If you've spent any time playing with JiMeng (即梦), ByteDance's AI video generation app, you've probably run into the same frustration I did. You create a cool video using Camera Mode — upload a selfie or a short clip, let the AI work its magic, and what comes out looks great... except for that watermark plastered across the output.
I've been testing various watermark removal tools for months, mostly out of sheer annoyance. When I stumbled across OffWatermark, I figured I'd give it a proper run-through. Here's what actually happened when I used it to remove jimeng watermark from Camera Mode videos on my iPhone.

Before diving into the tool itself, it helps to understand what we're dealing with. JiMeng's Camera Mode (出镜模式) is essentially a feature that lets you upload a photo or video of yourself, and the AI generates a new video where you appear as the subject. Think of it as a digital avatar creator — you provide the raw material, the AI handles the rest.
The problem? ByteDance adds a watermark to every video generated through Camera Mode. It's not subtle — a semi-transparent logo and sometimes the creator's handle appear somewhere on the frame. For content creators who want to repurpose these videos across platforms, that watermark is a dealbreaker.
Here's the thing: JiMeng (即梦) and its international counterpart Dreamina both apply this same watermark. If you're using either version, the watermark removal process is identical.

OffWatermark is a web-based tool — no app, no download, no installation. You access it through any browser. I tested it on my iPhone using Safari, and the workflow was straightforward:
The entire process took maybe 90 seconds for the first video. The free account gives you 3 extractions, which is enough to decide if it works for your use case.
OffWatermark doesn't just handle JiMeng. It also supports Douyin (抖音), TikTok (international version), Kuaishou (快手), and Xiaohongshu (小红书). I tested it with a Douyin link and a TikTok link as well — same workflow, same paste-and-extract process. The tool detects which platform the link came from and handles the extraction automatically.

I ran 12 different Camera Mode videos through OffWatermark. Here's what I found.
100% quality preservation. This was the biggest surprise. The output video was identical to the original in resolution, frame rate, and bitrate. No re-encoding happened — OffWatermark extracts the source file directly from JiMeng's servers. The watermark simply isn't there.
Speed. Each extraction took 5-10 seconds. No queue, no waiting, no "processing" screen that takes forever. Paste, click, done.
No quality loss from re-compression. Because the tool doesn't re-encode the video, there's no generation loss. If the original was 1080p at 30fps, the output is 1080p at 30fps. No artifacts, no banding, no weird compression noise.
Works on iPhone without workarounds. I didn't need to switch to desktop, install anything, or jump through hoops. The whole thing happened in Safari on my phone.
Free tier is limited. Three extractions is enough to test, but not enough for regular use. If you're making multiple Camera Mode videos per week, you'll need to pay.
No batch processing. Each video requires a separate paste-and-extract cycle. If you have 20 videos to process, that's 20 individual trips to the website. It works, but it's manual.
Link expiration. JiMeng share links expire after a certain period (I found some lasting about 24 hours, others shorter). If you copy a link and wait too long to use it, you'll need to generate a fresh one.
No "upload video" option. You can't upload a video file directly. You must use the share link from the source app. This is by design — the tool works by fetching the clean source from the platform's servers, not by processing a file you already downloaded.

Content creators who generate JiMeng Camera Mode videos and want to repurpose them across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, or other platforms will find this useful. The zero-quality-loss aspect matters when you're trying to maintain a consistent look across platforms.
Social media managers handling multiple accounts across Douyin, TikTok, Kuaishou, and Xiaohongshu will appreciate that one tool covers all four platforms (plus JiMeng). No need to juggle different tools for different platforms.
Casual users who make the occasional Camera Mode video might be fine with the free 3 extractions, or the $4.99 Starter plan (100 extractions). If you're only doing this once a month, the free tier might actually be enough.
People who need batch processing or want to upload video files directly should look elsewhere. OffWatermark is designed for the share-link workflow, and it doesn't deviate from that.

OffWatermark is an independent tool. It's not affiliated with ByteDance, JiMeng (即梦), Dreamina, Kuaishou, or Xiaohongshu. It works by extracting the original source file from each platform's servers — the same file that exists without the watermark before the platform overlays it.
The practical reality: if you created the video yourself using Camera Mode, you're removing a watermark from your own content. That's generally fine. If you're downloading someone else's video and removing their watermark, that's a different story. Use common sense and respect copyright.

OffWatermark does exactly what it claims: it removes watermarks from JiMeng Camera Mode videos (and several other platforms) with zero quality loss. The workflow is simple, the speed is impressive, and the output is clean.
The limitations are real — no batch processing, no file upload, limited free tier — but for individual creators who need clean, watermark-free versions of their own videos, it gets the job done without fuss.
If you're tired of cropping watermarks out of your Camera Mode videos or dealing with re-encoded garbage from other tools, this is worth the 90 seconds it takes to test with the free tier.
