Open Research Platform

Build the World's Largest Crowdsourced DeepTrace

DeepTrace is a collaborative platform for collecting, annotating, and reviewing deepfake media. Join researchers worldwide to advance deepfake detection through high-quality, peer-reviewed data.

The Challenge

Deepfake Detection Needs Better Data

Current detection models are limited by small, narrow datasets that lack detailed annotations. Without large-scale, well-annotated data covering the full range of deepfake techniques, detection tools struggle to keep pace.

How It Works

Three Steps to Better Data

Submit Deepfake Media

Upload images, videos, or audio with context about the source and deepfake technique used.

Annotate Submissions

Classify the deepfake type, rate quality, and flag notable characteristics of submitted media.

Peer Review Annotations

Validate annotation accuracy through consensus-based review to ensure data quality.
