Redact faces in a screenshot before it leaves your team

Screenshots leak more than you think: a video call grid, a CRM record with a customer photo, a demo full of real user avatars. Before that image goes into a ticket, a deck, or a public bug report, the faces need to come out. HideFace finds them and covers them in one pass, right on your machine.

Open the screenshot or drop in a folder of them, cover everyone or just the specific people who should not be shown, and export a clean copy. Nothing is uploaded to a web tool, so internal captures stay internal.

Why redact before you send

Internal captures never go through a web tool, so they stay internal.
It catches every face in a call grid, not just the person speaking.
Hard styles like a black bar make the redaction unmistakable.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work on screenshots, not just camera photos?

Yes. HideFace works on any image file, including screenshots, and finds the faces in them automatically.

Can I redact only certain people?

Yes. Select the specific faces to cover and leave the rest, or cover everyone at once.

Is the screenshot uploaded to a website?

No. Everything runs on your computer, so nothing goes through a web service.

Which style is best for a clean redaction?

A black bar or a solid fill reads as a deliberate redaction, which is usually what you want in a ticket or report.

Can I batch a folder of screenshots?

Yes. Drop in the folder and export them all in one pass.
