Redacted for Mac

The private redaction tool you know from the browser, rebuilt as a native Mac app. Local AI finds the sensitive parts, batch workflows clear whole folders, and nothing — not one pixel — ever leaves your Mac.

Early access users get the Mac app free, forever. No spam — one email when it ships.

01 — Capabilities

Everything local.
Nothing leaked.

/01

Local AI detection

On-device models spot faces and sensitive text for you. All inference runs on your Mac.

/02

Batch workflows

Drop in a folder and redact a whole stack of files in one pass instead of one by one.

/03

Offline-first

Works with the Wi-Fi off. There is no server side, so there is nothing to upload to.

/04

Every redaction style

Black bar, blur, pixelate, or emoji — the same styles you use on redacted.app today.

/05

Metadata stripped

EXIF, GPS, and location data are removed on export, just like in the web app.

/06

No account, no tracking

No sign-in, no cookies, no analytics following you around. Open it and work.

03 — Questions

Asked & answered.

When does it launch?

The Mac app is in active development. Waitlist members get the first builds and a launch email — that's it.

What will it cost?

If you join the early-access waitlist, the Mac app is free for you forever. Pricing for everyone else comes later.

Is the web app going away?

No. redacted.app stays free and works in any browser, on desktop and mobile.

Does the Mac app upload anything?

No. Like the web version, all processing happens on your machine. The AI models run locally too.
