Remove Text From Video

Text that is baked into a video frame is pixels, not a layer you can hide. Draw a box over it, and the frame behind is rebuilt so the words disappear — handles, stickers, phone numbers, old titles, price tags. Audio is untouched.

The old way is slow and expensive

Manual translation, hired voice actors, days of waiting. Creators and teams lose time and money on every single video.

Skip the old workflow

I screen-recorded a demo and my personal handle is on screen the whole time.

The clip came back from a translator with the old language still burned into the picture and I need to post it.

There is a sticker or a phone number on a promo video I inherited, and I do not want to send it to a client like that.

How It Works

Done in four simple steps

Upload, pick languages, and let the AI handle the rest. No software to install.

01

Upload the video and drag the playhead to a frame where the text is fully visible

A few clicks, that is all.

02

Draw a box over the text — cover the whole phrase with a little margin, not just the letters

A few clicks, that is all.

03

Run the erase; the background behind the region is rebuilt across the clip

A few clicks, that is all.

04

Preview, adjust the box or re-run if anything shows, then download the MP4

A few clicks, that is all.

Two kinds of 'text in a video' get confused constantly. If the text is a layer — a subtitle track, a title added in an editor and kept editable — you switch it off, and there is a different page for that. If the text is in the picture, it is pixels, exactly like a watermark, and no player setting can hide it: usernames and handles on screen recordings, stickers and captions baked in by social exports, a phone number or address burned into a promo, an old-language title card on a video you are reposting, a price tag you no longer want to show. This page removes that kind. Draw a box over the text, and the AI rebuilds the background behind it so it disappears; the same technique takes out logos and unwanted objects while you are at it. The file is re-encoded to MP4 at the source resolution, and the audio is not touched at all — no re-transcoding, no silence, no shifted timing. Honest limits: it is inpainting, not magic. Over a plain or evenly patterned background the fill is invisible; over busy detail, or when the text moves, keep the box a bit generous and check the result before you publish. Costs 1 credit per 30 seconds of video, with 20 free credits at sign-up and a daily free allowance.

Works on pixels, not layers

That is what makes burned-in text removable at all: the region is taken out of the frames and the background is rebuilt, so nothing about the video file needs a hidden text layer to exist.

Text, objects, logos in one pass

The same box that removes a handle removes a sticker, a logo, a tattooed date, or an object you would rather not show — no separate tool, no keyframes, no editing software.

Audio and timing left alone

Only the picture is rewritten; the audio stream is copied through and the clip keeps its length and sync. Output is MP4 at source resolution.

FAQ

Common questions

How do I remove text from a video?+

Upload the video, move the playhead to a frame where the text is fully visible, and draw a box over it — include the whole phrase plus a small margin. The tool rebuilds the background behind that region for the duration of the clip, then outputs an MP4. If any part of the text still shows, widen the box slightly and run it again.

Can it remove text that moves across the screen?+

A drawn box stays where you put it, so text that travels needs a box that covers its path — or the clip split into sections. Text that scrolls, bounces or animates in scale is the hardest case; covering the whole area it travels through is usually more reliable than trying to be surgical, and it always pays to preview before publishing.

Is this the same as a watermark remover or a caption remover?+

The technique is identical, and on purpose these are separate pages: watermarks and logos have their own page, and captions/subtitles have theirs, because the search intent and the examples are different. If your text is a handle, a sticker, a phone number or an old title card, this is the right page — the tool does not care what the text says.

Does it affect the audio or the video quality?+

The audio is not processed at all; it is carried over untouched. The picture is re-encoded to MP4 at the source resolution, so the rest of the frame keeps its original size. Only the region you boxed is rebuilt — everything outside the box is left as it was.

Which video formats are supported?+

MP4, MOV, MKV and WebM are the common inputs. The output is always MP4, which every platform accepts, so it is also a convenient way to bring an odd container into something you can upload anywhere.

How much does it cost?+

Erasing costs 1 credit per 30 seconds of video processed. Sign-up includes 20 free credits plus a daily free allowance, failed tasks are never charged, and there is no subscription — you pay per task, so a one-off cleanup does not commit you to a monthly plan.
