Bulk PII redaction for entire PDF folders
Manual redaction does not scale when you have dozens of bank statements, HR files, or discovery documents. PII Blackout supports bulk PII redaction: drop a folder, set detection rules once, review matches, and export redacted copies—all offline on your desktop.
Built for volume
- Process multiple PDFs and subfolders in one run
- Same PII rules applied consistently across every file
- Ideal for e-discovery prep, FOIA responses, and client file batches
- Reduce human error vs. opening files one by one in Adobe
Review before you commit
Bulk automation is only safe with a preview step. Step 1 analyzes all files and highlights detected PII; you keep, deselect, or add manual redaction boxes before Step 2 permanently applies blackout. See also offline PII removal for why local processing matters.
