Browser add-on Privacy Screen sharing

On a web page, you point at what you don't want seen. An email, a phone number, a card number. DataBlur blurs each one right where it sits, live, as you share. And it stays blurred even when the page reloads.

For anyone who shares a screen with real data on it

For anyone who shares a screen with real data on it.

A video call
A live demo
A recording

Picture who's sharing a screen right now. A salesperson on a live demo. Someone on a support call. A creator recording a tutorial, their whole inbox in the shot. One wrong tab, and a private detail is out in the open. DataBlur hides it while you share.

It blurs right in the page, on your own machine

It blurs right in the page, on your own machine.

You point at a secret
Click an element, drag an area, pick a word, or let it spot the shape itself.
→
Blurred in the page, live
And it holds through a reload, so it can’t slip back.
→
Blur one, blur all matching
A whole column of card numbers at once.
→
All in your own browser
Your screen is never sent to a server to decide what to hide.
In the toolbar: Blur element· Blur area· Blur word· Auto-detect

Here's how it works. You click an element, drag a box, or pick a word, and DataBlur blurs it right there in the page. It stays blurred through a reload, so it can't slip back mid-call. Blur one field, and DataBlur blurs every matching one with it, a whole column of card numbers at once. DataBlur can also spot the shape of a secret on its own. An email, a phone number, or a card number, and it blurs them for you. And here's the part that matters. All of this happens inside your own browser. Your screen is never sent to a server to decide what to hide.

More than a feature: it blurs live, before anyone sees

More than a feature: it blurs live, before anyone sees.

Could be a feature
A call or recorder app could add blur
One app only
Cleaned up after the fact
DataBlur
✓Live, before anyone sees
✓Any site, any browser
✓Your screen never leaves your browser
✓Free to start
A nice extra: only you can peek under the blur.

Product or feature? A video call app or a screen recorder could add blur, and simpler blur add-ons already exist. But the edge here is real. DataBlur hides things live, as you share, so nothing gets out in the first place. It works on any site. And it's free to start. And a nice touch: hold a key, and you can peek under a blur yourself, while everyone else sees a smudge.

So the next time you share your screen, the passwords and the private details are already blurred, before anyone on the call sees them.
