-rule guide.
Pick "Shows an AI-generated person" for on-model shots (the default), or "No person" for flat lays and product-only images — Amazon's keyword only belongs on images with synthetic people.
One file or a whole catalog. Each gets the metadata segment spliced in locally; the tool then re-reads the file and confirms the tags are present before showing it as done.
Download the tagged files and upload them straight to the marketplace. Tag as the final step — an editor that re-saves the file afterwards may strip metadata.
Every image CatalogX generates and exports already carries these tags — written automatically on the app's downloads and the API's output, free on every plan. The on-model photo and the compliance arrive together.
Since 23 July 2026, Amazon requires listing images that show a photorealistic AI-generated person to carry the keyword contains-synthetic-performer in the image's XMP metadata (dc:subject field), worldwide. The requirement implements New York General Business Law §396-b, which carries penalties of $1,000 for a first violation and $5,000 for each subsequent one. This tool writes that keyword, plus the IPTC DigitalSourceType provenance term Google Merchant Center asks for.
No. The tagging happens entirely in your browser — the file is read locally, the metadata segment is inserted locally, and the download is produced locally. Your images never leave your device.
No. It inserts a metadata segment into the JPEG file structure without re-encoding the image, so the pixels are byte-for-byte untouched — same quality, same dimensions, no watermark. Only the file's embedded metadata changes.
Images showing a photorealistic AI-generated person. Product-only shots, flat lays and ghost-mannequin images are exempt, and photographs of real people are not synthetic performers. That is why this tool asks you whether the image shows an AI-generated person: tagging everything would be inaccurate, and an inaccurate label is worse than none. The IPTC provenance term, by contrast, applies to any AI-generated image.
The new XMP segment is inserted at the very front of the file's metadata, immediately after the JPEG start marker, so it is the first thing a reader encounters. Existing metadata is preserved untouched behind it. If your file already carries conflicting XMP from another tool, verify the result with a metadata inspector before uploading.
JPEG only, which is what every major marketplace accepts for listing images. PNG stores metadata differently and most marketplaces re-encode PNGs anyway; export or convert to JPEG first, then tag as the last step before upload.
