Document redaction before AI

Clean documents before AI review.

Paste or upload text from documents and turn sensitive passages into structured anonymised output before summarising, rewriting, or analysing with AI tools.

What to check for

  • People and contacts
  • Addresses and IDs
  • Invoices and references
  • Secrets and system values

What to preserve during review

  • Document order
  • Headings
  • Task-relevant facts
  • Copyable plain text

In practice

A worked example

Synthetic input and expected readable output. This small example demonstrates one replacement, not complete coverage. Try it in the tool and review the result.

01 / Source text

Project handover
Questions: team@example.com
The next review covers delivery risks and outstanding actions.

02 / Expected output

Project handover
Questions: [Email 1]
The next review covers delivery risks and outstanding actions.

Follow the workflow

  1. Upload a .txt file or text-based PDF, or paste the relevant excerpt.
  2. For PDFs, review extracted spacing, columns and page order before clicking sanitise.
  3. Review tokens and export the plain-text result, not the original PDF.

Put the workflow into practice.

Start with an example. Review every result before sharing.
