Stop people saving your images: Pixel Sentinel in 90 seconds

Narrated by an AI voice, with captions. Plays from YouTube when you press play. Watch on YouTube · More on our channel

Your visitors see your real photos and artwork. People who save them, sites that copy them, image search and AI scrapers get a scrambled copy with your name on it.

In this demo you'll see an artist's site, what "Save image as" really gets, a copycat site that hotlinked the images, and the dashboard that shows every request.

Honest limits: screenshots can't be blocked on any website. Large views carry an invisible watermark unique to each viewer, so a leaked screenshot can be traced. Read what it can and can't do: pixelsentinel.net/limitations

0:03 An artist's protected website

This is Juniper Lane Studio, an artist's website. Every picture on it is protected by Pixel Sentinel, and visitors see the real images, sharp and in full color.

0:14 What "Save image as" gets

Now try to take one. Save it, or open it in a new tab, and what you get is a scrambled copy, with the artist's name and copyright notice across the top.

0:25 Copycat sites

The same happens when another website copies your pictures. This wallpaper site hotlinked three of the artist's images. Its visitors only ever see the scrambled copies.

0:36 Search and AI scrapers

Image search, crawlers and AI scrapers get the scrambled copy too, so your work is useless to them as training data. Every file also carries your copyright notice, and the standard no A I signals.

0:50 Your traffic dashboard

Your dashboard shows every request: real views on your own site, and the scrambled copies and blocked attempts everywhere else.

0:58 What it can't do

No image protection is perfect, and we say so. Screenshots can't be blocked on any website. So large views carry an invisible watermark that is unique to each viewer, and a leaked screenshot can be traced back to the visit it came from.
