Your benefits

Confidential stays confidential

Documents that need a CONFIDENTIAL stamp are exactly the ones that don't belong on someone else's server. Here the entire processing happens locally in your browser – technically guaranteed by a strict Content Security Policy.

Whole batches at once

Up to 50 PDFs receive the same watermark in a single run – ideal for proposal packs, contract drafts or application documents.

Free and no sign-up

No registration, no paywall and no third-party branding in your document – only the watermark you define yourself.

Frequently asked questions

Is my PDF uploaded to add the watermark?

No. The watermark is written into the PDF entirely locally in your browser. Your file never leaves your device – our Content Security Policy makes uploads technically impossible.

Which texts work well as a watermark?

Common markings are CONFIDENTIAL, DRAFT, COPY or SAMPLE. You can use any custom text up to 80 characters.

Can I adjust the position and transparency?

Yes. The watermark can be placed diagonally across the page, in the header or in the footer. Opacity comes in three levels from subtle to strong.

Is the watermark applied to every page?

Yes. The text is stamped onto every page of the document, with correct orientation even on rotated pages. With multiple files, the whole batch is marked consistently.

Can the watermark be removed later?

The watermark is written permanently into the page content and cannot easily be removed with common PDF software. Keep the original without the watermark in case you need it again.
