You're selling a car and need to blur the plates. You're sharing a screenshot of a receipt but the card number is visible. You took a great event photo but a stranger's kid is in frame. NexRedact lets you draw blur zones over anything sensitive, then saves a flattened image where the blur is permanent and cannot be undone.
Select or drag your image into the secure editor window.
Draw blur areas over faces, names, plates, or private details.
Download a clean, flattened file where original data is permanently destroyed.
No layers, no Photoshop, no uploading sensitive images to someone else's server. Just draw, blur, download.
Click and drag to select a rectangular area. Adjust the blur intensity — from a subtle gaussian to a heavy pixelation that makes text completely unreadable. Add as many zones as you need before saving.
The downloaded image is flattened. The blurred pixels are baked into the file — there's no hidden layer underneath that someone could extract. This matters for legal, medical, and journalistic work where partial redaction isn't acceptable.
Blurring license plates in vehicle listings. Redacting account numbers on invoice screenshots. Hiding bystander faces in crowd photos for news use. Removing your address from a photo before posting it to a marketplace. All of this takes about ten seconds.
The image stays in your browser the entire time. NexRedact uses the Canvas API to apply the blur filter locally — no server, no account, no file size cap. Download the result as JPG or PNG and you're done.
Everything you need to know about NexRedact privacy redaction.
Yes, completely. The blur and blackout zones are permanently drawn and rasterized onto the image canvas before download. There are no layers, masks, or metadata tags left behind that could be undone.
No. Unlike PDF editors that sometimes hide original text under a black box, NexRedact performs a destructive pixel edit. The original pixels in the blurred/blackout zones are completely replaced and destroyed.
NexRedact supports JPG, PNG, WebP, and other standard browser-compatible image formats.
No, they never touch any server. The redaction is done entirely inside your local browser client to guarantee maximum privacy for financial, legal, or personal data.
