What is TurboLens?

TurboLens is a content detector tool. A REST JSON API that scores documents and images for local pixel manipulation (splicing, copy-move, retouching) and returns a verdict, tampered-pixel share, region coordinates, and heatmap. An early-access layer screens for AI-generated and AI-edited media.

TurboLens is a visual forensics API for teams that need to know whether an image has been manipulated before it influences a decision. The service analyzes pixel structure to find local tampering: splicing, copy-move edits, retouching, and altered fields on documents such as payslips, bank statements, passports, and identity cards. Each submission returns a real or forged verdict, the proportion of tampered pixels, coordinates for suspicious regions, and a heatmap that shows a human reviewer where an edit may sit. A second, separate layer screens for synthetic media, estimating whether generative AI created or altered the image and returning a three-state result with a probability score. The core design choice is that forgery detection and AI-image detection stay as two distinct signals rather than one blended score. Forgery detection is production ready; the synthetic-media layer is early access. Practically, this means an operations team can place one REST call immediately after upload and before OCR, extraction, or approval. Clean files continue down the existing pipeline automatically, while flagged images are rejected, escalated, or queued for manual review according to thresholds the organization sets itself. TurboLens also handles document intelligence after the authenticity check: classifying documents and pulling structured fields from invoices, receipts, passports, national IDs, contracts, tax forms, and customs paperwork, with an emphasis on Southeast Asian layouts and multilingual scripts. Vietnamese invoice, contract, and customs extraction are called out as named capabilities. The tool fits KYC and onboarding, lending underwriting, and insurance claims, where manipulated evidence is a known risk and review capacity is limited. It is a developer-facing product sold as an API, not a desktop app, so it suits engineering and risk teams building their own review tooling rather than analysts wanting a point-and-click interface. Compared with general OCR vendors, TurboLens leads with authenticity evidence; compared with pure deepfake detectors, it keeps the extracted data workflow in the same stack.

How do you use TurboLens?

  1. 1Review the two detection layers
    Understand what forgery detection covers (local edits to an existing image) versus synthetic-media screening (AI-generated or AI-edited content), since they return different outputs and sit in different stages of maturity.
  2. 2Test the forgery API with your own samples
    Open the sandbox and run altered and clean images from your own workflow through the endpoint to see how each is scored before committing to integration.
  3. 3Follow the integration process
    Walk through the documented steps for wiring the REST endpoint into your stack so the check runs immediately after upload and ahead of extraction.
  4. 4Place the call before OCR
    Send the document page or image to the API first, read the verdict, tampered proportion, and suspicious regions, then decide whether to continue to text extraction.
  5. 5Configure review routing
    Set your own thresholds and define what happens to flagged files (reject, escalate, or queue for human review) while clean submissions continue automatically.
  6. 6Add extraction for clean documents
    For files that pass screening, use the document intelligence capabilities to classify the document and pull structured fields for invoices, passports, contracts, or customs forms.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Returns concrete evidence: tampered-pixel proportion, suspicious-region coordinates, and a heatmap reviewers can inspectAI
  • Forgery detection and synthetic-media screening are reported separately, so each risk gets its own routing ruleAI
  • Plugs in as a single REST call before OCR and extraction, no rebuild of the downstream pipelineAI
  • Genuine submissions pass through automatically, which focuses manual review on flagged itemsAI
  • Named Southeast Asian OCR capabilities cover invoices, contracts, customs forms, passports, and national IDsAI

Cons

  • AI-generated and AI-edited detection is only early access, so synthetic-media screening is not a stable production dependencyAI
  • Pricing is not published on the homepage, which makes budgeting and vendor comparison difficult without a sales conversationAI
  • API-first with no stated UI, so non-technical reviewers depend entirely on what the engineering team builds around itAI
  • No accuracy benchmarks or error rates are disclosed, and heatmap evidence still requires trained human interpretationAI
  • Southeast Asian language coverage is the focus, and the homepage does not describe performance on other regionsAI

Features

Forgery detection returns a real or forged verdict, tampered-pixel proportion, suspicious-region coordinates, and a visual heatmap. An early-access synthetic-media layer adds a three-state result (AI-generated, needs review, likely human-made) plus an AI probability score. A single REST call sits before OCR, with configurable routing and batch-ready JSON responses. Document intelligence adds classification and field extraction for invoices, passports, contracts, and customs forms.
