Deepmosaic

Deepmosaic is software that adds mosaic

Deepmosaic is a Windows desktop application in which AI automatically detects targets in a video (body areas and faces) and applies mosaic to those areas. It has no feature for taking off mosaic or restoring the original footage.

Deepmosaic is software that applies (adds) mosaic. It cannot remove or undo mosaic, or restore the original footage.

What it can and cannot do

What it can do

  • Automatically detect body areas, male faces, and female faces in a video with AI, and track them across frames
  • Apply mosaic (blocks) or blur to the detected areas
  • Find the position and extent of mosaic already present in the footage, and apply new mosaic over it again
  • Set fixed values for the block size, opacity, edge feather, and detection box expansion ratio in settings
  • Have a person review and correct the detection results (add, delete, and move detection boxes; filter by confidence)
  • Export a video with the mosaic burned in (MP4 / MOV / WebM / MKV / AVI, NVENC supported)
  • Import the detected mosaic information into an Adobe Premiere Pro project
  • Process everything on your PC without sending the video outside

What it cannot do

  • Removing mosaic from footage that already has mosaic applied
  • Restoring or inferring the original footage beneath the mosaic
  • Face swapping (deepfakes) or generating people
  • Guaranteeing compliance with review or screening standards

Why is it confused with other tools?

We think there are 2 main reasons.

  • Because the product name contains "mosaic," it is easily taken to be the same kind of software as tools with similar names.
  • In Japanese, the term for "mosaic processing" can mean either adding or removing mosaic.

The name comes from Deep Learning and Mosaic, meaning "applying mosaic with deep learning." It has nothing to do with deepfake or restoration technologies.

Deepmosaic is a separate product from "DeepMosaics", which is published as open source (a tool known for uses such as removing mosaic). Despite the similar names, they are unrelated in both developer and features.

If you are looking to remove mosaic

Deepmosaic adds mosaic to videos. It cannot remove it. We do not offer any product or service that removes, undoes, or restores mosaic, and we do not accept inquiries about that use. Installing Deepmosaic does not let you return footage that already has mosaic applied to its original state. This software has the exact opposite purpose of the feature you are looking for, so check this before you download it.

What Deepmosaic solves

Applying mosaic takes time in proportion to the length of the video, because someone has to watch the whole video and keep following the targets. In Deepmosaic, AI detects and tracks the targets throughout the video and applies mosaic, reducing the work people do to reviewing and correcting the detection results. Footage is never sent outside, and all processing happens on your PC.
