We're excited to announce a brand-new feature for users on our "Business" plan: AI-powered blurring for people and vehicles in all incoming photos. This enhancement makes it easier than ever to maintain privacy and comply with GDPR and other data protection guidelines while sharing all of your project updates and rendered timelapse videos. Here's a closer look at what this new feature offers.
AI-Powered Blurring for Privacy in Photos and Timelapse Videos Made Simple
Now, with just one click, you can automatically blur people and vehicles in all of your incoming photos. You have the option to toggle on "AI Person Blur" and/or "AI Vehicle Blur" according to your needs. Our intelligent AI algorithms will detect and blur these moving elements, ensuring that privacy concerns are addressed effortlessly and compliance with GDPR requirements for European users is maintained.

Customizable Sensitivity Levels for AI Blurring
We understand that every project is different. That's why we provide you with control over the sensitivity of the blurring function. For both people and vehicles, you can set the detection sensitivity to low, medium, or high. Whether you need broad blurring or a more selective approach, these settings help you achieve the perfect balance between privacy and clarity.
Fine-Tune Your AI Vehicle Blurring
With the "AI Vehicle Blur" feature, you can get even more specific about what types of vehicles to blur. Simply toggle categories on or off, including cars, trucks, buses, bicycles, and motorcycles. This flexibility lets you blur just what you need, maintaining the integrity of the rest of your footage while ensuring that shared pages and embedded images remain compliant.
Perfect for Business Needs
This new AI blurring functionality is ideal for users who work with public-facing projects, such as construction progress documentation, urban studies, or infrastructure monitoring. Keeping sensitive elements blurred helps you share your timelapse videos, share pages, or embed the latest photos with a wider audience while respecting the privacy of individuals and complying with GDPR and other local regulations.
