Don’t want to watch the video. Here’s the elevator pitch:
TinEye uses image identification technology. You give it an image to search for and TinEye shows you where and how that image appears all over the web - even if it has been altered. The technology behind TinEye is Idée’s advanced image identification algorithms that identify images without the use of any meta-data or watermarks. TinEye literally does for images what Google does for text.
