Proofig AI FAQs

• What types of image issues can Proofig AI detect?

  Proofig AI can detect alterations and manipulations (such as cloning, editing, deletion, and splicing), duplications and reuse (including scaling, rotation, flipping, and overlap), plagiarism by checking against PubMed's source database, and AI-generated microscopy images.
• How does Proofig AI ensure data privacy and security?

  Proofig AI is trained using material developed in-house and open-source content designated for commercial use. User-uploaded manuscripts are not used to train the models; they are solely analyzed for image integrity issues and to generate reports. All analyses are conducted on private, secure servers, ensuring manuscripts and reports remain confidential.
• What types of image sources can Proofig AI analyze?

  Proofig AI can auto-detect images from multiple sources, including various microscopies (confocal, light, fluorescence, electron), histology slides, pathology slides, Western blot bands, gel electrophoresis, flow cytometry (FC), fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), cell culture, in-vitro, and in-vivo images.
• Who can benefit from using Proofig AI?

  Proofig AI is beneficial for researchers, Principal Investigators (PIs), research institutions, publishers, and ethics committees looking to uphold research integrity and address scientific misconduct related to images.
• How quickly can Proofig AI analyze a scientific paper?

  Proofig AI's SaaS platform allows users to upload documents for analysis and can provide a full report on image integrity within minutes.
