How do I remove a watermark from a video?

Upload a clip up to one minute, drag a box over the watermark — making the box a little larger than the mark on every side — and hit Remove watermark. The AI rebuilds the picture behind the mark frame by frame and gives you a clean MP4 to download.

Why does the box need to be bigger than the watermark?

The eraser reconstructs everything inside your box by sampling the pixels around it. If the box edge touches the watermark's edge, the sampler has no clean pixels at the border — and a tight box very often returns the video with the mark still in place. Draw the box 30–50% larger than the mark on every side; this is the most common fix when a result comes back unchanged or smudged.

Why is there a one-minute limit?

Watermark erasing inspects and repaints every frame, which runs at roughly four minutes of processing per ten seconds of footage. A 60-second clip already takes ~25 minutes; anything longer would feel broken. Trim to the section you need — clips under 30 seconds give the best experience.

How long does it take?

Plan on about four minutes of processing per ten seconds of video: a 10s clip takes ~4 minutes, a 30s clip ~12 minutes, a 60s clip ~25 minutes. The page shows live status while it runs — keep the tab open.

The watermark only appears for a few seconds — do I have to process the whole clip?

You have two options. Set the optional time window in the tool and only those seconds are erased — everything outside the window passes through untouched. Or, cheaper still, trim the clip to just those seconds before uploading: the cost is charged on the full length of whatever you upload, so a trimmed clip costs less and finishes sooner.

What if the watermark moves around?

Draw one box per position it occupies — the tool accepts multiple regions. If it genuinely drifts across the whole frame continuously, coverage gets impractical; that footage is a better fit for a full re-edit than for spot erasing.

Can it remove text watermarks too?

Yes — a burned-in username or caption-style mark inside your box is erased the same way. If the text you want gone is subtitles along the bottom, the Remove Subtitles from Video tool is tuned for exactly that and needs no boxing; for text scattered anywhere in the frame, use Remove Text from Video.

How much does it cost?

It runs on credits, charged by the clip's length, with the exact cost shown before you confirm. If a job fails, the credits come back automatically — you only pay for results.

Will the audio or quality change?

The soundtrack, length, and timing pass through unchanged. The clip is re-encoded once at the end, at the source resolution (capped at 1080p).

Is it legal to remove a watermark?

On your own videos and footage you're licensed to edit, yes. Stripping a watermark from someone else's content can infringe copyright and breaks most platforms' terms, whatever the technical result looks like. The tool is built for cleaning your own material.

Remove Watermark from Video

Box the watermark, and the AI rebuilds the picture behind it frame by frame. Leave a margin around the mark, keep the clip short, and download a clean MP4 with the audio untouched.

Best on clips up to 30s (max 600s) — watermark removal is thorough but slow, about 4 minutes of processing per 10 seconds of video.

In short

To remove a watermark from a video: upload a clip under a minute, drag a box over the mark — noticeably larger than the mark itself, margin on every side — and run it. Processing is deliberate rather than instant (about four minutes per ten seconds of footage), which is why short, trimmed clips are the sweet spot. Charged by clip length, refunded automatically if a job fails.

Why watermarks need a box, not a button

Subtitles are predictable: white text, bottom strip, standard sizes. Watermarks are the opposite — a logo can be any shape, any colour, any opacity, parked in any corner or ghosted across the middle. Detectors tuned to find text miss them entirely or erase only the letters and leave the emblem, which is exactly the half-cleaned look you’re trying to avoid.

So this tool doesn’t guess. You tell it precisely where the watermark lives by drawing a box, and it spends its entire effort inside that box: tracking the mark across every frame, erasing it, and reconstructing the background that belongs underneath — while every pixel outside your box passes through untouched. That precision is also why the box needs a margin: the rebuild blends inward from the box’s edges, and it needs clean pixels there to work from.

The same logic applies to time. If the mark only exists for the first five seconds, upload just those five seconds — trim the clip in any editor before it comes here. Five seconds of careful reconstruction beats a minute of unnecessary work: faster, fewer credits, and the footage you didn’t upload can’t be altered by anything.

