Inspect a Veo thumbnail or frame export as a still image.
Clean an actual videoClean a HEIC still
Supported stored metadata through image re-encoding.
A finished file. A reviewed copy.
Prepare the exact asset you intend to use.
Choose the Veo file
Save a supported still image of the frame you intend to use. Keep the original video outside this image flow.
Review what changes
Read the supported findings before cleaning. A full clean removes supported camera, location, editing and provenance records. Use GPS-only cleaning when you need to retain other camera settings.
Inspect the downloaded copy
Review frame clarity and crop; metadata cleaning does not remove an invisible pixel watermark.
Know the output before you start.
This workspace accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP still images. Up to 30 files, 15 MB each, and no more than 50 megapixels. Animated PNG and WebP are rejected.
JPG, PNG, and WebP stay in the same format. The copy is re-encoded, so compression and color can change. A HEIC still uses the separate HEIC cleaner. A video uses the video cleaner. This workspace does not extract frames from a video.
- JPG, PNG, WebP
- New copy in the same image format
- HEIC / HEIF
- Use the HEIC cleaner
- MP4 / MOV
- Use the separate video workspace

Answers for this export workflow.
Which Veo file should I choose?
Save a supported still image of the frame you intend to use. Keep the original video outside this image flow.
What should I check after preparing my Veo image?
Review frame clarity and crop; metadata cleaning does not remove an invisible pixel watermark.
Does this edit my original Veo project?
No. Keep the project, original download and attribution records separately. This workspace creates a new raster image; it does not edit layered, vector or video projects.
Does a clean metadata report prove an image is not AI-generated?
No. Metadata can be absent, edited or forged. Cleaning stored fields does not remove invisible watermarks, erase visible text or logos, establish authenticity, or guarantee how a platform labels an upload.
