# ReTrace AI — Image & Video Authenticity Analysis

**ReTrace AI** is an advanced media forensics system designed to analyze images and videos for authenticity. It detects AI-generated content, deepfakes, manipulations, NSFW content, watermarks, metadata inconsistencies, and more.

Built with a hybrid system combining custom ML models, **FastAPI**, **Node.js**, and external **AI APIs**, ReTrace AI delivers highly accurate authenticity reports.

## 🚀 Key Features

### ✅ Phase 1 — Safety Screening
* **NSFW Content Detection:** Identifies explicit content immediately.
* **Harm/Violence Detection:** Flags violent or harmful imagery.
* **Safe vs. Unsafe Classification:** Automatic blocking of unsafe media.

### ✅ Phase 2 — Authenticity Analysis
* **AI-Generated vs. Real:** Detects synthetic media.
* **Deepfake Identification:** Analyzing facial inconsistencies.
* **Manipulation Detection:** Identifies editing, retouching, and filters.
* **Watermark Tracing:** Detects hidden watermarks and source tracing.
* **Metadata Extraction:** Full analysis of EXIF, device info, software used, and GPS data.
* **Scoring:** Provides an overall authenticity probability score.

### ✅ Phase 3 — Enhanced External API Intelligence
Powered by industry-grade APIs, results are aggregated for maximum accuracy:
* **Google Vision API**
* **Hive AI** (Deepfake + AI-generated detection)
* **SightEngine** (NSFW & content safety)

## 🧠 Architecture & Components

### Custom ML Engine (FastAPI + PyTorch)
* Runs custom **CNN / ResNet50-based models**.
* Provides authenticity probability scores.
* **Grad-CAM Visualization** (Optional heatmap of manipulated areas).
* Video frame extraction & sequential analysis.
* Fully container-ready ML microservice.

### 🖥️ Frontend (React.js)
* JWT-based Login/Signup with **Google reCAPTCHA**.
* Drag & drop file upload with real-time progress.
* **NSFW Gatekeeper:** Blocks content before full analysis if unsafe.
* Visual Result UI with smooth animations (**Framer Motion**).
* Upload history & user profile management.

### 🔧 Backend (Node.js + Express)
* Secure file uploads via **Multer**.
* **MongoDB** integration for user data and analysis logs.
* Centralized result aggregation (ML Server + External APIs).
* Email verification via **Nodemailer**.
