Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Document Redactor is a web-based service for organizations processing GDPR requests, DSARs, and other sensitive documents. It combines OCR for scanned PDFs and photographed paperwork with automated PII detection across 19 entity types. Teams can review detected findings, approve them selectively, add manual redaction boxes, and process multiple files through batch pipelines. Supported inputs include PDF, DOC, DOCX, and ODT, with automatic deletion of completed files after two hours.

Pricing is structured around document credits and paid subscriptions. Lite costs €7 per month or €84 per year and includes unlimited redaction profiles, local AI automated mode, manual redaction, auto categorization, and email support. Basic costs €21 per month or €252 per year and adds a priority job queue. Enterprise costs €70 per month or €840 per year and adds priority support and auditing sessions. Enterprise+ costs €350 per month or €4,200 per year, adding highest priority support, dedicated onboarding, cloud or self-managed deployment, and cloud regional data sovereignty.

The product’s main strength is focused document handling rather than broad platform coverage: OCR, automated detection, review, profiles, categorization, batching, and ZIP output address a practical redaction workflow in one web service. Its 10 MB maximum file size and document-oriented format support make it a better fit for smaller files and PDF-heavy work than large or varied content repositories. Choose Document Redactor when low entry pricing, European hosting, and workflow-focused redaction matter. Organizations needing larger files, broader formats, or advanced compliance tooling should consider an alternative.
