Run Add Text to Image on a whole folder of images

Drop a folder, get a folder back. The bulk workflow with Add Text to Image when you have dozens of images to process the same way.

Tool:Add Text to Image

Doing one image at a time is fine. Doing 50 of them is a different problem entirely — and exactly where most browser tools fall apart. Add Text to Image handles batches by design, processing them through the same in-browser pipeline as single files without re-uploading anything.

Run it in your browser: Add Text to Image — Free, no account required, no watermark.

The batch workflow

  1. Open Add Text to Image.
  2. Select all the images at once. Drag a whole folder onto the drop area, or use Ctrl/Cmd+A in the file picker.
  3. Set the options once — they apply to every image in the batch.
  4. Start the run. Add Text to Image processes them sequentially; progress shows file-by-file completion.
  5. Download — usually a single ZIP with every result inside, named after the original images.

How long does a batch take?

Roughly the same time as one image, multiplied by the count. A small image processes in well under a second; 50 of them take under a minute. Larger images (video, scanned PDFs) scale linearly — budget a few seconds per file. Your CPU is the limit, not the network, because nothing is being uploaded.

Memory and browser limits

Add Text to Image stages the work so the browser only holds a few images in memory at once, not all 50. This means you can safely batch hundreds of files on a normal laptop — the limit is your patience, not the browser's RAM.

When batching saves real time

Examples where batch processing pays off:

  • Wedding photo cleanup — a thousand-image album, processed at once, downloaded as a single ZIP.
  • Monthly invoice archive — every PDF for a year, compressed and stripped of metadata in one pass.
  • Bulk format conversion — every HEIC photo from a trip, converted to JPG for sharing.
  • Document scan run — a folder of scanner output, all run through the same cleanup, all named consistently.

Frequently asked questions

What if one file in the batch fails?

Add Text to Image skips the failed file, continues with the rest, and reports the error at the end. You can re-run just the failed one separately.

Can I cancel a batch midway?

Yes — close the tab. Add Text to Image doesn't keep anything; files already processed are saved in your downloads, unfinished ones are simply lost.

Does the ZIP download work on mobile?

Yes — both iOS and Android handle ZIPs from browser downloads. You can extract them with the built-in file manager.

Is there a maximum batch size?

Not a hard one — we've seen users process 500+ files in a single session. The practical limit is your computer's patience.
