Redact. Black out sensitive info in text and screenshots, on-device.

Redact finds and removes the sensitive parts before you share: emails, phone numbers, SSNs, credit cards, IP addresses, API keys and more in text, plus black-bar redaction for screenshots and images. Pro adds fully on-device OCR that finds text inside images with zero uploads, blur and pixelate styles, batch processing, and custom patterns. Exported images always have their metadata stripped.

How to use Redact

Paste text into the quick redactor, or open the full editor for images.

Review the automatic highlights and toggle categories on or off.

For screenshots, draw black bars over anything sensitive (Pro can find text for you).

Copy the clean text or export the image. Files never leave your device.

Private by architecture. Redact processes everything locally in your browser. No uploads, no account, no telemetry. The only network request it can make is Gumroad license verification, and only when you enter a Pro key. Privacy policy.
