Detect, review, and redact sensitive data from text before it reaches AI prompts, documents, or workflows. Runs entirely locally — nothing leaves your machine. Features risk-level classification, toggle-based review, and Original/Cleaned comparison.
An on-device desktop tool that scans pasted text for likely PII, highlights matches for review with risk levels, lets you toggle individual detections, and produces cleaned output after confirmation. No uploads — no web server — everything runs locally.
All detection and redaction runs locally using regex and heuristic patterns. No data ever leaves your device. The "Processed Locally" badge reflects actual behavior.
Every detection is classified as High (SSN, credit card, bank account), Medium (email, phone, address, DOB, IP), or Low (name, account ID, ZIP) — with explanations.
Reject false positives before redaction. Toggle individual detections on/off — only confirmed selections are redacted. Full control over what gets cleaned.
See exactly what was found with risk-colored underlines directly in the text. High = red, Medium = amber, Low = cyan. Clear visual feedback before you redact.
After redaction, toggle between the original and cleaned views to verify results. One-click copy the cleaned text to your clipboard.
Simple paste-and-click workflow. No configuration needed. Clean, intuitive interface with clear visual feedback at every step.
Paste your text into the editor and click "Detect PII". The app scans locally using regex and heuristic patterns — zero cloud APIs involved.
Review detections in the Security Summary bar with high/medium/low counts. Each detection shows a risk badge, masked value, and explanation.
Toggle detections on/off, click "Remove Selected PII", confirm, then compare Original vs Cleaned. Copy the clean text with one click.
