About PII Detector

Detector finds and redacts sensitive personal information before you share it. Its AI runs locally in your browser, so the sensitive text you scan is not uploaded for detection. 🔒 🔍 WHAT IT DETECTS • Financial information: credit cards, bank accounts, crypto wallets • Government IDs: SSNs, passports, driver’s licenses • Contact information: emails, phone numbers, addresses • Personal information: names, birth dates, organizations • Custom terms: project codes, customer IDs, internal names, and more • 40+ sensitive-data types across multiple countries 🛡️ PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Detector processes sensitive text locally on your laptop—not in the cloud. After its AI models are downloaded, local detection can work offline. ✨ KEY FEATURES • Custom protected lists for terms unique to you • Smart redaction with clear, reversible placeholders • Review findings before making any changes • Scan and redact DOCX documents • Exclude false positives with one click • Restore redacted values when needed • Organize findings by category and context 🎯 PERFECT FOR • Pasting text into AI assistants more safely • Reviewing documents before sending or publishing • Removing personal information from forms and reports • Privacy, compliance, and data-handling workflows • Protecting customer, employee, and project information You stay in control: Detector identifies what might be sensitive, shows you the evidence, and lets you decide what to redact.
