Our Principles

Privacy First

Your files are processed entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to our servers unless you explicitly choose server-side processing for advanced features.

Client-Side Processing

We use modern browser APIs and WebAssembly to perform complex operations like face detection and OCR directly on your device, ensuring your data stays private.

No Account Required

Use all our tools without signing up, creating an account, or providing any personal information. Just open the tool and start working.

Free & Ad-Supported

Maskr is free to use, supported by ads. You can opt out of ads anytime. Your files are never shared with advertisers - only page views may be tracked.

Why We Built Maskr

In an age where digital privacy is increasingly important, we noticed that many privacy tools either require uploading files to remote servers, demand account creation, or hide essential features behind paywalls. We wanted to create something different.

Maskr was built on the belief that basic privacy tools should be accessible to everyone. By leveraging modern browser technologies, we can offer powerful features like AI face detection and OCR text recognition without compromising your privacy or charging for access.

Whether you're a journalist protecting sources, a business handling sensitive documents, or simply someone who values their privacy, Maskr provides the tools you need without the usual trade-offs.
