The blur is destructive: blurred faces cannot be restored or "un-blurred" from the result.
Everything else stays faithful to the original: clothing, background, lighting and image quality.
Pair it with the EXIF & Metadata Remover to also strip location and camera data.

3
Compare the result side by side and download the anonymized photo.
Pro tips
Use Low when you only need the main subjects blurred: group photos keep their background life.
Use High for street scenes, events and crowds where every bystander must be unrecognizable.
For a specific person, a bright, front-facing reference photo gives the most reliable match.

About AI Face Blur

AI Face Blur anonymizes a photo in one step. In Automatic mode it finds and blurs recognizable faces for you, with three detection levels: from prominent foreground faces only up to every detectable face in crowds and reflections. In Specific-person mode you add a reference portrait, and every appearance of that one person is blurred while everyone else stays sharp.

The blur is destructive: anonymized faces cannot be restored or “un-blurred” from the result. Everything else stays faithful to the original (clothing, background, lighting and image quality) and a comparison slider shows the original against the anonymized version.

Processing runs on the server and uses credits from your account; if it fails, you are not charged, and uploads are cleaned up automatically. For complete anonymization, pair it with the EXIF & Metadata Remover to also strip location data.

How to use AI Face Blur

  1. Sign in and upload the photo you want to anonymize (JPG, PNG or WebP).
  2. Choose a mode: Automatic with a detection level, or Specific person.
  3. For a specific person, add a clear, front-facing reference photo of their face.
  4. Click “Blur faces” and wait while the photo is anonymized.
  5. Compare original and result side by side, then download the anonymized photo.

Frequently asked questions

Yes: each successful run uses credits from your account, and nothing is charged when processing fails. Sign-in is required.

Yes. Switch to Specific-person mode and upload a clear reference portrait: every appearance of that person is matched and blurred while everyone else stays sharp. A bright, front-facing reference gives the most reliable match.

Low blurs only prominent foreground faces, keeping background life intact. Medium covers every clearly recognizable face and suits most photos. High blurs every detectable face: the right choice for street scenes, events and crowds.

No. The blur is destructive: the facial data is removed from the output image, so the result cannot be un-blurred. Keep your own original file if you need the identifiable version.

No. Clothing, background, lighting and overall image quality stay faithful to the original, only the targeted faces are altered, which the before/after slider makes easy to verify.

Faces are the main identifier, but photo files can also carry GPS coordinates and camera details in their metadata. Run the result through the EXIF & Metadata Remover to strip that information as well.
