pagedMark: Open-Source Tool Strips Invisible AI Watermarks from Images and Video
d0ofz · reddit · 2026-08-18
An indie developer released pagedMark, which removes AI provenance from your own generated images and video. It distinguishes two forms: metadata like C2PA/EXIF/XMP (easy to strip), and invisible pixel-level marks like SynthID — screenshots don't reliably remove these, so pagedMark regenerates the image, at the cost of possible changes to faces, text and fine details.
It supports invisible marks from ChatGPT, gpt-image API, Z-Image Turbo and Nano Banana, plus visible marks and metadata from Sora, Veo, Seedance, Hailuo and Kling. Memory-aware processing was added for Apple Silicon (tested on 8GB/16GB M5 Macs). After cleaning a GPT-Image output, openai.com/verify reports 0% AI detection. Install via uv tool install "pagedmark[diffusion]"; open source on GitHub and PyPI.
