Upload a video, pause where the blur should start, draw a box over a face, license plate, screen, or anything else, then mark where it should stop. No app to install, no account, nothing ever leaves your browser.
The blur box stays in one fixed position on screen for whatever time window you set — it does not follow a moving subject across the frame. That makes it a good fit for a scene where a face or plate holds roughly still for a few seconds, a static watermark or logo, or a screen recording with a sensitive area on screen for part of the clip. It won't automatically track a face or object as it moves, and outside the time window you set, that area of the frame stays sharp.
Redaction software is built for newsrooms and forensics teams, priced accordingly — most people just need to hide one thing for one stretch of one clip.
Open Video Blur Out Editor, upload a video file, then pause where you want the blur to start, click "Draw Blur Box," and drag a box over the area you want hidden. Press play again, and when the video reaches where the blur should stop, click "End Blur Here" (or leave it unset to blur through to the end). Click Blur & Export.
No — the blur box stays in one fixed position on screen, for whatever time window you set (or through to the end of the video if you don't set one). It's built for fixed-position redaction during a specific stretch of the clip, not for tracking a moving face or object across the frame.
No. The video is loaded and re-encoded entirely in your browser (the conversion uses ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly). Nothing is sent to a server — the file only exists on your device until you download the result.
It accepts common formats like MP4, WebM, MOV, and MKV, and always exports MP4 (H.264 video, AAC audio) regardless of what you uploaded.
The blur and re-encode both run locally in your browser rather than on a server, so it works best for short clips — 5 minutes or under, no higher than 720p. Longer or higher-resolution videos take proportionally longer.
Yes, completely free, no account or install required.
You can review the box position and time window you set before clicking Blur & Export, but the actual blurred result only renders during export.
No — it applies a fixed blur intensity strong enough to obscure typical detail like a face or plate; it isn't adjustable per box.
Audio is untouched — only the visual region you selected is affected, for the whole clip.
