Redactable review
A cost-conscious PDF redaction tool with OCR, automation, and audit controls.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Redactable is a cloud-based document redaction platform for legal teams, law firms, and organizations handling sensitive records. It supports uploads of PDF, TIFF, PNG, and JPG files through a web application, with API availability for connected workflows. Its central use case is preparing redacted PDF documents from digital, scanned, or image-based records. AI-assisted detection identifies names, dates, personally identifiable information, and privilege markers, while manual, category-based, and search-based tools give reviewers additional control.
The paid plans are structured around user-based subscriptions. Starter costs $23 per user per month with monthly billing or $19 per user per month with annual billing. Both listed Starter options include AI-powered redaction, OCR for scanned documents, unlimited pages per document, redaction certificates, and audit logs. Pro Plus costs $99 per user per month monthly or $79 per user per month annually, with the same listed highlights. An Enterprise plan adds high-volume redactions, unlimited OCR processing, single sign-on, and priority support. A free plan is also available, making the product easier to evaluate before committing to a paid tier.
Redactable's strongest fit is PDF-centered legal work that needs repeatable redaction and evidence of processing. Batch uploads, custom redaction lists, category templates, privilege log generation with CSV export, role-based permissions, collaboration, and permanent metadata removal extend the workflow beyond simply covering text. The private-cloud deployment and audit features suit teams handling sensitive records, while OCR helps with scanned material. Choose it when redaction is the primary requirement and PDF production is acceptable. Teams seeking a broader end-to-end eDiscovery review environment should consider a product with a wider discovery focus.
