Bloggers and content creators
Add a URL or copyright notice to images before publishing. When images spread on social media your brand travels with them.
Designers sharing previews
Send client mockups with a PROOF or DRAFT watermark so they cannot be used before final payment.
Stock photographers
Preview images with a tiled watermark make it impossible to use the image without licensing. Full-coverage tile is the industry standard.

Add CONFIDENTIAL watermarks to sensitive internal images and screenshots before sharing.
No uploads, 100% private
Your images never leave your device. All processing uses the browser Canvas API. Competitors upload your photos to their servers.

The repeating grid watermark is the strongest protection option. Used by stock photo agencies worldwide.

A photographer shares a portfolio image on Instagram without a watermark. Two weeks later, someone finds it through a reverse image search and it's showing up on a stock site they didn't submit to, being sold for $15 a download. This happens constantly. It's not paranoia, it's a documented pattern in online photography communities. A watermark isn't a guarantee of protection, but it's the difference between an image that gets scraped and reused and one that at minimum carries your name wherever it ends up.
The other side of this is that a poorly placed or overly aggressive watermark can make your work look amateur and actually hurt the impression you're trying to make. Getting the balance right matters. Here's what actually works.
Text watermarks are faster to set up and work well for copyright notices, website URLs, and simple brand names. They're also more readable at small sizes than logos. If you're a solo creator or photographer and your name is your brand, a text watermark with your name or website is the right choice for portfolio sharing.
Logo watermarks are better when you have a visual brand identity you want to reinforce. A small transparent PNG logo in the bottom corner of a product photo does more brand work than text because it's recognized faster. The key is using a PNG with a transparent background. A logo on a white rectangle looks careless. The same logo floating cleanly over the image looks professional.
Most people set opacity too high or too low. At 80 to 100% opacity, a watermark overpowers the image and makes it look like you don't trust the viewer. At 15 to 20%, it's invisible at a glance and provides almost no protection. The professional standard is 40 to 60%. Visible enough to be read without trying. Light enough that the image still does its job.
For proof-of-concept previews sent to clients before final payment, you can push to 70 to 80% and tile it across the whole image. That's not about aesthetics. It's about making the image useless without the finished version.
A corner watermark is easy to crop out. Anyone with basic editing skills can remove a bottom-right watermark in thirty seconds. It's still worth using for casual sharing because it deters lazy theft, but it won't stop someone determined. A tiled watermark that repeats across the entire image is much harder to remove cleanly. To remove it properly, someone would need to individually retouch each instance, which is rarely worth the effort when there are unwatermarked alternatives available.
For stock photography previews, client mockups, and any image you genuinely don't want used without payment, use tile mode. For portfolio sharing where you want the image to be seen and appreciated, a corner watermark is the right balance.

Yes. Upload up to 20 images at once. Configure your watermark settings once, click Apply to all images, and download them individually or as a ZIP archive. All images are processed sequentially in your browser.
40 to 60% opacity is the professional standard for visible but unobtrusive watermarks. This makes the watermark clearly visible while still letting the underlying image show through naturally.
Tile mode repeats your watermark in a grid pattern across the entire image. This provides the strongest protection because it is much harder to remove than a single-corner watermark. It is recommended for stock photography and high-value content.
No. All watermark processing happens locally in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your images never leave your device. You can disconnect from the internet after loading the page and the tool will still work.
PNG with a transparent background works best for logo watermarks. Transparency means only your logo appears on the image, without a white or colored rectangle behind it. Most logo design tools and brand kits provide transparent PNG versions.
Yes. Use the rotation slider and set it to 45 or -45 degrees for a diagonal watermark. Diagonal watermarks are popular because they are harder to crop out than corner watermarks.
