Remove NotebookLM Watermarks from All 10+ Infographic Styles (2026)
One Tool for Every Infographic Style
In March 2026, NotebookLM expanded its infographic feature dramatically — what used to be a handful of basic layouts is now a library of 10+ distinct visual styles, from playful Kawaii cards to clean Scientific diagrams. Each one produces a strikingly different-looking image. But they all share one thing: the same "NotebookLM" watermark stamped in the bottom-right corner.
That consistency is good news. It means you don't need a different tool or trick for each style — the infographic watermark remover handles all of them exactly the same way. This guide covers every known style, shows how the watermark appears on each, explains why one detection method works across the board, and helps you pick the right style for your project.
The Full List of NotebookLM Infographic Styles
Following the March 2026 update, NotebookLM offers the styles below. Google may add more over time, but these are the confirmed options as of mid-2026:
| Style | Look & Feel | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Sketch Note | Hand-drawn, doodle-style with rough lines | Casual explainers, brainstorming, class notes |
| Kawaii | Cute pastel colors, rounded shapes, mascots | Social media, kids' content, light topics |
| Professional | Corporate, muted palette, clean typography | Business reports, slide decks, pitches |
| Scientific | Diagram-heavy, precise labels, data-forward | Research summaries, technical explainers |
| Anime | Vibrant, illustrated, expressive characters | Storytelling, fandom content, engagement |
| Clay | 3D claymorphic shapes, soft shadows | Modern web content, friendly product intros |
| Editorial | Magazine-style layout, strong type hierarchy | Articles, newsletters, thought pieces |
| Instructional | Step-by-step, numbered, arrow-guided flow | Tutorials, how-to guides, onboarding |
| Bento Grid | Modular boxed grid, uneven tile sizes | Feature overviews, dashboards, comparisons |
| Bricks | Stacked block layout, bold color blocks | Punchy summaries, marketing one-pagers |
Alongside these named styles, the original default infographic layouts from before the March update are still available — the straightforward, text-and-icon summaries that NotebookLM shipped with originally. Whatever you started with, it still exports the same way and carries the same watermark.
How the Watermark Appears on Each Style
Here's the key insight that makes removal so reliable: the watermark position doesn't change with the style. Whether you generate a chaotic hand-drawn Sketch Note or a rigid Bento Grid, NotebookLM stamps a "NotebookLM" text mark in the bottom-right corner of the exported PNG or JPG.
The visual style affects everything except the watermark:
- Background behind the watermark varies — it might sit on a pastel Kawaii block, a dark Scientific panel, or a plain white Editorial margin. But it's always in that corner.
- The watermark text itself is consistent — same font, same relative size, same placement offset from the edge.
- Export format is consistent — all styles export as raster images (PNG or JPG), never as editable vector text.
For a full technical breakdown of exactly where the watermark sits across every NotebookLM format, see our watermark position guide.
Why One Method Removes Them All
Because the watermark is a text stamp in a predictable location — and because it never changes shape between styles — a single detection technique works everywhere. Our tool uses connected-component detection with gradient fill:
- Scan the corner. The tool looks at the bottom-right region of the image, sized relative to the image (roughly 22% of width by 8% of height, with sensible minimums).
- Estimate the background. It measures the local background brightness in that corner — critical for handling every style, since a Kawaii pastel and a dark Scientific panel look completely different.
- Isolate the watermark pixels. It finds pixels significantly darker or lighter than the estimated background — that's the watermark text.
- Group and filter. Connected pixels are grouped into components, then filtered by size, aspect ratio, and vertical position to avoid mistaking real content (like a chart label) for the watermark.
- Fill seamlessly. The detected region is replaced with a vertical gradient sampled from the pixels directly above and below it, so the fill blends into whatever background the style used.
This adaptive approach is exactly why the same tool works on a doodled Sketch Note and a photo-realistic Clay render. It isn't matching a fixed template — it's detecting the watermark by its properties, then reconstructing the background beneath it.

Step-by-Step: Remove the Watermark from Any Style
The process is identical no matter which of the 10+ styles you chose:
- Export your infographic from NotebookLM as an image (PNG or JPG).
- Open the infographic watermark remover.
- Drag your image into the upload zone — or click to browse. Nothing leaves your device; processing happens entirely in your browser.
- The watermark is detected and removed in under a second.
- Preview the cleaned result side-by-side with the original.
- Download the watermark-free image.
No account, no upload to a server, no software to install. Because everything runs locally in your browser, your infographic — whatever it contains — stays private.
Choosing the Right Style for Your Use Case
Since you can remove the watermark from any of them equally well, pick your style based purely on what fits your content and audience:
- Presenting to a business audience? Use Professional or Bento Grid — they read as polished and structured.
- Explaining a technical or research topic? Scientific gives you diagram-forward layouts; Editorial works if it's more narrative.
- Posting to social media? Kawaii, Anime, and Clay are eye-catching and shareable.
- Teaching a step-by-step process? Instructional is purpose-built for that.
- Want a personal, informal feel? Sketch Note reads like handwritten notes; Bricks is bold and casual.
A practical workflow: generate the same content in two or three styles, remove the watermark from each, and compare which lands best with your audience. Since removal is free and instant, there's no cost to experimenting.
Tips for Best Results
- Export at full resolution. Don't screenshot the infographic from your screen — use NotebookLM's export/download so the tool works on a clean, high-resolution source.
- Remove before editing. Run the watermark removal first, then add your own branding or crops. Editing first can shift the watermark out of the expected corner.
- Busy backgrounds still work. Even on complex styles like Anime or Clay where the corner is detailed, the gradient fill samples locally — but if you notice any residue, that's rare and usually tied to an unusual export size.
- Both PNG and JPG are fine. The tool handles both; PNG preserves the sharpest quality for text-heavy styles like Editorial and Scientific.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the tool work on the new March 2026 infographic styles?
Yes. The March 2026 update changed how infographics look, but not where the watermark sits — it's still a text stamp in the bottom-right corner of every style. The tool detects and removes it the same way regardless of style, so all 10+ new styles are fully supported.
Will removing the watermark damage the artwork on styles like Anime or Clay?
No. The tool only touches the small bottom-right region where the watermark lives, and it reconstructs the background there with a gradient sampled from the surrounding pixels. The rest of your infographic — every illustration, chart, and label — is untouched.
Do I need to tell the tool which style I used?
No. Detection is fully automatic and style-agnostic. Just upload the image; the tool locates the watermark by its properties, not by knowing which style produced it.
