Easy to Redact Sensitive Information

Privacy Protection Starts with AI-Powered Redaction

Sighthound Redactor makes it easy to automatically redact sensitive information in videos, images, and audio with speed, accuracy, and no cloud risk.
Surveillance is everywhere; in law enforcement, transit systems, workplaces, and public spaces. But without proper redaction, every frame can become a legal and ethical liability.

Redactor gives you full control over what stays visible, and what gets anonymized. It helps you respond to FOIA requests, meet GDPR or CCPA compliance, or prepare footage for public release.

"We didn’t realize how much we needed Sighthound’s Redactor until it was installed. It has been a great tool for providing insight to parents when their child is involved in a discipline issue; our ability to share the footage of the incident and isolate just their child’s image has been a game changer for those tough conversations. We did not have this option with our current system and are so happy at how simple it is to use."
