Description
When someone asks for a photo of your passport or driver license, that copy can end up somewhere you never meant it to. Last week, millions of driver’s license scans tied to a big-company ID-check vendor were reportedly put up for sale. Saferlayer stamps yours with a watermark much harder to remove than a normal one, even with AI. Runs in your browser. Nothing uploads. Free to start. Pro adds PDFs, batch, and unique traceable copies. API for companies protecting stored files.

Could you build this?
Partial A web app stamping watermarks is trivial, but creating an adversarial watermark robust against modern AI inpainting and diffusion-based erasure requires specialized computer vision / adversarial ML techniques.
What it would actually take: A web/API service using PyTorch/OpenCV implementing adversarial perturbation patterns or high-frequency invisible/visible watermarks optimized to disrupt generative inpainting models. Developing and testing watermarks that withstand edge-preserving neural inpainters requires an ML research engineer.
