Vision runs a series of authenticity checks on every image and returns a result for each test. Use this guide to understand what each test checks for and how to interpret its outcome.
📘
| Result | Meaning |
|---|
pass | The check completed successfully. |
warn | Something needs manual review. Not every test returns a warning state. |
fail | A condition was found that is inconsistent with authenticity, expected content, or expected capture conditions. |
Truepics (captured through Truepic's trusted capture flow) support the broadest set of checks because they include cryptographically signed metadata. Non-Truepics support a smaller subset.
| Test | Truepics | Non-Truepics |
|---|
| Blurriness | ✅ | — |
| Date/Time | ✅ | — |
| Distance from Address | ✅ | — |
| Capture Integrity | ✅ | — |
| Data Transfer | ✅ | — |
| Device Integrity | ✅ | — |
| Geolocation | ✅ | — |
| Picture of Screen | ✅ | ✅ |
| Reverse Image Search | ✅ | ✅ |
| Object Detection | ✅ (optional) | ✅ (optional) |
| Odometer Detection | ✅ (optional) | ✅ (optional) |
| Text Detection | ✅ (optional) | ✅ (optional) |
| VIN Detection | ✅ (optional) | ✅ (optional) |
These checks require the full trusted capture chain and are not available for non-Truepics.
| Test | What it checks | Pass | Warn | Fail | API attribute |
|---|
| Blurriness | Image is sharp enough to analyze. | — | Photo is too blurry to analyze. | — | — |
| Date/Time | Device time matches server time and was not modified. | Within 5 minutes of server time. | — | More than 5 minutes apart, or metadata may have been tampered with. | time_result |
| Device time is inaccurate | Customer did not manually change the device clock. | Device time matches actual time. | — | Device time differs from actual time. | time_result |
| Test | What it checks | Pass | Warn | Fail | API attribute |
|---|
| Distance from Address | Image was captured within the expected distance of a given address. | Within the configured threshold. | — | Outside the configured threshold. | distance_from_customer_address_exceeds_threshold |
| Geolocation | GPS data matches the true capture location and has not been spoofed. | Accurate; no tampering detected. | — | Inconsistencies suggest location data was tampered with. | geolocation_result |
| Test | What it checks | Pass | Warn | Fail | API attribute |
|---|
| Capture Integrity | Cryptographically signed details are verified and unmodified. | Securely signed; tamper-proof. | One or more details could not be verified. Photo is usable but not tamper-proof. | — | capture_integrity_result |
| Data Transfer | Image was not tampered with during upload. | Transferred without modification. | — | Compromised images are rejected outright. | data_result |
| Device Integrity | Device has not been jailbroken, rooted, or otherwise modified. | Device is unmodified. | — | OS has been modified, allowing unauthorized software. Image may have been manipulated. | jailbreak_result |
These checks run on both Truepics and non-Truepics, though some result states differ between the two.
Detects whether the image was re-captured from a photo displayed on a screen or printed on paper.
| Pass | Warn | Fail | API attribute |
|---|
| No screen detected. | A screen was found — review to determine if it is benign or a re-captured photo. | A screen was found — likely a re-captured photo. | pop_result |
Checks for visually similar images on the internet, and for duplicate submissions.
| Pass | Warn | Fail | API attribute |
|---|
| No similar images found online. | — | Possible internet matches found. | ris_result |
Checks whether the expected object is present in the image.
| Pass | Warn | API attribute |
|---|
| Expected object detected. | None of the selected objects were detected. | object_detection_result |
Checks whether the odometer reading falls within the expected min/max range.
| Pass | Warn | Fail | API attribute |
|---|
| Odometer found and within range. | Odometer found but outside range. | Odometer not found. | content_analysis_result (type: ODOMETER) |
| Pass | Warn | Fail | API attribute |
|---|
| VIN matches expected value. | VIN does not match. | VIN not detected. | content_analysis_result (type: VIN) |
| Pass | Warn | API attribute |
|---|
| Expected text found. | Expected text not found. | content_analysis_result (text-based matching workflows) |
Every inspection response contains results at two levels:
- Inspection-level summary — check
result.verification_result for the overall outcome, and result.alert to see which photos triggered warnings or failures.
- Per-photo results — each object in
result.photos contains test-specific fields:
| Field | Test |
|---|
time_result | Date/Time, Device time accuracy |
capture_integrity_result | Capture Integrity |
data_result | Data Transfer |
jailbreak_result | Device Integrity |
geolocation_result | Geolocation |
pop_result | Picture of Screen |
ris_result | Reverse Image Search |
object_detection_result | Object Detection |
content_analysis_result | Odometer, VIN, Text Detection |
