An invisible marker embedded in a broadcast feed or a distributed file — so when a leak turns up, it can be traced back to the exact source it came from. Available whether you're an individual creator or an enterprise rights holder, and runs on two tracks under the hood: one built for a signal that's live right now, one built for a file that hasn't released yet.
A leaking live signal and a leaking pre-release file get stolen differently, so they're watermarked differently too — but both come out of the same engine, and both trace a leak back the same reliable way.
For content most likely to be leaked in real time — a live sports event, a breaking broadcast. A forensic watermark is embedded into every frame, imperceptible to the viewer, while the signal is still going out.
Best for: Live sports, breaking broadcasts, any single-source feed
For pre-release and catalog assets — an unreleased season, a screener list, a review copy. Same underlying technology, delivered as a file instead of a live signal, so it fits into a distribution workflow instead of a broadcast one.
Best for: Pre-release screeners, back catalog, review copies
Which one fits depends on what you're optimizing for — reaching every individual viewer, or preserving every bit of encode quality on a feed shared to a handful of receivers.
A leaked clip — live or VOD — gets run back through the same engine to decode the mark. What comes back is a confidence level and the recovered watermark id, not just a yes-or-no on whether a mark exists. A longer clip gives the decoder more of the mark to work with, so it's the most reliable way to get a clean, fully-recovered id back.
For creators, watermarking is a self-serve add-on billed per video — see Creator pricing for the current rate. For enterprise engagements, it's scoped in as part of the coverage — see Enterprise pricing.
