How it works
Upload, detect, and redact
Three simple steps. No setup, no integrations, no learning curve.
Upload your document
Drag in a PDF, DOCX, image, or scan. Redacto handles OCR automatically for non-text files — no format juggling.
Detect sensitive data
AI detects 70+ entity types: names, addresses, IBANs, BSNs, phone numbers, and more — grouped by GDPR article.
Review and download
Review each match, adjust if needed, then download your redacted file. Originals are deleted immediately.
Features
Everything you need to redact safely
Designed around the way GDPR-conscious teams actually work with documents.
AI-powered detection
Detects 70+ entity types — people, IDs, addresses, financial, medical, and special-category data — trained on real GDPR documents.
Manual review
Approve or reject each match before anything is applied. Draw custom redactions by hand — you stay in full control of the output.
GDPR-focused workflow
Entities are grouped by GDPR article so you can see exactly what personal data is in a document — and act on it compliantly.
Zero-retention security
Files encrypted in transit, processed in isolated environments, and deleted the moment redaction is done.
All document types
PDFs, Word, PowerPoint, images, and scans — with automatic OCR for any non-text input.
Fast processing
Most documents are redacted in under a minute. Upload and download without waiting around.
Your documents don't hang around.
Redacto is built so that the fewest people and systems touch your data. We process documents for redaction only — and delete them the moment the job is done.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do you store my documents?
No. Your original upload is processed for redaction and then deleted. We only keep the redacted output that you download, and even that you can delete from your account at any time.
How is my data secured in transit?
All traffic to and from Redacto is encrypted with HTTPS. Uploaded documents live only in isolated processing workspaces and are deleted as soon as redaction is complete.
What file types are supported?
PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, ODT/ODS/ODP, RTF, plain text, Markdown, CSV, emails (EML/MSG), and images including PNG, JPG, TIFF, BMP, GIF, WEBP, HEIC, and HEIF.
Can I review detected entities before redaction?
Yes. Every detected entity is shown on the review page before anything is redacted. You decide what gets removed — and you can draw custom redactions by hand if you need to.
What happens if the AI misses something?
Every detected entity is presented for manual review before redaction is applied. You stay in full control — and you can draw custom redactions on anything the AI didn't flag.
Do you offer an API?
Yes. Our REST API lets you integrate redaction into your own workflows. Contact us for API docs.
Is Redacto built for GDPR workflows?
Yes. We detect entity types grouped by GDPR article (personal data, contact, identifiers, financial, medical, special category, etc.), we don't store the original documents, and we publish a Privacy Policy, DPA, and Acceptable Use Policy.

Yes. The Free plan gives you 4 pages with no credit card required. Upgrade only if and when you need more volume.
