Built for legal professionals

Your clients' data stays
private when you
use AI.

PrivyMask strips and pseudonymises personally identifiable information from legal documents before they reach any AI tool — then restores the original names in the AI's response. Your document is processed in memory and never stored.

Dear Sarah Thornton,

Pseudonymised — safe for AI
Dear PERSON_A,

Your NI number ID_1 and address at ADDR_1 are on file.

Your document is processed in memory and never stored. The mapping key never leaves your device.

Processing in <2 secondsFaster than manually redacting a single page

Four steps.
Total control throughout.

Unlike black-box redaction tools, you see exactly what's detected and approve every change before processing begins.

01
Upload your document
Drop a PDF, Word doc, or scanned image. OCR handles handwritten or image-based files automatically. Your document is processed in memory and never written to disk.
02
Review detected PII
PrivyMask scans for names, ID numbers, addresses, dates, case references and more. You approve or dismiss each item before anything is replaced.
03
Get clean text + key
Download pseudonymised markdown to paste into Claude or ChatGPT, plus an encrypted mapping key — generated locally, never sent to us.
04
Restore real names
Paste the AI's response back into PrivyMask with your mapping key. Real names are restored automatically — your final output is complete and accurate.
The mapping key is yours alone. It's generated in your browser using AES-256-GCM encryption and downloaded directly to your device. PrivyMask never receives it, cannot access it, and cannot be compelled to produce it. If you lose it, the pseudonyms cannot be reversed — this is a feature, not a limitation.

Built specifically for
legal practice.

Generic anonymisation tools don't know what a case reference number is. PrivyMask does.

Document support
PDF, DOCX & scanned images
Court bundles, client letters, attendance notes, witness statements. Native PDFs, Word files, and scanned documents via OCR — all handled without plugins or installs.
Detection
Comprehensive PII detection
Names, addresses, national ID numbers, postcodes, phone numbers, dates, email addresses, case references — plus natural language names in prose.
Privacy architecture
No data retention
Your document is processed in memory and never written to disk. The mapping key is generated in your browser and never sent to our servers. Nothing is retained after your session ends.
Workflow
Reversible pseudonymisation
Unlike permanent redaction, pseudonyms preserve document meaning. The AI gives you a coherent response. You restore real names in one click. Full round-trip workflow.
Professional control
Human review step
You approve every detected entity before processing. Confidence scores surface borderline detections. You can add missed items manually. No silent replacements, ever.
Coverage
Global PII categories
UK, US, EU, Australian, Indian and Singaporean identifiers — NI numbers, SSNs, postcodes, TFNs, Aadhaar and more. Plus Article 9 sensitive categories: health, religion, political affiliation, criminal allegations.
