How to blur or pixelate part of an image
To redact an image, drop it into the tool, drag a rectangle over the area you want to hide, and choose blur, pixelate, or a solid fill. Repeat for as many regions as you need, then export the finished image. The rest of the picture stays exactly as it was.
The whole workflow runs in your browser, so the image is never uploaded to a server. That means a sensitive screenshot or document can be redacted and exported without ever leaving your device, and there is no upload queue or wait.
- Drop in the image

- Repeat as needed, then export
Why redact before an image leaves your device
A lot of image sharing risk is not about aesthetics, it is about visible details that should not travel further: faces in the background, phone numbers, order details, map coordinates, chat names, or interface elements that were never meant to be public.
A browser-first redaction tool solves that cleanly. It lets you hide exactly the part that matters, keep the rest of the image intact, and export with confidence, all without sending the file to a server first. That privacy is the whole point when the content is sensitive.
- Redacting screenshots before support tickets, docs, or social sharing
- Hiding faces or license plates in everyday photos
- Masking names, addresses, numbers, and account details
- Cleaning up product, dashboard, or admin screenshots before publishing
Blur, pixelate, or fill: which to use
Blur is best when you want to soften a detail without making the edit look harsh, keeping the image natural while still obscuring what matters. Pixelation is better when you want the redaction to read clearly as intentional, with a visible mosaic over the hidden area.
A solid fill is the strongest option. When a screenshot or document area must be completely unreadable, a flat block leaves no recoverable detail, which makes it the safest choice for highly sensitive information like account numbers or credentials.
