Hi HN, I built RedactMyPDF.com after struggling to manually redact a large legal PDF, and I found that existing tools were either expensive or clunky. RedactMyPDF uses AI (Gemini) + OCR + human review to make redaction fast but safe: Auto-detects sensitive info based on document context (names, addresses, IDs, etc.) Full control to accept, reject, or add redactions Works on scanned PDFs (OCR with Tesseract) Secure & GDPR-compliant (AES-256, EU storage, one-click deletion) Irreversible blackouts + metadata removal Audit logs (CSV export for compliance) Try it here: www.redactmypdf.com Thanks!

Higher usage and multi-page support require a paid account. Right now, it works great for removing sensitive details like names, addresses, and emails, but I’d love to get your thoughts: • What redaction…

I built the desktop app that detects and redacts personal data (or PII) locally without sending any text to server. It supports rule-based filtering and AI model-based redaction (eg openai privacy filter). It's open source and free. Please check out the repo and https://pii-gui.vercel.app/
