Add text or image overlay to your video
Watermarking helps protect content and reinforce branding. With VideoComposer, you can overlay a logo image or a text watermark on a video and control the placement and opacity. The output is a clean MP4 ready for distribution.
The overlay tool supports either an image or text at a time. Set x and y coordinates to position the watermark and adjust opacity to keep the content readable. This workflow is designed for fast and repeatable branding across clips.
If you need to watermark many files, the API makes it easy to automate. Submit jobs programmatically and retrieve outputs when they finish without manual uploads.
Watermarks are also useful for ownership and compliance when sharing pre-release content. A consistent logo in the corner makes it clear where the video came from without blocking the main action.
The overlay tool re-encodes the video to apply the watermark. Use a high-resolution logo and test placement on a short clip before processing a large batch.
When your add watermark to video job completes, you will receive a downloadable output URL. You can save the result locally, share it with a teammate, or feed it into another tool such as the trimmer or converter. For repeatable workflows, use the API to store outputs in your own system and automate the next step.
Transparent PNG logos usually produce the cleanest overlays. JPEG logos can introduce boxes or backgrounds that distract from the content.
Text watermarks should be short and high-contrast. Test on a short clip to ensure readability across different video scenes.
Consider where the watermark sits across different aspect ratios. Keeping it inside safe margins helps avoid clipping on various players.
Different players can crop or letterbox video. Preview a short clip to confirm the watermark stays visible across common resolutions and aspect ratios.
If you need the watermark to appear only for part of a video, you can split the clip into segments, apply overlays to the segments that need branding, and merge the results into one file.
Yes. Provide a direct URL to an image and set the position and opacity.
Yes. Enter the text, choose a font size, and set position and opacity.
Yes. You can set x and y coordinates and adjust opacity from 0.0 to 1.0.
Watermarking re-encodes the output to apply the overlay. Quality remains high for typical settings.
The browser tool processes one video per job. Use the API to automate multiple watermark jobs.
No. VideoComposer does not add any extra watermark beyond what you specify.
Yes. The API supports the same overlay parameters for automated workflows.
Use the overlay endpoint to apply logos or text programmatically. This is ideal for content pipelines, user-generated content moderation, or branded exports.
Submit jobs with image or text parameters and retrieve output URLs when processing completes.
Apply a consistent watermark across multiple videos by reusing the same overlay settings in your API requests.