How to remove a watermark in 3 steps

1
Upload a short clip
Drag an MP4, MOV, or WebM onto the card. Watermark removal is the most compute-heavy job on the site — roughly four minutes of processing for every ten seconds of footage — so it accepts clips up to one minute, and works best under thirty seconds. Trim the video to the part you actually need before you upload; you'll wait less and pay less.
2
Box the watermark — with a margin
Hit “Select region” and drag a rectangle over the watermark. This step is required, and the single biggest factor in how clean the result looks is the margin: make the box 30–50% larger than the mark on every side. A box that hugs the logo's edge often comes back with the video unchanged, because the AI needs surrounding pixels to blend the reconstruction into. For a corner logo, run the box right out to the frame edges; if the watermark moves between two spots, draw a box over each.
3
Run it and let it work
Hit Remove watermark and keep the tab open. The AI tracks the mark inside your box across every frame, erases it, and reconstructs the background that belongs underneath — a deliberate, frame-by-frame job rather than an instant filter. The page shows live status the whole way, and the clean MP4 appears in place with a download button when it's done.

Three rules for a clean result

The box must be bigger than the mark

Not the same size — 30–50% bigger, with a clear margin all the way around. The eraser rebuilds every pixel inside your box using what surrounds it; when the box edge sits on the watermark's edge, there's no clean border to sample from, and the mark often survives untouched. For corner logos, the most reliable box runs all the way to the frame edges — there's nothing in that corner worth protecting anyway.

Trim to the marked seconds first

Every second you upload is a second the model inspects and repaints, whether the watermark is on screen or not. If the stamp only shows during the intro, cut the clip to that part before uploading — you'll wait a fraction of the time, pay a fraction of the credits, and the untouched remainder of your footage stays exactly as it was.

Short clips, always

This is a slow, thorough process: expect about four minutes of processing per ten seconds of video, so a 30-second clip runs roughly twelve minutes and a full minute pushes twenty-five. That's why the tool caps input at 60 seconds and recommends staying under 30. Cutting your video down first isn't a workaround — it's the intended way to use it.

What kinds of watermarks it handles

Watermark	Example	Tip
Corner logo watermarks	An app's stamp or a channel logo pinned to one corner	The classic case — run the box out to the frame edges
Semi-transparent overlays	A faint username or brand ghosted over the footage	Works best over moving backgrounds
Export stamps from editors	“Made with …” badges added by free video tools	Usually static — one box, whole clip
Timed intro / outro bugs	A promo bug that appears for the first few seconds	Trim the clip to those seconds before uploading
Repositioned marks	A stamp that jumps between two corners	Draw one box per position

When you’d reach for it

Clean your own exports

Free editors and templates often burn their badge into the render. When the stamped file is the only copy you have left, box the badge and recover a clean master.

Reuse licensed footage

Clips you've bought or been given sometimes arrive with the previous owner's bug still burned in. Erase it from the footage you're licensed to edit before it goes into your cut.

Prepare clips for a client

Strip your own draft watermark off the approved version instead of re-rendering the whole project from the timeline.

Fix a re-export you can't redo

The project file is gone, the export has a logo on it, and the deadline is today — box the logo, set the window, and move on.

What to know before you run it

It rebuilds, it doesn't reveal

The pixels behind the watermark are gone from the file; the AI predicts what belongs there from surrounding frames and areas. Over sky, walls, grass, or motion the fill is seamless. Over a face or dense text, it's an educated guess.

Boxing is manual on purpose

Logos come in every shape, opacity, and position — automatic detection tuned for subtitles misses them or half-erases them. Your box tells the eraser exactly where to work, which is why this tool requires one instead of guessing.

Only videos you have the right to edit

Removing a watermark from someone else's video can violate copyright and platform rules regardless of how good the result looks. Use this on your own content, or footage you're explicitly licensed to modify.
