Invisible Watermark Tool

Embed your copyright information using a compression-resistant DCT algorithm.

Legal & Evidentiary Purpose of This Tool

This tool provides you with a method to embed a unique digital signature into your work, establishing a form of probative evidence to support a claim of original authorship.

Understanding its Purpose in a Dispute:

It is important to understand that this watermarking technique is not designed to be indelible or to prevent a third party from creating a visually "clean," derivative version of your image through re-compression or manipulation. The watermark's primary function is not preventative, but evidentiary.

In the event of a copyright dispute where an unauthorized party claims ownership of your work, this tool provides you with a critical advantage. By possessing both the original, unaltered image file and the corresponding watermarked PNG file, you can demonstrate a verifiable chain of custody and creation that an infringing party cannot replicate.

Your ability to present the original file and use this tool to reveal the hidden, specific copyright information serves as a powerful testament to your claim as the original author. The infringing party, possessing only a degraded or altered copy, will be unable to reproduce this evidence, significantly strengthening your position in cease and desist actions, DMCA takedown notices, or other legal proceedings.

The Role of the SHA-256 Hash:

This tool also generates a SHA-256 hash—a unique cryptographic "fingerprint" for each file. This hash provides a definitive level of verification. If even a single bit of data in a file is altered, the hash changes completely. Presenting the hash of your original and watermarked files offers mathematical proof that they are the specific, untampered files you claim they are, further reinforcing their authenticity as evidence.
