The same fan leaks again
A fan who leaks one drop and gets away with it has no reason to stop. The next drop goes out to them too, and ends up in the same places.
Leak attribution for paid content
Takedowns clean up after a leak. Trace shows whose copy it was. Every buyer gets their own invisibly marked copy, and when one turns up online, Trace shows which account it was delivered to.
The free leak scan takes about two minutes and needs no account. Already found a leak? See how to find whose copy it was.

A fan who leaks one drop and gets away with it has no reason to stop. The next drop goes out to them too, and ends up in the same places.
When your last few drops are free a day after release, fans who would have paid learn to wait. A $25 drop bought by 120 fans loses about $600 when one in five grabs the free copy instead.
You get the link taken down and it’s back a week later somewhere else. Removal can’t tell you whose copy it was, so the source keeps getting new drops.
How it works
Each buyer’s copy of your video, photo, voice note or mass message carries its own invisible mark. Fans see the same file.
On a leak site, a Telegram channel or a tube re-upload. Upload the file into Trace, or paste a public link.
When several checks agree, Trace shows which account that copy was delivered to, with an evidence pack. When they don’t, it says so and names no one.

Logo overlay
Put your own logo on every copy you send: a corner, the centre or a tile across the picture. Fans see your brand. If someone crops it off or paints over it, the invisible marks are still in the picture, so the copy still points to the account it was delivered to.
Protect content
One step at a time, like posting with a checklist. Each media type goes through its own steps.
A photo, a video, a voice note, or a live stream (early access). Trace shows the formats and lengths each one takes.
A one-to-one sale, a mass message by fan list, a private Vault link, a wall drop or mark on unlock. Each option says what a match will show: one account, or one list.
The invisible marks are always on. Add your logo, the coded ring and the tag, check the preview, then create. Trace makes the copies; you send them.
What’s included
Every plan includes all eight. Start with a 14-day trial and see a traced copy for yourself.
An invisible mark in each buyer’s copy of your videos, photos and voice notes. Nothing changes for the fan.
A mass message goes out as a handful of marked versions, one per fan list, so a leak points to its list.
Upload a leaked copy (or paste a link) whenever something turns up. Trace shows which account that copy was delivered to.
When a match clears: an evidence pack, a DMCA notice draft you send, and a platform letter.
The free exposure scan, then a weekly check for new copies of your content on leak sites.
Make an API key in Settings and connect your own tools. API copies count the same as app copies. API guide
One-time unlock links per buyer, so each delivery is recorded before a leak can exist.
If a marked file leaks within our tested conditions and Trace can’t match it, that month is refunded. Terms
Where Trace fits
Takedown services remove the link. Platforms review the account. Lawyers need evidence. Trace gives each of them the same thing: which account the leaked copy was delivered to, and the evidence behind it.
Why Trace
FAQ
Trace puts an invisible mark in each buyer’s copy of your paid content. When a copy turns up online, Trace shows which account that copy was delivered to, with an evidence pack. It is not DRM, and it does not remove content.
No. Trace doesn’t remove links or file takedowns for you. It works alongside your takedown service: they remove the copies, Trace shows whose copy it was. After a match you can export a DMCA notice draft you send yourself.
It reports the result as inconclusive and shows no account. A no-match is not proof that a buyer didn’t share the file; it means the evidence wasn’t strong enough. Several checks have to agree before Trace shows an account.
Videos, photos, voice notes and mass messages. A mass message goes out as a handful of marked versions, one per fan list, so a leaked copy points to the version and the list it went to.
No. Trace never asks for your OnlyFans or Fansly password and never logs in, posts or messages inside those platforms. You mark files in Trace and upload them yourself. Read the policy.
