The deepfake detection market, mapped by Gartner®

Download the report to see how Gartner frames the market, evaluates startup vendors, and why deepfake detection is becoming foundational to enterprise security.

Why this matters

Deepfake detection is no longer a niche capability. Gartner defines it as an emerging cybersecurity discipline covering fabricated, manipulated, AI-generated, or AI-manipulated multimedia, including images, audio, video, and live interactions.

For enterprise teams, that means trust now has to be protected in the same places business happens: live meetings, hiring workflows, executive communications, contact centers, and other high-stakes digital interactions.

What Gartner says about Market Shapers

Gartner describes Market Shapers as vendors characterized by scale, ecosystem readiness, and disruption. The report notes that these offerings include “multimodal ensemble models,” “deep forensic signals intelligence,” and continuous operational workflows.

That aligns with GetReal’s approach: not a single signal, not a one-time check, but continuous verification across the pixels and sound waves enterprises run on.
