Identify the AI generator app that produced the content (SoulGen content on Signal)

Why this matters for SoulGen content on Signal

• SoulGen accepts uploaded reference photographs which can be used to generate explicit content of identifiable individuals. This is the primary NCII vector for the service.
• Signal's zero metadata model is privacy protective for legitimate users but provides no platform side enforcement option for NCII victims. Content can be forwarded to other Signal users without trace.
• SoulGen content distributed through Signal typically reaches between four and twelve additional platforms within 72 hours through reposts, mirrors, and cross platform redistribution.
• Source attribution to SoulGen is critical for identify source app because it establishes the AI generated nature of the content, which strengthens statutory claims under 47 USC 223a regardless of whether the depicted person ever existed in unaltered form.

How AI generator removal works

What to do, step by step

1. 01
   Preserve evidence before any other action Capture full page screenshots with the URL bar visible, save the highest resolution copy of the content available, and document the SoulGen fingerprint indicators including soulgen outputs display a distinct anime adjacent rendering style even in photorealistic mode, with characteristic eye highlighting and a smooth skin tone gradient that does not match natural photography. Highest resolution copy of the content available, ideally the original file before redistribution compression
2. 02
   Run a biometric scan to find every copy across platforms SoulGen content distributed on Signal rarely stays there. ScanErase indexes 2.4 billion face embeddings across 200 plus platforms and identifies every current hosting location in a single scan, including additional SoulGen variations.
3. 03
   Complete the source attribution documentation SoulGen outputs display a distinct anime adjacent rendering style even in photorealistic mode, with characteristic eye highlighting and a smooth skin tone gradient that does not match natural photography. Document the matching characteristics with side by side comparison samples and forensic notes. This documentation supports authentication under Federal Rules of Evidence 901.
4. 04
   Document the SoulGen source attribution SoulGen outputs display a distinct anime adjacent rendering style even in photorealistic mode, with characteristic eye highlighting and a smooth skin tone gradient that does not match natural photography. This attribution evidence is critical for the legal record and supports stronger statutory claims regardless of which specific action you pursue.
5. 05
   Coordinate with Signal platform removal Signal does not have content moderation tooling because of its end to end encryption and zero metadata architecture. Removal of content requires action against the sender directly.
6. 06
   File the complete evidence record for the legal track Federal Rules of Evidence 901 for authentication of digital evidence provides the foundational legal basis for this action. Document every notice sent, every platform response, and every confirmation in a single evidence file. ScanErase produces this Verified Removal Package automatically as your case progresses.

Legal context

• Federal Rules of Evidence 901 for authentication of digital evidence
• Source attribution as a foundational element of civil claims under state NCII statutes
• Signal cannot be compelled to remove content because it does not have access to it. The TAKE IT DOWN Act enforcement against Signal is therefore ineffective. The remedy is action against the sender under state NCII statutes.
• SoulGen attribution: Hong Kong operator jurisdiction makes direct civil action complex, but Apple App Store and Google Play Store policy violation reports have produced removal of the SoulGen mobile app in multiple regions.
