Member provenance desk

Provider signals, checked with their limits attached.

A watermark can support provenance. It cannot prove authorship, ownership, accuracy, or that a person did not contribute. SundAI Times keeps those distinctions inside the result, not buried in the small print.

Coverage

What can be checked today

Coverage varies by provider, format, model, region, and creation date. A missing signal is not proof that content was made by a person.

Member report

A conclusion you can defend.

Every completed check will preserve the provider, signal type, validation state, file scope, timestamp, and limitations together.

01

Signal

Detected, not detected, invalid, or unavailable.

02

Scope

The exact file, format, provider, and applicable check.

03

Limits

What the result cannot establish and what may erase a signal.

Reading a result

Three rules before you act

Detected means evidence, not authorship

A detected signal indicates that a supported provider likely generated or processed the content. It does not identify the user or measure the human contribution.

Not detected does not mean human-made

Editing, screenshots, conversion, old models, unsupported formats, or another provider can all produce an absent result.

Short text and code are weak samples

Text watermarks need enough flexible word choices. Short, factual, translated, paraphrased, or code-heavy material may be inconclusive.

Method

No generic AI score dressed up as a watermark.

The desk only calls a result a watermark check when it uses a provider-authorised signal or a signed provenance standard. Statistical writing classifiers are a different category and are not substituted here.
