01

Subject-aware blur

Portrait AI creates a foreground matte first, so the person remains sharp instead of blurring the entire photo.

02

Fine-tuned depth

Control blur strength, background brightness, saturation, and edge softness from one compact editor.

03

Private by design

The segmentation model runs in your browser. Your source photo is not uploaded to our server for editing.

How it works

Useful output, without a cloud editing queue.

Background blur works best when the foreground subject and background are separated before the blur is applied. BackgroundBlur estimates that separation first, then renders the background independently and composites the original sharp subject on top.

For natural-looking portraits, avoid pushing blur to the maximum by default. A moderate blur often keeps enough context to make the result believable while still directing attention to the person. If the photo is a pet, product, car, or another non-human subject, switch the editor to Universal AI.
