AI that detects, anonymizes, and redacts PII. Entirely on your machine, never the cloud.
Import a PDF, Word doc, or spreadsheet. Dual AI models find names, SSNs, credit cards, medical records, and more — then anonymize or redact. No uploads. No cloud. No third-party AI.
Supports compliance workflows for
AI detection meets manual precision
Four de-identification methods — Redact, Replace, Highlight, and Mask — backed by dual AI models and a manual draw-to-redact toolbar.
Your files stay on your machine
Every AI model and every detection runs on your machine — not in a vendor's cloud. No documents uploaded, no telemetry, no analytics. Disconnect from the internet and detection still works.
AI that catches what regex misses
Detects a wide range of entity types — names, SSNs, credit cards, medical records, passport numbers — using context-aware AI, not just pattern matching.
Two AI models, fewer false positives
Two independent AI models run every scan and combine their results. Two models catch more PII and disagree less than one.
One tool for every document type
PDF, DOCX, XLSX, and plain text — including scanned documents via built-in OCR. No more switching between tools for different formats.
Draw boxes over what AI misses
Handwritten text, logos, signatures — some PII needs a human eye. Draw redaction rectangles directly on the page for anything automation misses.
De-identify, use freely, translate back
Export a de-identified document, share it with AI or reviewers, then use re-identification mode to translate responses back to the original context.
There is no server to breach
because there is no server.
Most AI tools require you to upload your data to someone else's cloud. PII Anomalyzer runs its AI models entirely on your machine. No cloud uploads. No API calls. No telemetry. Your documents never leave your control.
How people use PII Anomalyzer
From AI-powered analysis to legal discovery — here's how teams protect sensitive data without slowing down.
Use AI tools without exposing sensitive data
De-identify a contract, medical record, or financial report using the Replace method. Upload it to ChatGPT, Claude, or Copilot for analysis. When the AI responds with "<<PERSON1>> owes <<ORGANIZATION2>> $50,000" — paste that back into PII Anomalyzer and re-identification mode translates it to the real names and entities.
De-identify your document with Replace method
Share safely with any AI tool
Translate the AI response back to original context
Redact privileged documents in minutes, not hours
Paralegals and legal ops teams process FOIA requests, privilege reviews, and discovery documents. Instead of manually blacking out names in Adobe one page at a time, drop a batch of files into PII Anomalyzer and export redacted PDFs — then use draw-to-redact for anything the AI missed.
Import a batch of case documents
Auto-detect and redact PII across all pages
Draw over signatures, handwriting, or logos
De-identify datasets before publication or sharing
Researchers de-identify interview transcripts, survey responses, and patient records before publication. Compliance officers audit documents for regulatory adherence. PII Anomalyzer handles both — with an export trail that documents exactly what was found and how it was handled.
Scan transcripts or records for PII
Choose your de-identification method
Export clean files with a full audit trail
Share files with contractors without sharing PII
Need to send documents to an external reviewer, translator, or offshore team? De-identify them first, send the clean version, then re-identify the results when they come back. Your sensitive data never leaves your organization.
De-identify before sending externally
Collaborate on the clean version
Re-identify responses when they return
From documents to protected in minutes
Three steps. No configuration. No cloud account. No learning curve.
Import
Drag and drop your documents — PDF, DOCX, XLSX, plain text, or scanned images. Process single files or entire batches.
Detect
Dual AI engines scan your documents for a wide range of PII entity types — names, SSNs, credit cards, medical records, and more.
Protect
Choose your de-identification method — Redact, Replace, Highlight, or Mask — then export protected documents ready for sharing.
