A creative editor themed to match a host product's brand, with no IMG.LY branding

Your brand, your product

White-labeling is how CE.SDK is built, not a mode you switch on. The editor fits your product on two fronts: how it looks, and where it runs.

Looks like you built it

Apply your brand theme so the editor matches your product’s colors, typography, and styling, not an approximation of them.

No trace of IMG.LY

No badge, no watermark, no attribution. Every panel, icon, and label carries your identity.

In your app, on your domain

The editor lives inside your app on your own domain. No IMG.LY-hosted iframe sits between you and your users, and their content never leaves your app.

What white-label actually means for an editor SDK

“White-label” gets used loosely. With CE.SDK it’s a concrete promise: no co-branding, no “powered by” badge, no hosted iframe, just the editor as part of your product. Here’s what that covers.

  • Full control of the look, from your brand colors and typography to built-in light and dark themes
  • Every part of the interface shown, hidden, rearranged, or replaced with your own components
  • All IMG.LY branding removed, with no watermark, badge, or attribution anywhere
  • Your own domain, running client-side in the browser or natively on mobile
  • Your users’ content kept in your environment, never sent to IMG.LY
  • Copy localized into every language your product ships in
  • A commercial license to embed the editor inside your own product

No “Made with IMG.LY”, anywhere

Nothing in the editor or the files it produces points back to us.

Nothing in the UI

No badge, no “Made with” chip, no attribution line. The interface carries your name, icons, and copy from the first frame.

Nothing on the exports

Files export clean. There’s no watermark or mark on the images, videos, or PDFs your users create.

On every white-label plan

Branding removal is included in every license that covers white-labeling, not sold as a separate add-on. There is no attribution requirement.

Customize the interface, not just the colors

Theming sets the look. Beyond it, nearly every part of the interface is configurable, so the editor behaves the way your product does, not the way ours does.

Brand theme

Set colors, typography, spacing, and radius with CSS custom properties, or start from the built-in light, dark, and system themes.

Every part of the interface

Show, hide, or restyle the navigation bar, dock, inspector, canvas bar, and context menus, so the layout fits your app instead of following ours.

Features and component order

Toggle features on or off with the Feature API, and reorder or recompose any part of the UI with the Component Order API to expose only what your users need.

Custom components

Register your own components to place your product’s controls, panels, and actions directly inside the editor’s interface.

Your own asset sources

The editor is storage-agnostic. Serve your own templates, images, fonts, and audio from your DAM, CDN, or stock provider. The content library is yours too.

Defaults and language

Ship sensible defaults with page formats, crop presets, movement constraints, and color palettes, and localize every label into the languages you support.

Configure it down to the detail

Every region, feature, and default is documented, so your team can map the editor to your product precisely.

Frequently Asked Questions

It means the editor ships as part of your product, not ours. You control the UI theme, icons, and copy, remove all IMG.LY branding, serve it from your own domain, and license it under commercial terms, so your users only ever see your brand.

Yes. There is no "Made with IMG.LY" badge, no watermark, and no attribution requirement. The editor carries your name and your visual identity end to end.

No. White-labeling is about branding and deployment, not features. The same design, photo, video, and print capabilities are available however you brand it. See the product pages for the full feature set.

Theme the editor with CSS custom properties, controlling colors, typography, spacing, and radius, and switch between built-in light, dark, and system themes. You can also show, hide, reposition, or rename the panels and controls, and localize every label.

Yes. CE.SDK runs inside your application on your domain, in the browser via WebAssembly or natively on mobile. There is no IMG.LY-hosted iframe and no third-party domain in front of your users.

Yes. The editor is themed with CSS custom properties, so you can map it to the same colors, fonts, and spacing your product already uses, and it reads as a native part of your app rather than an embedded tool.

CE.SDK is licensed commercially for embedding the editor inside your own product. Contact our team to discuss licensing that fits your deployment.

The editor runs client-side or in your own infrastructure, so your users' content stays with you. IMG.LY never sees or stores it, which keeps data residency under your control.

Yes. Enterprise licenses include custom terms, dedicated support, SLAs, and volume pricing. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
