Blurwise is the Windows software that detects and blurs faces in videos with artificial intelligence, leaving you in final control over every single face — without ever uploading your files to the cloud.
Windows may show “Windows protected your PC”: click “More info”, then “Run anyway”. Details

The actual app
This is the real review screen, not a mockup. Every detected face is listed on the right — tick to blur it or leave it visible, pick a cover style per face, add a face the AI missed or track a plate. What you see is exactly what gets rendered.

On the go
Blur faces in a photo or a short clip straight from your phone — same on-device detection, same privacy, no upload. Now on Google Play.
Features
Blurwise is built around three principles: simplicity, privacy, and reliability.
Automatic face recognition via neural network, in videos and in photos — no need to mark every person by hand.
Faces are followed automatically throughout the video, even when they turn or are briefly covered.
Detection and export run on your graphics card when your PC has a suitable one — NVIDIA, AMD or Intel, nothing extra to install — up to 5× faster than on the processor in our tests, with the same result. No suitable card? It simply runs on the processor. On every version, Free included.
When detection misses a face, draw the box yourself and it keeps tracking from there. The same tool follows a number plate, badge or document across the shot.
Rectangle, oval, eye strip, or an emoji/your own image on top — chosen per face, with a realistic live preview before you export.
Set how strong the blur is, and give each cover style its own margin — an eye strip needs different padding from a rectangle that has to cover hair and ears.
Save a review as a project and pick it up again days later — the detection is never redone.
Keep only the stretch you need: set a start and an end, and only that part is analysed and exported — a long recording is ready much sooner. Pro and Studio.
Add several videos or photos together: Blurwise finds the faces in all of them, you review them, and it exports them all in one go.
Spotted one more face while watching the result? Put the file back with Review again: your choices, hand-drawn boxes and audio stretches come back as you left them, and the new export never overwrites the first.
Hold the step buttons to move frame by frame, skip ahead at 2×, and — in Studio — hear the sound while the video plays.
HDR videos are converted automatically so colours don’t come out washed out, 1080i camcorder footage is deinterlaced, and a High quality setting keeps more detail when it matters. Always an MP4 that plays everywhere.
Studio disguises voices irreversibly — only in the stretches you mark, or the whole track — with four tones, so several speakers stay distinguishable. And it silences a precise stretch when a name or address is said out loud.
No video ever leaves your computer. No uploads, no content sharing — suited to sensitive material, including footage covered by privacy rules such as the GDPR.
Studio can write a record with the SHA-256 of the source and the result, so you can prove what was done without documenting what was left visible.
The app speaks English, Italian, German, French and Spanish, and so does the installer. It follows your Windows language, and you can switch it from the language menu.
How it works
The real app, step by step: click a step to see its screen.
Privacy & GDPR
Unlike cloud services, Blurwise processes everything locally: no uploads and no cloud processing, so your footage is never handed to a third-party server. You can anonymise footage of people without sending it anywhere — a useful step towards GDPR compliance, though not a substitute for your own assessment.
Zero upload
Works even without an internet connection: identifiable video never leaves your computer or your organisation.
Local processing
Uses the power of your own computer.
Auditable anonymisation
Studio can produce a signed record — the SHA-256 of source and result — so you can prove to a client, DPO or judge what was anonymised and how.
Built for sensitive footage
Journalists and creators, and teams in security, healthcare, education, HR or public bodies handling CCTV or interview footage.

For creators
Filming in public means capturing strangers who never agreed to appear on camera. Blurwise detects and blurs bystanders’ faces in your YouTube, TikTok and vlog footage automatically, so you can publish quickly and respect everyone’s privacy.
Automatically hide faces of passers-by in street, travel and event footage.
Process several clips at once and export ready-to-upload videos with faces blurred.
No manual masking frame by frame — face tracking follows moving subjects for you.

Protection does not depend on the version: metadata removal, the blur underneath every cover and the strength of the voice disguise are identical in all three. What changes is how much work you can do, not how well you are protected.
