About

Clarity is an AI cybersecurity startup that has developed a platform for detecting deepfakes and synthetic media created by generative AI. Its patent-pending technology detects AI manipulations in videos, images, and audio and authenticates media with encrypted watermarking. Clarity's AI DeepFake Firewall integrates into new and existing workflows, enabling organizations to verify sensitive media, prevent fraud, and filter manipulated content. The company works with news organizations, the Israeli government, and has partnered with Kaltura to verify footage from the October 7 terrorist attack on Israel. Clarity's technology helps organizations verify that people they recruit are who they claim to be, addressing a growing security challenge in the era of AI-generated identities.
