What is EraseID?

EraseID is a face editor tool that replaces real faces with AI identities instead of blurring them. EraseID swaps recognizable faces in photos for generated AI identities, letting teams anonymize images for privacy or marketing without blur bars, while tuning expression, age, ethnicity and hair to fit the scene.

EraseID is an AI face anonymizer from PiktID that swaps the people in a photo for generated identities rather than covering them with a blur bar. The original subject is removed and a new, photorealistic face is generated into the same spot, so the picture keeps its composition, lighting and mood while the person in it stops being recognizable. Fine controls let an editor adjust expression, ethnicity, age and hairstyle so the replacement fits the scene instead of looking pasted on. The pitch splits between two audiences. Marketing and advertising teams use it to build campaign imagery without model releases or repeated photo shoots, adapting the same shot for different regions and target groups. Privacy teams, schools and enterprises use the anonymization side to publish internal or public photos where faces must be hidden but the visual quality still matters, with the vendor positioning the output as a step up from blurring and as a route to GDPR-friendly publishing. Photographers and graphic designers sit in between, using the face editing features to diversify a portfolio or meet a client brief. In practice the work happens in PiktID's browser studio: upload an image, select a face, then generate and refine a replacement using the expression, age and appearance controls until it reads naturally. For higher volume, PiktID offers APIs for embedding the face replacement and anonymization capability into other applications. EraseID is one product in a wider PiktID family that includes SuperID for upscaling, SwapID for face swaps, TagID for image tagging, plus dedicated face generator and expression changer pages. That makes it a reasonable pick when anonymization is one job among several in an image pipeline, and a thinner choice if all you need is a simple blur tool integrated into an existing editor. Pricing is not published on the homepage, and the free entry point should be verified in the studio before committing a team to it.

How do you use EraseID?

  1. 1Open the EraseID studio
    Go to the PiktID anonymize studio from the EraseID page and start a new project. The free entry link on the homepage leads to the same studio.
    EraseID — Open the EraseID studio
  2. 2Upload the photo and select a face
    Bring in the image you want to anonymize and mark the person whose identity should be replaced. Keep the original framing, since the new face is generated into that position.
  3. 3Generate the replacement identity
    Let the model build a new face in place of the original. Compare it against the surrounding lighting and pose before moving on to refinement.
  4. 4Fine-tune expression, age and appearance
    Adjust facial expression, age, ethnicity and hairstyle so the generated person reads as a natural part of the scene rather than an obvious swap.

  5. 5Export and check the result
    Download the finished image and review it at full size to confirm the original person is no longer identifiable. For higher resolution output, run it through SuperID.

  6. 6Ask about API access for volume work
    Teams that need anonymization inside their own applications can contact PiktID to discuss the API route instead of working image by image in the studio.
