Automated Document Branding and Protection
Secure and professionalize your documents at scale by adding watermarks, headers, and footers automatically.
Use APIs to batch apply branding elements like watermarks and headers/footers on PDFs and DOCX files. This ensures all your reports, contracts, and publications carry your company’s identity and confidentiality notices, without manual effort. Perfect for enterprises needing consistent document formatting across languages and formats.
Secure File Sharing
Protect sensitive data in transit with encrypted, password-protected ZIP archives.
Generate secure archives for confidential files before sharing with teams or external partners. Automate the creation of these secure packages and streamline workflows by unarchiving password-protected files safely and programmatically. Ideal for HR, legal, and finance departments handling sensitive documents regularly.
Image Protection and Brand Consistency in Media Pipelines
Guard your visual assets by automatically watermarking images at scale.
Add watermarks to images in bulk to protect copyrights and maintain brand consistency across e-commerce, social media, and marketing platforms. This use case helps creators and businesses protect their content from unauthorized use while keeping their branding front and center.
Privacy-First User Engagement
Secure your sign-up and onboarding flows by generating temporary and disposable emails on demand.
