Automatic Face Blur Online β€” Protect Privacy Instantly

Need to anonymize people in a photo before posting to a blog? Hide client faces in event photos? PixLocal Face Blur automatically detects faces and blurs them β€” featuring 3 blur modes, manual region addition, and full offline processing.

Features

Auto Face Detection

Automatically detects all faces in the image. Displays the count of detected faces along with bounding boxes for each.

3 Blur Modes

Mode Effect When to Use
Pixelate Pixelates the face area Retro, classic style
Gaussian Smooth, feathered blur Professional, natural look
Solid Solid color overlay Complete, absolute censorship

Customizable Intensity

Adjust the blur/pixelate level β€” from subtle (outlines visible) to heavy (completely unrecognizable).

Manual Region Addition

Face not detected? Double-click on the canvas to add a manual blur region. Drag the corners to resize, and drag to reposition.

Select/Deselect Faces

Each detected face is listed individually β€” you can uncheck any face that doesn't need to be blurred (e.g., your own face).

  1. Upload an image containing faces
  2. Click "Detect Faces"
  3. Select blur mode and adjust intensity
  4. (Optional) Add manual blur regions
  5. Click "Blur X Face(s)"
