Cinematic AI background blur
Create a bokeh-style background without a physical green screen. Subjects stay sharp while environments fall off—ideal for calls, vlogs, and compliance-friendly sharing.
Works with real-world footage
Our models handle natural lighting, motion, and busy scenes. You get consistent blur across frames without manual rotoscoping.
Privacy-first video output
Blur sensitive areas automatically so you can publish faster. Pair background blur with face and plate tools when one effect is not enough.
Creator & team workflows
Batch-friendly processing and presets help agencies, journalists, and operators move from raw footage to redacted masters quickly.
Motion-aware masking
Detection tracks people and plates through the timeline so effects stay locked to subjects—even with handheld cameras.
Professional export options
Export high-quality MP4/MOV/WebM outputs with the blur baked in, ready for YouTube, TikTok, internal archives, or legal review packets.
Not sure where to start?
Visit our examples and docs for sample settings, or combine tools: many teams stack background blur with face anonymization on the same render.

Background blur FAQ
Does BGBlur remove backgrounds forever (transparent video)?
No. BGBlur applies AI blur and privacy effects. For transparent cutouts, full replacement mats, and alpha exports, use our sister product BgRemover: https://www.bgremover.video/
Can I blur moving objects in a video automatically?
Yes, BGBlur's AI automatically tracks moving objects, faces, and vehicles. You do not need to manually mask every frame; the motion-aware tracker keeps the blur locked onto the subject as it moves.
How do I pixelate faces online without installing software?
BGBlur is a completely web-based tool. You can upload any video or image, select the Face Blur tool, and apply pixelation or blur instantly inside your browser without downloading any apps or plugins.
Is it possible to auto-blur license plates in dashcam videos?
Absolutely. Our AI is trained specifically to detect and blur license plates in driving footage, dashcams, and street-view videos. It helps creators and transport fleets stay compliant with privacy laws.
Does BGBlur upload my private videos to a remote server?
Your privacy is our priority. BGBlur leverages advanced client-side technologies to process videos securely. Your files are processed locally in your browser and are never uploaded or stored permanently on external servers.
Can I blur a video background on iPhone, Android, or mobile devices?
Yes! BGBlur is fully responsive and optimized for mobile browsers. You can easily blur a video background or pixelate faces directly on your iPhone, iPad, or Android phone.
What is the maximum video file size and duration supported?
Limits depend on the feature. Standard video blur tools such as face blur, license plate blur, background blur, blur anything, screen blur, NSFW blur, and face anonymization support up to 500MB and 5 minutes on the free plan, or up to 1GB and 10 minutes on paid plans. Object Remover supports MP4 and MOV videos up to 1GB and 10 seconds per clip.
