Add a Watermark to Any Video, Free
A video watermark keeps your name on your footage wherever it's reposted. Watermark Studio adds a visible logo or text watermark to your clips right in the browser — no upload, no account, no cost.
How to Add a Watermark to a Video for Free
Choose the video you want to protect, type your text or upload a transparent logo, and drag the watermark to the corner or center of the frame. Set the size and opacity, or tile the mark across the whole video so it can't be cropped out. Hit export and the watermark is burned into every frame while the clip plays, then downloaded as a new video file with the original audio intact.
Everything runs in your browser — your video is never uploaded, so even large or private clips stay on your device. Because the watermark is rendered frame by frame in real time, a one-minute clip takes about a minute to export. Keep the tab open while it records.
Where to Put a Video Watermark
For social platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, a small logo or @handle in a corner is the standard — visible enough to carry attribution, subtle enough not to distract. For footage you're sending to clients or licensing, a larger centered or tiled watermark makes the preview usable while making unlicensed use obvious. A tiled, semi-transparent watermark is the hardest to remove and the safest choice for public previews.
Position matters: avoid the very bottom (where platform UI and captions sit) and keep the mark clear of fast-moving action so it stays readable. You can drag the watermark to the exact spot and preview it before exporting.
Browser Support & Output Format
Video watermarking uses your browser's built-in canvas capture and recorder, which work best in the latest Chrome or Firefox on desktop. Exported clips are saved as WebM, a widely supported, high-quality web video format that plays in browsers and most modern players and uploads directly to YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. If your browser can't export video, the tool will tell you and you can switch to Chrome or Firefox.
