Media

You Type the Words, We Find Every Match

Type up to 5 words or short phrases — a curse word, a competitor's name, a spoiler, anything. BGBlur transcribes the full audio track and beeps out every occurrence, in any language, without you scrubbing through the timeline.

Media

Works on Video or Audio

Upload an MP4 or MOV and the video stream is kept untouched — only the audio gets the beep. Upload an MP3, WAV or M4A directly if you just need the audio cleaned up.

Media

Speech-to-Text, Then Precise Beeps

Whisper-based transcription finds the exact start and end of every matched word, so the beep tone covers only that word — not the whole sentence.

Media

Any Language

Transcription auto-detects the spoken language, so this works whether your content is in English, Hindi, Spanish, or anything else — the words you type are matched case-insensitively.

Media

One Pass, Whole File

No manual timestamping. Upload once, list your words, and download a single cleaned file with every match beeped.

Beep Out Any Word from Video and Audio Automatically

BGBlur makes censoring a video or podcast simple — type the words you don't want in the final file and let automatic transcription find every occurrence, instead of scrubbing through the timeline by hand.

Upload your file, type up to 5 words or phrases, and BGBlur transcribes the speech and inserts a beep tone precisely over each match. Works on video (audio-only edit, video untouched) or audio files directly. Try it at /en/beep-sound.

Beep Out Words FAQ

How many words can I beep at once?

Up to 5 words or short phrases per file in this version.

Does it work on audio-only files, not just video?

Yes. Upload an MP3, WAV, M4A or similar audio file directly and it's censored the same way — no video required.

Will it catch every occurrence of a word automatically?

Yes. Speech in the file is transcribed and every match of a word you typed is located and beeped, so you don't need to find timestamps yourself.

Does it work in languages other than English?

Yes. The spoken language is auto-detected during transcription, and your typed words are matched case-insensitively against it.

Will beeping a word affect the video quality?

No. Only the audio track is modified with the beep tone over the matched words — the video stream is otherwise left as-is.

Do I need to install any software?

No. BGBlur runs in the browser — upload, type your words, and download the censored file online.

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. Voice Anon direct uploads support up to 100MB, while the upload/URL workflow supports audio or video files up to 500MB and under 10 minutes.
