Free logo and watermark remover
Paint over a logo, date stamp or line of text and it is rebuilt from the rest of your picture. Free, no signup, and the photo never leaves this computer.
How to remove a logo from a photo
- Drop the picture onto the tool, or paste it. Try the sample to see a finished result first: it arrives with the logo already marked.
- Mark the logo. Paint over it with the brush, drag a box round it, or use Pick by colour and click it — tick "every matching pixel" for text, so each letter is caught.
- Choose the fill. Copy texture for grass, fabric, wood and anything with a pattern; Smooth blend for sky, walls and plain backdrops.
- Remove, then compare. Switch between Result and Original. If a trace is left, mark it and run again.
- Save as PNG or JPG at the size you dropped in (up to 4,096 pixels on the long side).
The step-by-step with every trap in it is in how to remove a logo or date stamp from your own photo, and how this compares with Photoshop, Canva and the upload-to-a-server sites is in the best logo and watermark removers, compared.
Why it runs in your browser
Nearly every watermark remover online uploads your picture to a server that runs an AI model, which is why they come with credits, daily limits and sign-ups: every picture costs them money. This one copies patches from your own picture, the approach Photoshop's Content-Aware Fill was built on, and it is fast enough to run on the page. That costs us nothing per picture, so there is no counter.
The trade-off is honest: a trained model can sometimes invent a plausible hand or window under a big logo. Patch filling cannot, and does not pretend to. For the everyday jobs — a logo over grass, a date stamp on sky, text on a backdrop — it is the same idea the desktop editors use.
For pictures you have the right to edit
Your own photos with an old logo or a camera date on them, a product shot you licensed with the supplier's stamp, a scan of a family print with a studio mark on it. Removing a watermark to use somebody else's work is not what this is for, and in many countries removing ownership information is unlawful on its own.
Questions
What does it remove well?
A mark sitting on something the rest of the picture has more of: a shop logo over grass, sky, fabric, wood, a wall or a studio backdrop; a camera date stamp; a line of text in a corner; a sticker price on a product shot. The fill is copied from the picture itself, so the more of that surface there is around the mark, the better the result.
What will it not do?
Three things, and it is better to know before you start. It cannot remove a watermark tiled across the whole picture — there is nothing clean left to copy from, so it refuses when the marked area passes 40% of the image. It cannot invent what was underneath — a face, a hand or lettering hidden by a logo has to be guessed, and a guess from nearby texture will look wrong. And a faint, semi-transparent mark over a busy photo often needs two passes.
Is it AI?
No trained model is involved. It uses patch-based inpainting, the method behind Photoshop's original Content-Aware Fill: for each small square touching the mark, it finds the most similar square elsewhere in your picture and copies from it, working from a blurry version up to full detail. That is why it runs in your browser in about a second, and why it is good at texture and weaker at objects.
Can I remove a watermark from a stock photo or someone else's picture?
Not with our blessing. A watermark is how a photographer or agency marks work they own. In the United States, removing copyright management information without the owner's permission is its own offence under 17 U.S.C. § 1202, separate from copying the picture. If you want the picture, license it; the licensed file comes without the watermark anyway.
Why is there a faint ghost where the logo was?
Most logos have a soft glow, shadow or anti-aliased edge that reaches a pixel or two beyond what you can see. Raise Widen the mark by two or three, mark the ghost and run it again. Each run works on the result of the last one, and Undo steps back.
Can I do a whole folder at once?
With Pro: drop every picture, mark the logo on the first, and the zip applies the same marks to each image, scaled to its size. It suits a batch of product photos with your old logo in the same corner. One picture at a time is free and unlimited.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The picture is decoded by your browser and rebuilt by code running on this page. Open the Network tab in your browser's developer tools while you use it: nothing leaves this computer.
