    Step 1: Embed (The Creation)

    Invisible Embedding.

    Our AI embeds a unique, invisible watermark at the moment of creation. It remains imperceptible to the human eye but readable by our API.

    Step 2: Anchor (The Validation)

    Ownership Registration.

    Ownership metadata, licensing rights, and provenance are recorded and time-stamped for verifiable proof of ownership.

    Step 3: Verify (The Enforcement)

    Instant API Verification.

    Detect and verify assets even after they have been cropped, compressed, or filtered.

    Key Features of Tectus

    Visibility

    Watermarks are completely invisible to the naked eye.

    Resilience

    Survives heavy compression and editing without losing the mark.

    Defensibility

    Ownership is cryptographically verifiable and tamper-resistant.

    Formats

    Supports multi-modal assets: images, video, and audio.

    Detection

    Finds watermarked assets via automated API scanning.

    Watermarking Capabilities

    Tectus Capabilities

    01

    Compression Resistant

    Detects the watermark even after high-compression encoding such as aggressive JPEG and MP4 re-compression, preserving detectability under the most destructive delivery conditions.

    02

    Geometric Invariant

    The watermark survives spatial transformations including rotation, scaling, and cropping, remaining recoverable regardless of how the asset is geometrically altered.

    03

    Source Tracing

    Differentiate between identical assets distributed to different endpoints, for example the same image sent to Instagram versus a Press Kit, by assigning each copy a distinct mark at embed time.

    04

    Invisible, Undetectable Embedding

    A proprietary invisible watermarking algorithm embeds an undetectable mark into images, video, and audio without degrading visual or audio quality. The watermark is imperceptible to viewers whilst remaining readable by our verification systems.

    05

    Watermark Across All Digital Formats

    Apply the same watermarking process seamlessly across images, video, and audio files. One platform, one workflow, multi-asset coverage for consistent provenance and enforcement.

    06

    Watermarks That Survive Manipulation

    An advanced embedding mechanism ensures the watermark remains intact and retrievable even after re-compression, cropping, resizing, format conversion, and filtering. That robustness supports defensible claims when assets are altered before unauthorised use.

    07

    Determine the Original Publication Path

    Source tracing identifies which distribution channel or recipient was the origin of a leak, enabling targeted enforcement action against the confirmed breach point.

    08

    Embed Watermark With Corresponding Metadata

    Embed a unique watermark with corresponding metadata such as submission date, asset source, and asset version directly into the asset for persistent, verifiable attribution that travels with the content for legal and licensing clarity.

    09

    Fast Detection and Extraction

    An extremely fast, reliable solution that analyses suspicious files to detect, extract, and display embedded ownership data. Rapid watermark detection and extraction support quick copyright enforcement and incident response.

    FAQ

    Questions, Answered.

    01What is Tectus?
    Tectus is an advanced blind and non-blind invisible watermarking service for digital asset provenance and leak tracing. It embeds undetectable invisible watermarks into images, video, and audio, and records ownership metadata so you can prove authorship and trace unauthorised distribution at any time.
    02How does invisible watermarking work?
    Tectus uses a proprietary algorithm to embed a unique watermark directly into the media signal at a level imperceptible to the human eye or ear. Because the watermark is encoded within the pixel or audio-sample data itself, it travels with the asset wherever it goes. We can store your original assets securely on our side, so they do not need to be provided at detection time.
    03How does the watermark survive compression and editing?
    The embedding mechanism is designed to be resilient against lossy transformations such as JPEG and MP4 re-compression, cropping, resizing, rotation, colour adjustments, and format conversion. The watermark is spread across the asset, so it remains intact and retrievable even after heavy manipulation.
    04What is the difference between blind and non-blind watermarking?
    Tectus supports both approaches. Blind watermarking lets you detect and extract the watermark without access to the original asset, which is essential for large-scale or automated enforcement where originals are not readily available. Non-blind watermarking uses the original asset during detection, producing a stronger signal that is more resilient to aggressive transformations. Our team selects the appropriate technique based on your distribution workflow and enforcement requirements.
    05How does Tectus help with leak tracing?
    Each copy of an asset can carry a distinct watermark tied to a specific recipient or distribution channel. If a leak occurs, scanning the leaked file reveals which copy was compromised, allowing you to pinpoint the exact source of the breach and take targeted enforcement action.
    06Which file formats does Tectus support?
    Tectus supports images, video, and audio. Common formats include JPEG, PNG, TIFF, MP4, MOV, WAV, and MP3, among others. The same watermarking workflow applies across all media types, giving you consistent multi-asset coverage from a single platform.
    07How do I get started with Tectus?
    Getting started is straightforward. Request a demo and our team will assess your requirements, including your asset types, distribution workflow, and enforcement priorities. We then configure your watermarking profile and provide API access so you can begin embedding and verifying assets right away.
