Drag to select one or more areas — faces, license plates, or any private detail — and pixelate them before sharing. Everything happens locally in your browser.
What does this tool do?
This tool lets you drag to select one or more rectangular areas on an image and pixelate them — a reliable way to obscure faces, license plates, addresses, or any other detail you don't want visible before sharing a photo.
When should you use this tool?
- You're sharing a photo publicly and need to hide a bystander's face
- A screenshot contains a license plate, address, or account number you want to redact
- You need to protect someone's identity while still showing the rest of the photo
- You want to obscure a specific detail without cropping out the whole area
Why use Orisod for this?
This tool uses pixelation rather than a soft blur, which is the more reliable method for privacy redaction — a light blur can sometimes be reversed, while pixelation permanently discards the original detail. You can select multiple areas, adjust the blur strength, and everything happens locally in your browser — your photo is never uploaded to a server.
Frequently asked questions
Does this automatically detect faces?
No, you manually drag to select the area you want to blur — this gives you full control over exactly what gets obscured, including things that aren't faces, like license plates or documents.
Can I blur more than one area?
Yes, drag to select as many areas as you need before clicking "Apply Blur & Download."
Is pixelation reversible?
No, pixelation permanently discards the pixel detail in that area — unlike some blur filters, there's no way to recover the original image content from the pixelated result.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No, the entire process happens locally in your browser using JavaScript.
