Functional prototype · Evidence confidence: High

Cipher Lens

A bulk forensic image decoder that extracts metadata, checks for steganography and encoded text, and optionally asks AI to review unusual visual details.

01 · Purpose

The problem

Suspicious images can hide metadata or encoded material that is hard to inspect manually.

02 · Experience

How it works

Users drop images, local analysis checks EXIF/stego/OCR/cipher signals with limited concurrency, and an optional AI vision/cross-review layer adds interpretation.

This archive records what the available project evidence says. It does not infer legal registration, patent grant, trademark ownership or regulatory status where that has not been verified.

07 · Assessment

Strengths and limitations

Strengths

  • Separates local analysis from optional AI
  • Reality-check messaging

Limitations / risks

  • False positives/interpretation risk

08 · Evidence

What this record is grounded in

  • GitHub repository: simonmowatt1-sudo/whisper-decode
  • Repository README / project brief where available
  • Implemented home route where available
  • Published Lovable URL recorded from repository metadata

A published URL means the project metadata records a deployment address. It is not represented as runtime-tested unless a separate verification pass confirms that deployment.

Archive principle

Unknowns stay unknown until evidence changes them.
