Driving footage
Dashcam clips, ride-alongs and street-view style recordings, where plates enter and leave frame constantly.

Capabilities
Purpose-built for plates
A general object detector treats a plate like any other rectangle. A plate detector knows what it is looking for.
Moving and parked
Vehicles are tracked as they cross the frame, so the blur travels with the car rather than sitting still.
Compliance-friendly
Anonymise identifiable vehicles before footage is published, shared with insurers or handed to a regulator.
Angled plates
Plates seen from the side, partially occluded or at distance are still picked up by the detector.
Solid cover option
Switch from blur to mosaic or a solid block when the characters must be impossible to reconstruct.
Stays on your machine
Fleet footage is processed in the browser and never uploaded or stored permanently on an external server.
How to blur a license plate
From dashcam file to publishable clip
Three steps, whatever the length of the drive.
Upload the driving footage
MP4, MOV or WebM from a dashcam, action camera or phone.
Detect plates automatically
The plate detector runs over the clip and lists every vehicle it found, each tracked while it is in frame.
Export the anonymised video
Choose blur, mosaic or a solid block, set the strength, and download a file that is ready to publish.
FAQ
Common questions
Does it catch plates on moving cars?
Yes. Plates are tracked over time so the blur follows the vehicle instead of requiring manual keyframes in traditional software.
Is this enough for GDPR-style obligations?
Blurring identifiable plates is the standard mitigation before publishing footage. AutoBlur helps creators and transport fleets stay compliant with privacy laws, though the legal assessment for your jurisdiction stays with you.
Can I blur faces and plates in the same pass?
Yes — both detectors can run on the same clip, and everything is rendered in one export.
What about a plate the detector misses?
Draw a box around it. Manual regions are tracked exactly like detected plates.
How long can my dashcam file be?
Free local video processing. Review detected faces and plates, add manual regions and check the complete export. Speed and capacity depend on your device.
