A Python library and CLI/GUI tool that embeds invisible blind watermarks into images using discrete wavelet transforms, protecting creators' intellectual property. Watermarks are visually imperceptible and can be extracted with a secret key even after attacks like blurring, cropping, noise, brightness changes, and geometric distortions.

Use cases

• embed an invisible watermark in my images to prove ownership
• extract a hidden watermark from an image to prove copyright
• protect artwork from being stolen without credit
• recover watermarks from rotated or scaled images
• batch watermark images from the command line

When to choose

• you are a creator who wants invisible, attack-resistant image watermarks
• you need a free, open-source blind watermarking solution in Python
• you want both CLI and GUI interfaces for watermarking

When to avoid

• you need a pip-installable package (not yet published to PyPI)
• you need video watermarking support
• you require a publicly verifiable third-party watermark attestation service
