Watermarks out.

A video split down the middle: the watermark on the left, the picture restored by Alphade on the right. Original Alphade

Restored, not blurred

Get back what was under the watermark.

Blurring a watermark leaves a smudge. Alphade works out how the watermark was blended into every frame and reverses it, so the picture underneath comes back clean.

How it works

Draw a box. Alphade does the rest.

  1. A box drawn around a watermark in Alphade.

    Mark the watermark

    Open a video and drag a box around the watermark.

  2. Alphade's analysis result: Removes Cleanly, solved from 8 frames.

    Analyze

    Alphade studies the whole video and tells you how well it can restore it.

  3. Export settings: codec and resolution.

    Export

    Save a clean copy in H.264 or HEVC, at full size or smaller.

Before you export

Check every frame.

Compare the original and the result side by side, step through frame by frame and zoom in to 4×. Only the boxed area changes; the rest of the picture and the sound stay exactly as they were.

Alphade in compare mode: a divider splits the box, with the watermark on the left half and the restored picture on the right.
