## About

Smart Blur is a productivity and privacy browser extension that lets you blur parts of web pages so passwords, messages, or personal data stay hidden during screen shares or when someone glances at your screen. It supports blurring emails, phone numbers, and IDs on any web page as it loads, and allows users to add custom keywords and patterns to match data across the page. The extension also includes a Local AI feature that finds names and addresses in plain sentences without uploading any data. It is available as a free plan with some features, and a Pro plan with additional features such as automatic screen share detection and screenshot blurring. Smart Blur is available for Chrome, Edge, and Brave browsers.
