What Is LicensePlateBlur
License plate blur effectively covers up plates in vehicle photos. It's especially handy for automakers, car sellers, or anyone sharing auto content online. After all, no one wants their personal information out there for anyone to see.
Spot It Instantly
Smart tools now automatically detect license plates, no need to draw boxes or adjust settings. It's fast, easy, and takes the guesswork out of editing.
Smooth, Accurate Blurring
Once the plate is found, a clean blur is added right over it. Whether the car's parked or in motion, the blur adjusts perfectly so nothing looks off.
Clean Finish, Ready to Share
After everything's blurred, the image is checked for sharpness and balance. You get a polished final shot that protects privacy without sacrificing quality.
