blurmyplate is a privacy-focused web tool that automatically detects and blurs license plates in car photos, strips EXIF data, and exports clean images ready for online listings.
What is blurmyplate?
blurmyplate is an AI-powered photo editor designed for car sellers. It accepts JPG, PNG, and HEIC files up to 25 MB each, detects license plates in standard listing shots, blurs the plate area, strips EXIF metadata, and encrypts images in transit. Processed photos are automatically deleted within 30 days, and the tool runs entirely in the browser with no account required for the first three free uses.
Key Features
- Automatic license plate detection — AI finds plates in normal car listing angles (front, rear, ¾) without manual selection; works on up to 50 photos per batch.
- EXIF stripping & encryption — All uploaded photos are encrypted during transfer; location data and camera metadata are removed on export.
- Bulk upload & batch processing — Drag and drop multiple files at once; each successful blur costs one credit, but failed detections do not consume credits.
- No watermark — Downloaded images are clean, with only the license plate area blurred; no branding or overlays added.
- Preview before paying — Users can see the blurred result before purchasing credits or downloading.
- HEIC support — iPhone users can upload HEIC files; the tool converts them to JPG while preserving original resolution.
- Auto-deletion — Photos are removed from servers 30 days after upload, or manually deletable at any time from an account.
Who is it for?
- Private car sellers — Anyone listing a vehicle on Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, OfferUp, Cars.com, or AutoTrader can quickly blur plates before posting, reducing the risk of plate cloning or identity linkage.
- Car dealers and flippers — Repeat sellers processing many vehicles benefit from bulk uploads and credit packs that stay valid for one year, with no per-photo account friction.
- Online marketplace moderators — Platforms or community forums that require plate-blurred images can direct users to blurmyplate for consistent, automated redaction.
What can you do with blurmyplate?
- Protect personal privacy — Keep your name, address, and vehicle identifier off public listing photos; the plate is blurred while the car’s condition, trim, and details remain visible to buyers.
- Prevent plate cloning and scams — Block scammers from copying your license plate onto a different vehicle or reusing your photos in fake listings.
- Reduce tracking and fraud risk — Lower the chance of unwanted tracking, harassment, or identity theft by removing the plate from publicly accessible seller photos.
How does blurmyplate work?
- Upload car photos via drag-and-drop or file chooser (JPG, PNG, HEIC, up to 25 MB each). The first three photos are free with no account needed.
- blurmyplate’s AI automatically scans each image for license plates, blurs the detected area, and strips EXIF data.
- Preview the blurred result, then download individual images or a ZIP of all processed files.
Pricing
blurmyplate offers a free tier: the first three photo blurs cost nothing, no account required. Paid usage uses credit packs purchased in the app; credits are valid for one year from purchase and are consumed only when a plate is successfully detected and blurred. Casual one-off unlocks do not require credits.
FAQ
Will it find the license plate automatically?
Yes. The tool is built specifically for car photos and detects plates in normal listing angles (front, rear, ¾) without manual selection.
Can I bulk-blur a folder?
Yes — drop multiple files at once. Each successful blur on a credit pack costs one credit; failed auto-detections do not burn a credit.
