Local repair needs a browser with WebGPU and supported video codecs. Try an updated Chrome or Edge on a computer. Your video is not uploaded.

Four types of video overlays
Synthetic overlays added to a real public-domain recording. Try each input in the tool.
A cleaner frame, one area at a time
Choose the overlay type and a video.
Select only the unwanted area, then preview a short segment.
Check for residual text and changes to the background, then download.
Choose how to remove the video overlay
Remove a logo or graphic watermark
Choose Graphic watermark and select the whole mark, including its translucent edges. This mode repairs everything in the box, so keep nearby faces and useful details outside it.
Watch for a visible patch or repeated texture, especially when the camera moves.
Erase a text watermark or timestamp
Choose Text watermark to detect letters inside your selection. Include the outlines and shadows. If stylised text is missed, try Everything in this area with a tight box.
Check thin strokes and shadows for leftover text. Unselected text stays outside the repair area.
Remove scrolling comments or danmaku
Choose Scrolling comments and cover the band the comments move through during the selected segment. Repair uses nearby frames, but overlapping comments and fast motion are harder to reconstruct.
Play the preview at normal speed to spot flicker. A still frame alone cannot show whether the repair stays consistent.
Remove burned-in subtitles or captions
Choose Subtitles and select the subtitle band, including every line and outline. First check your player: a separate subtitle track can simply be turned off; text embedded in the picture needs image repair.
Review subtitle entrances, exits and scene cuts for smearing or softened background detail.
Supported videos and local processing limits
Input
MP4, MOV or WebM, up to 2 GB and 2 hours. The browser must be able to decode the video and its audio. Export an SDR copy before using HDR footage.
Repair segment
Preview up to 3 seconds; process up to 30 seconds at a time. The download contains only the selected segment. Keep the repair box within 45% of the picture.
Download
H.264 MP4, up to 540p and 24 fps. The selected segment’s audio is retained when present and supported. Video and audio are re-encoded; this is not a lossless export.
Browser
Use a computer with a recent Chrome or Edge, WebGPU and compatible video codecs. Speed depends on your GPU, memory and selected area. Keep the tab open while processing.
Check the repair before downloading
Start with a tight selection and a short preview. Include all text edges without covering extra background.
Compare the original and result at the same moment, then watch the motion. Look for remaining letters, flicker and changes to faces or textures.
Try the Fine preference or a shorter segment if the result needs work. Hidden detail is estimated; a clean source without the overlay is preferable when available.
Video text removal: common questions
Is the video text remover free?
This browser tool can process and export the selected segment without an account or payment. Its 30-second repair limit and output resolution still apply.
Does my video leave my device?
No. Video reading, text detection, repair and export run on your device. First use downloads about 55–100 MB of model files, which the browser can cache for reuse. Your video is not sent to a repair server.
Can I use it completely offline?
Processing is local, but loading the page and downloading or checking model files needs a connection. A fully offline first visit is not supported. Cached models reduce repeat downloads.
What if the model download fails or the repair is too slow?
Keep the page open, check your connection and retry. Your selected video remains local. For slow repairs, start with Balanced, shorten the segment or reduce the selection. Browser storage and GPU limits can also prevent processing.
Can this restore the exact original picture?
No. Hidden details may be estimated from nearby frames. Complex patterns, faces and large opaque overlays can leave visible artifacts.
Will it erase every word on screen?
Text detection is limited to your selected area. Graphic watermarks use the whole-area option. Keep signs, slides and other text you want outside the selection.
Does the video keep its audio?
The exported segment retains its audio when present. The picture is re-encoded as MP4, with output up to 540p and 24 fps.
Can I remove subtitles without repairing the picture?
If your player loads a separate subtitle file or track, switch that track off. This tool is for text already embedded in the video picture.
FIELD GUIDE
Remove a video overlay by selecting only the area you need
Watermarks, captions and comment overlays require different selections. A small, stable region is easier to review than a large box; the reconstructed background can change details, so preview and inspect the exported segment.
Identify the overlay and where it moves
Use the matching mode for a logo or watermark, subtitles, or moving comments. Watch the clip before drawing a region: note when the overlay appears, whether it moves, and whether it crosses people or important objects. The tool removes a selected visual area; it does not remove the audio.
Select the smallest region that covers the overlay
Include the full text, shadow, outline and a little edge room. Avoid surrounding unrelated objects. Larger selections provide more background to reconstruct and may change more of the scene; the selected area is limited to 45% of the frame.
For multiple overlays, position the region over the target that needs removal and inspect whether other items share the same area. Do not assume the tool can identify a particular brand or subtitle automatically without a suitable selection.
Illustration of selection and reconstruction; generated background detail may differ from the source.
Preview a short segment before full processing
The preview covers up to three seconds. Use it to check whether the overlay is gone and whether nearby edges, faces, textures or motion have changed. If the result smears or flickers, tighten the selection or try the detail quality setting. Preview again after each change.
Process only the interval that needs repair
A single repair is limited to up to 30 seconds. Set the start and end to include the overlay and a small amount of context, then confirm the chosen interval before processing. The output is H.264 MP4, up to 540p and 24 fps; compatible audio is kept for the selected range.
Understand reconstruction limits
The hidden background is inferred from nearby frames, not recovered from the original. Fine texture, moving edges and objects that pass behind the overlay may blur or change. This tool does not guarantee a perfect reconstruction and should not be used as evidence that original visual information is preserved.
Review the result at normal speed
Watch the full exported segment, including the moment the overlay enters and leaves. Check for leftover letters, a visible patch, flicker or changed details on a person or object. Compare with the original at the same timestamps and keep the source file. Processing happens in the browser, but large files still need device memory and time.
Before you save or share
The selected area includes the complete overlay but avoids unnecessary scene content.
The preview removes the target without unacceptable blur or flicker.
The export interval and 540p/24 fps output limits fit the intended use.
The processed clip plays correctly and its audio is still synchronized.
The background reconstruction has been reviewed rather than assumed exact.
