How it works
Three steps, no account required to try it.
Load your file
Drop an image or video into the browser. It is read into memory locally — there is no upload request, which you can confirm in your network tab.
Review what was found
The engine walks the actual byte structure and lists every metadata segment it finds: C2PA manifests, EXIF blocks, XMP packets and text chunks.
Export a clean copy
Metadata segments are dropped and the remaining bytes are rewritten. Pixels are untouched, so there is no re-encode and no quality loss.
What this tool handles
Whole-clip watermark removal
Every frame is reconstructed and re-encoded, so the logo does not reappear halfway through the video.
Automatic detection
Samples frames across the timeline and finds the regions that never change — usually the logo, without you positioning anything.
Audio preserved
The original audio track is carried into the exported file rather than being dropped.
Trim before export
Set in and out points so you only re-encode the section you actually need.
Multi-region masks
Handle clips that carry more than one overlay by adding as many mask regions as you need.
Nothing uploaded
The re-encode runs on your own machine through the browser — no server ever receives the footage.
What gets removed
| Format | Removed | Preserved |
|---|---|---|
| PNG | tEXt, iTXt, zTXt, eXIf, caBX (C2PA/JUMBF), tIME | IHDR, IDAT, IEND, iCCP colour profile |
| JPEG | APP1–APP15 (EXIF, XMP, IPTC, C2PA) | SOI, APP0/JFIF, ICC profile, scan data |
| MP4 / WebM | Visible watermark across every frame, container metadata | Audio track, full clip length (real re-encode) |
Frequently asked
What is SynthID and can you remove it?
SynthID is Google’s watermarking technology. Part of it is conventional metadata, which this tool removes. But Google also embeds an imperceptible signal directly into the pixels, and that is a fundamentally different mechanism — this tool does not claim to defeat it, and you should distrust any tool that says it can.
Does Flow output differ from Veo output?
Flow renders through Veo, so the provenance data and watermarking behave the same way. Anything that works on a Veo clip works on a Flow clip.
How long does a video export take?
Roughly the length of the clip, because the re-encode runs in real time in your browser. A 30-second clip takes about 30 seconds. Keep the tab in the foreground while it runs.
Do my files get uploaded anywhere?
No. The scrubbing engine is JavaScript running in your own browser tab. There is no upload endpoint and no server-side processing queue, so your media never leaves your device. You can verify this by opening your browser network tab while you scan a file.
Is it legal to remove watermarks and content credentials?
It depends entirely on the media and your intent. Removing marks from work you own or are licensed to edit is normally fine. Stripping provenance data to pass AI-generated media off as authentic in journalism, elections, legal evidence or identity documents is prohibited by our terms and may be unlawful where you are. You are responsible for how you use the output.
Is there a free tier?
Yes. You can scan and inspect files without an account at all. A free account adds a daily cleaning quota, and paid plans raise that quota and unlock batch processing and API access.
Other tools
Generator-agnostic
Inspect any image byte by byte and remove its embedded provenance data — C2PA Content Credentials, EXIF records, XMP packets and PNG text chunks — whichever tool produced it.
Open toolGoogle Gemini · Nano Banana
Gemini image generation attaches provenance metadata and a SynthID mark to everything it produces.
Open toolRunway Gen-4 & Aleph
Runway exports carry a corner watermark plus embedded provenance metadata that identifies the clip as AI-generated.
Open toolOpenAI Sora · discontinued
Sora has been discontinued, but the clips people generated with it have not gone anywhere — and they still carry C2PA Content Credentials and a visible watermark.
Open toolMidjourney V7
Midjourney PNGs carry text chunks that can include your prompt, job identifiers and generator attribution.

Images generated by DALL-E 3 through ChatGPT carry C2PA Content Credentials identifying them as AI-generated.
Open toolYour files never leave your device
Every scrub runs in your browser tab. There is no upload endpoint, no queue, and no copy of your media on our side — by architecture, not policy.
