Confileo's File X-Ray tool reveals the hidden metadata stored inside a file — free, in your browser, with your files deleted automatically the moment you are done.

What metadata can it find?
Author, software, dates, device details and other hidden fields embedded in the file.
Why does metadata matter?
Files can silently leak who, when and how they were created — important to check before sharing.
How do I see the hidden data inside a file before sharing it?
Upload the file and the tool shows all the metadata embedded in it, so you know what it carries before sending it.
Does it reveal who created the file and with what software?
Yes. It shows the author name, the software used, and the creation and modification dates if embedded.
Does it reveal where a photo was taken (GPS)?
If the photo carries embedded location data, it appears here — an important reason to check images before posting.
Is the file processed privately?
Yes. The file is inspected in your session only to show its data, then deleted, and never sent anywhere.
