Auteura

A virtual camera for Chrome and ChromeOS: background blur, zoom and framing, LUTs, color, and camera controls, processed on-device.

It adds "Auteura Virtual Camera" to every website's camera list, and the picture it sends gets background blur, framing, looks and color, all processed on your device.

On a video site such as Google Meet, Zoom or Teams on the web, choose "Auteura Virtual Camera" as your camera, or turn on "Default camera for sites" so sites that ask for any camera get it automatically. Changes apply live. "Open preview" shows the same picture in its own tab, so you can set things up before a call. Where it works Websites and installed web apps in Chrome. It doesn't appear in desktop apps (the Zoom or Teams apps, OBS), Android apps, Linux apps or the ChromeOS Camera app, because those don't use Chrome's camera APIs. Privacy Everything is processed on your device. Auteura has no servers, no accounts and no analytics, and makes no network requests of its own. Your video goes only to the site you're using it with.
