Anonymize Inspirations
Replace people in inspiration thumbnails with placeholder mannequins to create anonymous style references
The Anonymize feature lets you replace all people in a thumbnail with a neutral wireframe mannequin placeholder. This is useful when you want to use a thumbnail as a style reference without keeping the original person's likeness.
How It Works
When you add a new inspiration, you have two options:
- Create (0.1 thumbnail) — Saves the thumbnail as-is and analyzes its style
- Anonymize (1 thumbnail) — Replaces all people with a placeholder mannequin, then saves and analyzes
The anonymization uses Gemini AI to detect every person in the image and replace them with a neutral 3D wireframe figure while keeping the background, text, colors, and composition intact.
When to Use Anonymize
- You want to reference a competitor's thumbnail style without keeping their face
- You need a clean style reference focused on layout and colors, not people
- You want to build a library of anonymous composition references
- Privacy considerations when sharing inspirations within a team
What Gets Replaced
| Replaced | Kept |
|---|---|
| People and faces | Background and scenery |
| Clothing and accessories | Text and overlays |
| Hats, glasses, jewelry | Colors and lighting |
| Composition and layout |
Cost
Anonymization costs 1 thumbnail because it uses AI image generation (the same model used for thumbnail generation). The standard inspiration creation costs 0.1 thumbnails for analysis only.
Tips
- Anonymization works best on thumbnails with 1-2 clearly visible people
- Complex scenes with many small figures may produce less accurate results
- The placeholder mannequin will match the original person's pose and position
- If the AI blocks the request due to content policy, try a different thumbnail
