Show Your Project: Fully Browser-Based AI Blur & Redaction Tool (No Server Uploads)
Most online photo blur and censorship tools force users to upload images to third-party servers, which creates serious privacy risks when you’re working with photos that contain faces, license plates, home addresses, ID information, or private chat screenshots.
So I built BlurOutAI — a lightweight, client-side AI image redaction tool that runs entirely in the browser using Canvas API and in-browser machine learning. No images are ever uploaded, stored, or logged on any server.
What it can do
The tool includes five focused censorship & privacy protection modes for real-world use cases:
- AI Face Blur – Auto-detect all faces in a photo with one click, perfect for crowd photos, school pictures, and public sharing
- Blur Text – Censor names, IDs, addresses, license plates, and screenshot text
- Background Blur – Keep your subject sharp while creating smooth bokeh backgrounds
- Pixelate / Mosaic – Classic newsroom-style pixel censorship with adjustable block size
- Full blackout – Unrecoverable solid black bars for sensitive PII
Core technical & privacy advantages
- 100% browser-side processing – All calculations run locally on your device
- No account / No signup – Zero personal information required
- Full-resolution exports – Only blurred areas are modified; original image quality is preserved
- Multi-format support – Works with JPG, PNG, and WebP
- Free tier available – 10 free exports every month for casual users
Who this tool is for
- Content creators & everyday users – Censor chat screenshots before posting online
- Parents – Protect children’s faces on social media
- Marketplace sellers – Hide house numbers, plates, and family members in listing photos
- Journalists & researchers – Protect anonymous sources and bystanders
- Legal & business teams – Redact client PII from documents and screenshots
