Nothing is ever uploaded
Detection and redaction run entirely on your computer, so every page and every word stays with you.

Protect your clients’ privacy whenever you share documents. RedactGuru finds and permanently removes sensitive details from PDFs and scans.
Sharing tenancy agreements and property correspondence requires care with personal information. RedactGuru makes it straightforward to review and redact names, contact details and bank account numbers before sharing a separate copy—all within the desktop app, even offline.
RedactGuru highlights potential sensitive details. Review what it finds and add anything it missed before exporting.
Open a PDF or image, such as a contract, client record or financial statement.
RedactGuru Desktop detects and redacts on your device. Your documents and redaction records are not uploaded to our servers.
Detection and redaction run entirely on your computer, so every page and every word stays with you.

Disconnect and redact a document. It works exactly the same, because it never needed the internet.

Detection is built on Presidio, the open-source framework for finding personal data, extended with our own rules and validators.

Your documents and redaction history stay on your computer—not on our servers.

Many tools just draw a box over the text, and the words underneath can still be selected and copied. RedactGuru flattens each redacted page, so what you remove is actually gone.

After redacting, RedactGuru reads the finished page again to make sure nothing you removed can still be found.

Review contact details, identifiers and TFN found in your documents. Add details the detection missed before sharing.
Numbered labels like [Name 1] keep who's who, so ChatGPT and other AI tools still give their best analysis. Mask and Black box are there too.

Dear Sarah Mitchell[Name 1],
We've moved order 58213 to 14 Harbour Street, Brighton BN1 2AB[Address 1]. The courier will use gate code 4471 to get in.
Questions? Reply to sarah.mitchell@example.com[Email 1] or call 07700 900123[Phone 1].
Kind regards, James Porter[Name 2] Customer Support
Summarise this letter.
[Name 2] from Customer Support is writing to [Name 1]: order 58213 is now going to [Address 1]. If anything's wrong, [Name 1] can reply to [Email 1] or call [Phone 1].
Open a folder and RedactGuru finds the same details across every document, then replaces them all at once. [Name 1] in the lease is [Name 1] in the amendment too, so contracts and complex case files still make sense together.
