Does the tool really remove the Shutterstock watermark on its own?

Yes. Once you upload the preview, AI handles the detection and cleanup automatically — you don't need to brush, mask, or mark anything by hand.

How much does it cost to try?

Nothing to start. Sign up for a free Chroma Studio account and you'll get free credits right away — enough to remove watermarks from a few Shutterstock images before you decide anything.

What kind of results should I expect?

On clean backgrounds — skies, walls, studio backdrops — the removal is nearly invisible. On busy or highly detailed areas, results are still good but may show light residue you can touch up in seconds.

Are my uploads private?

Yes. Images are processed on secure servers and deleted automatically after a short period. We don't use your uploads for anything other than the job you asked for.

Can I use this for watermarks from other stock sites too?

Yes — the same workflow handles previews from Adobe Stock, Getty, Alamy, iStock, and similar sources. Upload the file and AI takes it from there.

Is it okay to remove a Shutterstock watermark?

Only for images you own or are licensed to edit. Shutterstock's terms allow comp previews for internal mockups and layout tests, but removing the mark doesn't grant a license to publish or sell the image.
