Add a logo or text watermark to any video - privately in your browser
Stamp a logo, URL, channel name or copyright line on any video. Pick any corner or center, tune the opacity and size, or tile the watermark across every frame for anti-piracy protection. All processing happens in your browser with nothing uploaded to a server.

Drop a video file onto the page or click Select Video. MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM and other common formats are supported. A preview of the video loads immediately.
Pick Text to type a name, URL or copyright line and choose a color, or pick Image to upload a PNG, JPEG, WebP or SVG logo. Transparent PNGs composite cleanly on top of the video.
Select one of nine positions from the grid - corners, edges, or center. Adjust size, opacity and edge margin with the sliders, or switch on Tile across video to repeat the watermark on a grid for anti-piracy protection. The preview updates live.
Click Apply Watermark. The watermark is baked into every frame of the video. When processing completes, download the watermarked file.
A text watermark is quickest - type the text you want and pick a color. It is ideal for names, URLs, channel handles and copyright lines. An image watermark lets you use a transparent PNG logo, a signature, or any brand mark. Both are composited at the resolution of your source video, so the watermark stays sharp at any size. The output is re-encoded at high quality with the watermark baked into every frame, so it cannot be removed by re-encoding or trimming.
Drop or select your video file on this page. Choose Text to type a watermark or Image to upload a logo. Pick a position, adjust opacity and size, then click Apply Watermark. The watermarked file downloads when processing finishes. Everything runs in your browser - no upload, no signup, no cost.
Yes. PNG, WebP and SVG images preserve transparency so your logo composites cleanly over the video. JPEG images are also supported but will show as a solid rectangle since JPEG has no alpha channel.
The position grid offers nine presets: the four corners, the four edge midpoints, and the center. Use the edge margin slider to control how far from the edges the watermark sits. Switch on Tile across video to repeat the watermark on a grid over the whole frame.
No. VidShift never adds its own watermark. Only the watermark you choose is added - and only if you add one. If you leave the text empty and pick no image, nothing changes.
Yes. The watermark is rendered into every frame when the video is re-encoded, so it cannot be removed by changing containers, trimming, or re-encoding again. This is the intended behaviour for branding and copyright protection.
VidShift supports all common video formats as input: MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, OGV, M4V, and MPEG-TS. You can export the watermarked result as MP4, WebM or MKV.
Watermarking requires re-encoding the video so that the watermark is baked into every frame. VidShift re-encodes at high quality, so any difference from the original is typically not noticeable. If you want a smaller file afterwards, you can compress the video.
No. Your files never leave your device. VidShift has no backend servers that receive or store your media. All processing runs locally in your browser using WebAssembly, ensuring complete privacy. The tool even works offline after your first visit.
