Ring is able to verify videos at this time, but that may not assist you with the majority of AI forgeries.

Ring has introduced a new tool called Ring Verify that the company claims can “verify that Ring videos you receive haven’t been modified or altered.” However, due to the fact that Ring will not verify videos that have been changed in any way, it is likely that videos you encounter on TikTok that appear to be from security camera footage but are actually created with AI will not be verifiable.

All videos downloaded from Ring’s cloud now feature a “digital security seal,” according to Ring. To verify and check if a video is genuine, visit the Ring Verify website and choose a video from your device to upload. When Ring Verify indicates that a video is “verified,” it implies that “the video hasn’t been altered in any manner since it was downloaded from Ring.” (Ring Verify is developed using C2PA standards, as per spokesperson Kaleigh Bueckert-Orme.)

Any modification to the video, even something as minor as adjusting the brightness, will result in a failure of the test. Ring is unable to authenticate videos that “were downloaded prior to this feature’s release in December 2025, or videos that have been modified, cropped, filtered, or altered in any way after download (including even slightly trimming, adjusting brightness, or cropping)” or “videos uploaded to video-sharing platforms that compress the video.” Videos recorded with end-to-end encryption activated are also not verifiable.

If Ring is unable to authenticate the video, it also cannot specify what changes were made to it. “Ring’s verification solely attests that a video hasn’t been modified at all since downloading,” states Ring. For obtaining an original version of a video, Ring advises contacting the individual who shared it with you and requesting that they provide a link from the Ring app.
