AI Video Redaction Software - Blur Faces & Plates

Your evidence stays on your machine.

Blenda installs locally and processes everything on your hardware. Nothing is uploaded - not to us, not to anyone.

AI does the work. You sign off.

Every detection is reviewable frame by frame before export, and low-confidence audio is flagged for your ear. Nothing is released until you've seen it.

No platform lock-in.

Your redacted exports, reports, and snapshots are standard files that live on your own disk - never trapped in a vendor cloud or evidence platform. You own your output.

See it in action

A real redacted export.

Faces and identifying detail masked automatically, then rendered to a finished clip - entirely on-device, nothing uploaded.

Capabilities

One tool. The whole redaction job.

Video, audio, and transcripts - detected, tracked, masked, and exported from a single desktop application, with no round-trips to the cloud.

01 / DETECT

AI detection

Find faces, people, vehicles, license plates, ID cards, and screens across the whole clip in a single pass - with AI detection and pixel-precise segmentation.

02 / MASK

Redaction masks

Blur, pixelate, solid fill, or outline - ellipse or rectangle, with adjustable strength, size, and color. Redactions are burned permanently into the exported file, never layered on top.

03 / TRACK

Object tracking

Lock onto a moving subject and follow it forward or backward through time. Group multiple boxes into one named entity, refine with keyframes.

04 / AUDIO

Audio redaction

Bleep or mute names, addresses, and other spoken PII with word-level precision - you redact the word, not the sentence. Includes offline transcription and embeddable subtitles.

05 / REPORT

Redaction reports

Export a detailed report documenting every alteration - case info, media metadata, a per-entity redaction log, and a SHA-256 integrity hash.

06 / EXPORT

Export & playback

Export redacted video and snapshots with frame-accurate slow-motion and variable-speed playback, forward or reverse.

Workflow

From raw footage to defensible export.

A four-stage pipeline that turns hours of frame-by-frame masking into minutes.

The same clip with every head automatically detected and blurred, each tracked across the timeline in the Redactions panel

Two clicks. Tick a detection class, hit Start - Blenda finds, tracks, and masks every head across the entire clip. All that's left is export.

01 - Detect

Scan the clip

AI sweeps the full video for faces, plates, IDs, and screens - with a shaky-footage mode for handheld sources.

02 - Track

Lock the subject

Follow each subject through time, forward or reverse, and group related detections into a single entity.

03 - Mask

Apply redaction

Choose blur, pixelate, solid, or outline. Fine-tune position and effect with keyframes on the timeline.

04 - Export

Prove integrity

Render redacted media plus a PDF report and a SHA-256 hash for chain-of-custody verification.

Background redaction

Blur the whole scene. Clear only what you approve.

Switch on background redaction and every pixel is masked by default. Then mark the people or the regions of the scene that should stay visible - the subject of an interview, an officer's hands, a document on the table. Everything you don't approve stays blurred.

01 / INVERT

Masked by default

Instead of hunting down every face that has to disappear, you start from a fully redacted scene and open up only what belongs in the release.

02 / EXEMPT

Mark what stays clear

Select people or draw any region of the frame as exempt. Blenda tracks them through the clip, so they stay clear as they move.

03 / COVER

Nothing slips through

Bystanders who wander in, reflections, monitors, and whiteboards are covered without being individually detected - built for crowded or unpredictable scenes.

Chain of custody

A report that stands up to scrutiny.

CASE
Case information
Examiner, organization, date-time, description, and custom fields.
META
Full media metadata
Format, codec, resolution, frame rate, bit rate, duration, and file size.
LOG
Per-entity redaction log
Shape, mask, detection class, position, time range, and origin for every redaction.
HASH
Cryptographic integrity
SHA-256 of source and export so anyone can verify nothing else was altered.

Who it's for

Built for people who can't put evidence in the cloud.

Public-sector and legal teams that need real AI redaction - without an enterprise platform, a subscription bundle, or a third party ever touching the file.

Public Records & FOIA teams

Clear the video backlog. Sign off with confidence.

Requests for bodycam and CCTV footage keep coming, and frame-by-frame redaction doesn't scale. Blenda's AI sweeps each clip automatically and gives you a reviewable detection list - so the person signing the release has actually seen every redaction. Exemption-ready audit logs and redaction reports come out with every export.

Defense attorneys & legal teams

Redact discovery footage yourself - under privilege.

You don't get access to the prosecution's evidence platform, and uploading client material to a third-party cloud raises questions you don't need. Blenda runs on your own machine: redact bodycam and interview footage for experts, motions, and trial without any outside party ever touching the file. $250 per seat per month, or $2,750 per year.

Law enforcement agencies

Full AI redaction without the enterprise contract.

No cloud subscription, no evidence-platform bundle, no per-file fees. A single license that runs on your existing workstation, with all video processing kept on-device - your footage never leaves the machine. Purchase orders accepted; W-9 on request.

How offline works

"Offline" isn't a setting. It's the architecture.

Blenda is a desktop application. The AI models are bundled at install, and all video and audio processing happens on your own hardware - your footage and evidence never leave your systems, and nothing is uploaded to us or anyone else. The app uses the network only to activate your license and check for updates. Designed for CJIS-conscious workflows.

SIGNED
Signed installer
Verified publisher - no SmartScreen guesswork on locked-down machines.
LOCAL
Your media stays local
Video and audio are processed entirely on-device - they are never uploaded, streamed, or sent off the machine.
ACTIVATE
Quick online activation
A one-time license activation over the internet gets you started; your footage is never part of it.
BURN-IN
Permanent redaction
Exports are re-encoded with redactions rendered into the pixels and audio, and metadata scrubbed. No hidden original layer to recover.
SAFE
Non-destructive by design
Synchronized working copies keep your master evidence untouched while you produce finalized exports.

Under the hood

Built for GPU-grade performance.

Real-time detection and hardware-accelerated masking, entirely on the local machine.

Minimum GPU

NVIDIA RTX 2080 or newer

The AI runs on your graphics card, not in a data center - that is what makes detection this fast while the footage stays on your machine. Blenda checks the GPU on startup.

When it lapses the app won't launch until you renew - but everything you've already produced (redacted exports, reports, and snapshots) stays on your disk as standard files, yours to keep. Credit card, ACH, and purchase orders accepted; W-9 available on request.

Redact the faces, keep the evidence.
