What Is a Background Blur Tool?
A background blur tool uses AI to automatically detect the subject in your image and blur only the background while keeping the subject sharp. This creates a professional bokeh effect similar to portrait mode on smartphones, perfect for photos, portraits, and product shots.
For best results, use the Image Background Remover first for complete subject isolation, or convert your image to the optimal format after editing.
