Image blurring is not just a visual effect.
It’s a privacy tool.
A blur tool obscures sensitive information by softening pixel values, making details unreadable while preserving context (Glitter AI)
The Problem
People share images containing:
- faces
- personal data
- confidential information
Often without realizing it.
The Approach
We built a browser-based blur tool using:
- Canvas API for rendering
- FileReader API for local image loading
- Mask compositing pipeline for selective blur
- MediaPipe models for face & background detection
Everything runs on-device — no server involved (EveryTool)
Features

✔ Gaussian blur, pixelation, and solid redaction
✔ AI face detection
✔ Background segmentation
✔ 100% local processing (no uploads)
Why it matters
Privacy is becoming a default requirement, not an optional feature.
Tools should enforce it by design , not policy.
