Many image tools run entirely in your browser — files never leave your device. Browser AI tools may download models to your device once; they still do not upload your images to our server for inference.

- Use Face Blur (Privacy) whenever you need: Detect and blur faces automatically for privacy before sharing.
Troubleshooting
Result looks unchanged
Increase strength/quality settings, or download the result and compare file size — small visual changes can still shrink files a lot.
FAQ
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. Processing runs entirely in your browser. Your files never leave your device.
Is it safe for private photos?
Yes. Images stay on your device. EXIF and metadata are not sent to any server.
Why does the first run take longer?
AI models download once to your browser (typically 5–30 MB), then are cached. Later runs are much faster.
Does this use a paid AI API?
No. Open-source models run locally in your browser. There is no per-image API charge.
Are all faces detected?
Most front-facing faces are detected. Very small, side, or obscured faces may be missed — review before sharing.
