Background Blur Tool

Purpose: This tool provides a browser-based solution to blur photo backgrounds while keeping the foreground subject sharp. It serves photographers, e-commerce teams, social media editors, and marketing designers who need fast, repeatable blur without desktop software. Use cases include portrait images with cluttered backdrops, product photos requiring separation from the background, and thumbnails where distractions must be minimized. Core value lies in a repeatable, non-destructive blur process performed in-browser with sensible defaults and optional masking. Core Logic & Features: Required inputs include an image, blur radius in pixels, and an edge-preservation parameter. Optional features include a subject mask, auto-detection of the subject, choice of blur method (Gaussian by default, optional bilateral), and output format/quality. The tool preserves subject edges while softening the background. Advanced options enable masking, selective blur of zones, and batch processing in a single session. Algorithms are optimized for in-browser execution and minimal quality loss. Outputs maintain original dimensions; users choose PNG or JPEG and quality. Interfaces emphasize precise parameter control and predictable results for reproducible workflows. Use cases span portfolio edits, product catalogs, and social thumbnails where background distraction is minimized without heavy software.
