FAQs

Is my video uploaded to a server?

No. Face detection and redaction run entirely in your browser — files never leave your device.

What formats are supported?

Images: JPG, PNG, WebP (export as PNG/JPG). Video: MP4, MOV, WebM (exported as MP4).

Is the redaction strong enough to hide identity?

Both pixelate and Gaussian blur effectively obscure facial features. Strength is adjustable — preview before exporting.

What powers the face detection?

A Google MediaPipe face detection model running in your browser, with GPU acceleration when available (CPU fallback).
