Redact photos and screenshots with the same object model as our video pipeline
The model identifies document regions in still images—covering typed fields, handwritten entries, and printed text—so you can redact the right areas without manual selection.
Share expense receipts and invoices for reimbursement without exposing account numbers, card digits, or personal tax IDs. Blur just the sensitive document fields before sending.
Remove party names, reference numbers, and financial terms from document photos shared with external reviewers or posted for illustrative purposes on websites or decks.
Screenshots attached to helpdesk tickets or GitHub issues often capture document with sensitive data. Blur those regions before escalating to vendors or open-source communities.
Documents with many sensitive fields can have each document instance detected and blurred in one pass—saving time compared to manual box-drawing in general-purpose editors.
Work with JPEG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC scans or phone photos of document. Output a redacted image ready for email, CMS upload, or archive without re-scanning.
Document images often contain highly sensitive data. We use encrypted transfer and apply automatic deletion after export so your records stay private from end to end.
Document photographs are one of the most common entry points for accidental data leaks. A photo taken to capture the gist of a contract, a quick snap of a meeting agenda, or a scan of a reference letter shared over messaging apps can expose names, amounts, reference numbers, and confidential terms to people who were never intended to receive them.
Unlike a digital file with access controls, a photo of a document is effectively unprotected once it leaves the original sender. It can be forwarded, screenshotted, and shared without any of the permissions that govern the original document. Blurring the sensitive sections—signatures, personal names, financial figures, or account references—before the photo is shared preserves the utility of the image while removing the highest-risk content.
Any document photo that contains personal names, financial amounts, tax or ID numbers, signatures, or confidential business terms should be reviewed before external distribution. Legal documents, financial statements, HR paperwork, medical records, and government correspondence are the most sensitive categories.
Internal distribution carries risk too. Document photos shared in project management tools, ticketing systems, and email threads often outlive the original workflow and end up accessible to teams and contractors who were not part of the original context. Applying redaction at the point of capture—rather than trying to manage access retroactively—is a more reliable approach.
Common scenarios
From compliance teams to content creators, these are the workflows where blurring document before sharing an image matters most.
Blur account numbers and card digits on document images before submitting to finance teams or expense management platforms where multiple people handle the data.
Redact party names, reference numbers, and sensitive clauses from document photos shared with external counsel, auditors, or counterparties who should not see the full record.
Remove PII from document screenshots before escalating helpdesk issues to engineering or third-party vendors—avoiding accidental exposure of customer or account information.
Prepare document scans for long-term storage in shared cloud folders by blurring fields that should remain private, reducing the blast radius if the archive is accessed unexpectedly.

Based on 0 reviews
Document images often contain account numbers, reference codes, and personal data fields that should not be visible to all recipients. Blurring the sensitive areas lets you share context without over-sharing data.
Only the detected document region is blurred. Text and images outside that region remain fully visible, so the document stays useful while sensitive fields are redacted.
The AI targets detected regions automatically. For precise field-level control, review the result in the editor and adjust the blur region manually if needed before downloading.
Yes—you can typically adjust intensity or switch between blur, pixelation, and solid masking styles depending on the editor mode and your privacy requirements.
Common formats include JPEG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC. Supported extensions and file size limits are shown in the uploader when you begin your session.
In most cases, yes—the detector finds multiple regions simultaneously and applies blur to each instance in a single processing pass.
Most single images finish in seconds. Large high-resolution files or temporary queue load may add a few extra seconds.
We use encrypted transfer and secure processing. Review the current privacy policy for specific retention and deletion details that apply to your account tier.
