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.
