The Cost of One Mistake
$1,250
One AP enforcement action.
$108
PhotoCheckWP per year
AP, Getty, and Reuters run active enforcement programs. A single unlicensed image can trigger a demand of $750 to $2,500 or more, arriving weeks after publication with no warning and no negotiating room. PhotoCheckWP puts a check between your editorial team and that bill.
How It Works
1. Upload as normal. Your editor adds an image to the media library the same way they always have. Nothing changes in their workflow.
2. PhotoCheckWP checks it. Every image is automatically run against Google’s image index. The check takes a few seconds.
3. Matches are flagged. If potential copyright matches are found, a modal appears showing the sources. The editor must acknowledge before the image can be inserted.
