About

Overlaysmith is a Chrome extension for placing a single image over the camera video sent during browser-based video calls. Users can import transparent images, use images with removable green backgrounds, or create simple lower thirds by entering a title, subtitle, and color. The extension also provides prompt templates for creating compatible overlays with external AI image tools. Overlays can include nameplates, logos, banners, side panels, signs, decorative frames, and other full-frame graphics with transparent areas for the camera image. Users can preview the result before joining a call and switch or disable overlays while a call is running. Processing happens locally on the user's computer, with no account, video upload, recording, analytics, or cloud video processing. It is designed for supported browser-based meeting platforms rather than desktop video-call applications.
