About Blurfaces

Blurfaces is a web tool for hiding faces and other private details before media is shared. You drop in a photo or video, toggle the detected faces, adjust the blur and then export a safe copy or create a share link.

Face detection for photos runs in the browser, so the original image is not uploaded. Manual masks cover extras such as license plates, badges, screens and documents, and for video it lets you review detected face tracks before the final render. Share links expire after 24 hours, and only blurred versions are stored.

The editor works without creating an account. The site mentions an optional paid unlock and an invite-and-earn program, but does not list prices on the homepage.
