Add Text Watermark to Video
Place visible text marks for ownership, draft status, department labels, internal review, or release context.
Place Visible Ownership Marks Before You Publish or Share
Adding a watermark to video helps viewers recognize the source, keeps client previews tied to your brand, and makes training or demo clips easier to identify after they are shared. It is useful for tutorials, social videos, product demos, internal recordings, event clips, and draft reviews.
GiliSoft Video Editor lets Windows users add text or logo-style watermarks while staying close to common editing tasks such as trimming, joining, cropping, subtitles, music, and export. Use it when the goal is adding a visible mark to your own video before delivery.
If the job is removing an old or unwanted watermark from authorized footage, see ClipMark. If you need broader timeline editing, see Video Editor Pro.
