Totoshop

The Autonomous Anonymization Workshop

A work in progress

The Autonomous Workshop. A universal standalone tool to anonymize pictures and videos, fully locally, on all hardware, with highly customizable settings.

Totoshop is our long-term flagship project. Aiming to become an essential part of any privacy toolbox.

Features

Accessibility

Totoshop aims to be extremely accessible on multiple accounts:

  • All OS: Available on as many platforms as possible. Desktop, Mobile, Self-hosted cloud.
  • All Hardware: Any CPU, any GPU. Assists the user to enable hardware acceleration.
  • Multilingual: Available at release in English and French, Totoshop will be ready for translation in any language.
  • Dev Experience: Totoshop is written and developed with longevity in mind. Aiming to be forkable and resilient against the infamous “Bus Factor“.

Performant and reliant stack

  • Rust: For a high-speed, safe, modern and reliable back-end.
  • Python: Pipelines allowing the app to interact with multiple detection and other models.

Dependencies and Models manager

  • Fully offline.
  • Totoshop is fully standalone: every necessary dependency is available through the manager.
  • The Models manager allows downloading multiple models for face detection and speech recognition.

And much more

  • Subtitles generation
  • Synthetic TTS voice generation
  • Plug-ins SDK
  • Hardware overview
  • Privacy overview
  • And much more through our scalable and modular architecture

Prototypes

Totoshop project started as DefaceGUI, a simple picture/video anonymizer.

In 2026 we’ve started working on a much larger project, developing multiple prototypes to test different stacks.

Roadmap

0.1.0 – CLI MVP
