Frequently Asked Questions
Should I blur my license plate when selling a car?
Many sellers do. A plate can be used to look up vehicle details or to clone plates. Blurring it costs buyers nothing; they can see it in person.
Is plate detection automatic?
With Smart Detect, yes. Without it, drag a box over each plate, which is free and takes a few seconds.
Is my photo uploaded?
Face blur and manual boxes run locally. Smart Detect sends a downscaled preview (max 1024px) to an AI provider when you click it; it is not stored.
Can a blurred plate be read again?
Strong blur and pixelation discard the original pixels. For the strongest protection, use the black box style.
