- People redacting names across local document folders
- Worth noticing
- It distinguishes whole-word matches, ignores case and accents, and lets users review or untick matches before saving.
Field notes
The interface supports folder selection, name-list entry or import, and review of detected matches before saving redacted copies. It lists PDF, DOCX, JPG, and PNG support, including scanned pages, with optional full-page OCR and approximate matching for OCR errors. The page says processing stays on the computer and that it works offline once loaded; it also specifies Chrome on Chromebook, Windows, or Mac because this browser cannot open folders.
