Why switch
Why people pick BlurPilot.
- 01
You stop blurring by hand
Emails, phone numbers and card numbers are found on every tab when you press one shortcut. Nothing to prepare before each call.
- 02
Precise, not blurry
Card numbers pass the Luhn check, IBANs the mod-97 checksum, and dates or versions are ignored, so dashboards stay readable.
- 03
Try it fully before paying
Free covers the essentials forever, and the 7-day Pro trial needs no email and no card.
Fair is fair
When DataBlur may suit you better.
You like its blur modes and mainly blur by hand; it is actively developed.
Whichever you choose, test it on your own tools with a second device watching the share before a high-stakes call.
