Screenshots of BlurData for Windows on fictional test documents.

Personal data found on its own

Open a PDF, a scan, a photo or a screenshot: names, addresses, account numbers, emails and phone numbers are marked in seconds, each type in its own color. BlurData recognizes common documents, like medical records, invoices, bank statements and payslips, and applies the matching preset, with Undo if you disagree.

A fictional medical record: the preset is recognized and 22 items are found.

Labels for AI Pro

For documents you want an AI assistant or a colleague to work on. Every person, address or number becomes a consistent label like [PERSON_1] or [ADDRESS_2] across all open documents, so the text still makes sense. The Entities map lets you merge or split people before you export.

Scans and photos are read with the text recognition built into Windows, in the languages installed on your PC. If none is installed, the app tells you how to add one.

Covered for real, not just hidden

A black box drawn over a PDF often leaves the text underneath, and anyone can copy it out. When BlurData exports with black boxes, the covered text is removed from the file. The exported pages are images, so there is nothing left to copy or search.

Got an old redacted PDF?

Check for free if the text under the black bars is really gone. The check runs in your browser and the file is not uploaded.
