Common use cases include marking preview photos for clients before final delivery, adding your logo or brand name to social media images, protecting portfolio work from being copied, and adding copyright notices to stock photography.

People love how great our product works and how we're always there to help

[Rated 4.7](https://www.trustpilot.com/review/templated.io)

> "Business pressures now demand almost a 24x7 operation. The difference between choosing one SaaS product or another isn't just down to the technical capabilities of each, but down to their responsiveness when it doesn't quite work. In this case, an issue blocked us from being able to use the platform as intended. Within minutes of using the live chat, the issue was not only reproduced but correctly identified. Within the hour, the hot fix had been coded, tested and applied - unblocking the bottleneck and allowing us to carry on working. This is exceptional and the reason why I can't recommend this company enough - I'm so impressed and very grateful for their hard work. Keep it up!"

> "This is a clever idea, especially in concert with programmatic (AI-generated) SEO."
>
> Ryan Hoover, Creator of ProductHunt (17 January 2024)

> "We were looking for tools to help our users create and edit images with templates. We tried options like Canva, but Templated.io turned out to be the perfect choice for our product. It offers an easy API to render images, and its embed editor lets us provide our users with a full editing experience without having to create complex frontend components. It's a really great tool!"

> Harish (September 16, 2025)

> "We integrate Templated.io into our portal for custom flyer generation. The editor is amazing, and the Canva import tool is exactly what we were looking for. Massive shoutout to Pedro for the technical support. He responds incredibly fast and fixes issues in no time. Highly recommended!"
>
> Yuan Zhuang (June 9, 2026)

> Sven Rißmann, südheide.media (December 18, 2025)

It has most basic features and it is robust and "just works". The Make.com app really makes it super simple to incorporate into automation workflows. What sets templated.io apart the most is Pedro and his super fast and service minded, solutions oriented responses."

Image Watermark FAQs

Common questions about adding watermarks to images

### Is this tool free?

Yes, our image watermark tool is completely free with no limitations. Add watermarks to as many images as you need without signing up.

### Is my image secure?

Absolutely. All processing happens directly in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image is never uploaded to our servers or any third party.

### What image formats are supported?

You can upload JPG, PNG, and WebP images up to 50MB. The watermarked image can be downloaded as either JPG or PNG.

### What does the "Tile" position do?

The tile option repeats your watermark text across the entire image in a grid pattern. This is commonly used to make the watermark impossible to crop out, providing maximum protection.

### Will the watermark affect image quality?

The watermark is drawn on top of the original image at full resolution. The underlying image data remains at its original quality.

### Can I remove the watermark later?

The watermark is permanently baked into the downloaded image. To get the original version, keep a copy of the file before watermarking.

### Can I add an image watermark instead of text?

This tool focuses on text watermarks. For image/logo watermarks on PDFs, check out our Watermark PDF tool. We may add image watermark support for images in the future.

### What is the best opacity for a watermark?

An opacity of 30-50% usually works well. It makes the watermark visible enough to deter theft while keeping the image viewable. Use the live preview to find the right balance for your image.
