Documents for AI

Mask personal data before using AI on your documents.

Turn names, email addresses and other identifiers into placeholders before you use AI. Edit the selection yourself and restore the real names locally in your browser when the answer arrives.

The task

Use the document's content, not its personal identifiers.

A useful email, contract or report can contain names, contact details and other identifying data. Redactic makes it easy to prepare a version with placeholders while keeping the text you want to work on.

Summarise correspondence

Prepare a client email with masked names and contact details, then ask the AI for a summary.

Work with contract excerpts

Replace selected names, addresses or account references with placeholders while keeping relevant clauses readable.

Bring names back locally

Redactic puts the real names back in your browser after the AI answer arrives.
