RedactRay

RedactRay is a web + desktop app that ingests PDFs and scanned images, runs OCR, and automatically detects sensitive fields (SSNs, bank accounts, medical IDs, addresses, signatures) for redaction before sharing. Users can set policy templates (HIPAA-style, legal discovery, HR onboarding) and get a preview with confidence highlights, then export a sanitized PDF plus an audit log showing what was removed and why. It’s an AI app combined with traditional rules: AI proposes detections, while deterministic patterns and allowlists prevent obvious mistakes. The core value is speed and defensibility—teams can redact hundreds of pages quickly without outsourcing, while keeping a traceable record for compliance. Realistically, accuracy won’t be perfect on messy scans, so the workflow is built around rapid human review, keyboard shortcuts, and batch operations rather than “one-click magic.”
