PII Detector & Redactor

Detect and redact personal info — names, emails, phone numbers, locations, credit cards, IPs — with an on-device AI model. Free, private, no upload. Runs on your device — nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored.

Runs a small AI model (named-entity recognition) entirely in your browser, plus pattern matching for emails, phone numbers, credit cards, and IPs. The model downloads once from a CDN on first use, then runs on-device — your text is never uploaded.

About PII Detector & Redactor

Detect and redact personal info — names, emails, phone numbers, locations, credit cards, IPs — with an on-device AI model. Free, private, no upload.

PII Detector & Redactor is a free ai tools utility that runs an AI model directly inside your browser — your source material never leaves your device. The only thing that touches the network is the model file itself: on the first run, your browser downloads it from a public CDN (think of it like downloading an app) and caches it. Every subsequent run uses the cached copy, so after that first visit the tool is essentially an offline desktop app that lives in a tab.

The trade-off is honest. First-time use needs a working internet connection and takes noticeably longer than later runs because the model has to arrive before anything can happen. The upside is enormous: once the download finishes, your photos, documents, or recordings never travel anywhere. No "we'll just send this to our API real quick" moment, no server-side logging, no risk that a free tier gets rate-limited at the wrong time. No account, no email form, no watermark, no ads.
