TextFake: leaderboard

TextFake (2026) asks whether a text-rich image, such as a screenshot, document or news page in one of 28 languages, is real or AI-generated; real images are paired with fakes from four text-rendering image generators and every image is re-encoded as JPEG. The board is overall accuracy in percent on the balanced 20,000-image set with one fixed zero-shot REAL or FAKE prompt; chance is 50 and higher is better.

Metric: Overall accuracy (%) over all 20,000 images at classifying text-rich images (screenshots, documents and news pages in 28 languages) as real or AI-generated; the balanced set pairs real images with fakes from four text-rendering image generators, every image JPEG-re-encoded; VLM APIs answer REAL or FAKE to one fixed zero-shot prompt; chance 50; higher is better.
