Link: Ring can verify videos now, but that might not help you with most AI fakes

Ring has introduced a new feature called Ring Verify designed to confirm the authenticity of videos. This tool ensures that videos from Ring haven’t been edited or modified in any way.

When a video passes the Ring Verify test, it means it retains a "digital security seal" and hasn't been altered since its download from Ring's cloud. If a video is edited in any way, even minor changes like adjusting the brightness, it will fail the verification.

Verified videos display their status when checked through the Ring Verify website, where users can upload videos directly from their devices. Ring’s verification technology adheres to the C2PA standards.

However, videos from before December 2025 or that have been edited post-download cannot be verified. Also, Ring cannot verify content that has been compressed or altered when uploaded to platforms like TikTok.

If the verification fails, Ring cannot specify how the video was modified. For those seeking the original version of a video, it's recommended to ask for a direct link from the sharer via the Ring app.
