Drop a medical record, insurance claim, or healthcare document into SafeRedact. Your file stays in your browser - it's never uploaded to our servers.
Our AI (powered by Claude) scans for all HIPAA identifiers: patient names, dates of birth, SSNs, addresses, medical record numbers, and more.
See highlighted PHI in your document. Add additional redactions or remove false positives. You're always in control.
Download a clean PDF with permanent, pixel-level redaction. The original PHI is completely removed, not just hidden.
When redacting PHI, how your tool handles files matters as much as the redaction itself.

SafeRedact's architecture is designed for privacy - files never leave your browser, and we only see extracted text. However, we do not currently offer a BAA. If you're a covered entity requiring a BAA, please consult your compliance team.
SafeRedact's AI detects common PHI types including names, addresses, dates, SSNs, MRNs, phone numbers, emails, and account numbers. Organizations should verify detection meets their specific requirements. Biometric identifiers and photographs require manual review as they are non-text elements.
Yes. SafeRedact includes OCR (optical character recognition) to extract text from scanned documents and images. The AI then analyzes the extracted text for PHI.
Yes. SafeRedact creates pixel-level redactions that permanently remove the underlying content. The redacted information cannot be recovered or extracted from the output file.
Compliance Note: SafeRedact is a redaction tool designed to help identify and remove PHI from documents. HIPAA compliance requires comprehensive organizational safeguards including policies, training, access controls, and audit procedures. SafeRedact can be one part of a compliant workflow, but organizations should work with qualified compliance professionals to ensure their complete processes meet regulatory requirements.
