Does Gemini put a watermark on video?
Yes, potentially two kinds: a visible mark on the footage, and SynthID, an invisible signal in the pixels, since Gemini video runs on Google's Veo model.
How do I remove the visible mark?
Drop the file into the box on this page. Our media workflow edits it directly across the frames.
Can SynthID be removed?
Yes, using our in-house regeneration technique. It re-renders your video rather than editing the marked pixels, since SynthID is built to resist that kind of edit.
Is my video uploaded here?
Yes, to our own media workflow so the removal can run. It isn't published or shared.
Is this free?
Yes. There's no cost to run a removal through this page.
How can I check if a video has SynthID?
Only Google's own detector can give an authoritative answer. We don't promise what that detector, or any other checker, would report on a regenerated result.
What's the difference between the visible mark and SynthID?
The visible mark is something you can see on screen, edited directly. SynthID is a sub-perceptual signal embedded in the pixel data, cleared through regeneration instead.
Does cropping or resizing remove SynthID?
No, not on the original file. That resilience is the point of the technology, which is exactly why regeneration takes a different approach.
Does Gemini video actually come from Veo?
Yes. Video generated inside the Gemini app runs on Veo, Google's video generation model, underneath.
Does a screenshot show whether SynthID is present?
No. SynthID isn't visible, and no consumer tool can read it from a screenshot with confidence.
Will this make a video undetectable on every check?
No unconditional guarantee is made here, for either the visible mark or SynthID.
Why is SynthID hard to verify independently?
Only the issuer's own detector can give a definitive read. That asymmetry is a real property of the scheme, not something this page invented.
Does it work on phones?
Yes, the upload control and the workflow both work on mobile.
Does removing the visible mark also clear SynthID?
No, they're handled separately. Our workflow edits the visible mark directly and clears SynthID through regeneration.
Is SynthID unique to Gemini?
No. It's a Google DeepMind technology used across several of Google's AI products, not something specific to the Gemini app.
Should I keep my original video file?
Yes. Work from the first-generation export rather than a re-share, since re-encoding and screenshots lose quality and metadata.
Does cutting a short clip from a longer Gemini video remove SynthID from that piece?
Not reliably on the original file. The signal is embedded frame by frame through the whole video, so a segment cut from it can still carry a detectable version, the same as the source.
Can lowering the resolution or frame rate strip SynthID?
Not reliably on the original file, since resisting that kind of processing is the design goal. Regeneration is the route this workflow uses instead.
Does regenerating a video change the content?
It produces a new rendering built from your video. Compare the result to your original before relying on it, since regeneration is a real render, not a pixel-identical copy.
