What each generator documents about marking its output

A paid switch over a kept watermark, and no route at all

One entry gives paid members a switch for its visible badge and says in its terms that the invisible layer under it is never removed. The other names SynthID under Limitations and publishes no plan, parameter or setting that changes it. From 2 source pages, read 2026-09-22 to 2026-10-13; no maker pays to be listed.

The same invisible commitment, different controls above itBoth entries keep an invisible layer on every output.

Inclusion rule. One row per question on which these two entries can be compared from their own published pages. Questions neither vendor addresses are left out rather than filled with a dash. Order. Fixed order: the mechanism first, then who holds it, then what it leaves behind.

Inclusion rule. The two entries on this page, with the value each one's own pages support in the column they diverge on. Order. Alphabetical by generator name.

1Both keep an invisible layer on

On the question that matters most to a platform's software the two rows agree: each describes an invisible signal that no plan, parameter or setting removes. One calls it SynthID; the other's terms call it a compression-resistant watermark or content credential.

2Only one describes what a viewer sees, and who can change it

One entry also applies a corner badge at delivery and lets paid members switch it off for later renders. The other describes no visible mark at all, so there is nothing on its side of the control column to switch.

For a production that publishes to platforms with their own labels, that difference is the practical one: a visible badge can collide with a platform's label, and only one of these entries gives a way to avoid the collision.

3Where Veo is ahead: a reader

Veo's documentation names a verification platform, so a recipient can check a file. The other entry publishes no reader for its invisible layer yet, so its commitment is in a contract rather than in a check anyone can run.

Each entry has its own page, SceneMixer and Veo, and the rule for the column they diverge on is on the control column page. Other pairs: ten dollars, or twenty-eight, the described marks.
