How Blur Test Works
Get AI-powered visual hierarchy analysis in seconds. Upload your design, see what stands out, and get actionable recommendations to improve conversions.
What is the Blur Test?
The blur test is a classic design technique used by professionals to evaluate visual hierarchy. By applying a blur effect to a design, you strip away the details and see only what truly stands out.
Blur Test AI automates this process using artificial intelligence. Our AI analyzes your design and identifies:
- Which elements capture attention first
- How the eye naturally flows through the design
- Whether your CTA is prominent enough
- If there's proper visual balance and grouping
The result? Data-driven insights that help you create designs that guide users exactly where you want them to go.
