The real review pane, running here in your browser on a sample contract. Click a highlight to keep or redact it, select any text to add your own, press Anonymize — then send it to the AI and put the real names back.

  1. Anonymize

    Occlira highlights the names, IDs, emails and account numbers it found. You approve each one — nothing changes until you do.

  2. Work in the AI

    Paste or attach the anonymized copy anywhere: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Word. The model sees <PERSON_1> in place of every name you replaced.

  3. Restore

    Bring the answer back and the real values slot straight in. No find-and-replace, no second pass.

~97% on the benchmark — and you confirm every replacement

A multilingual AI model works alongside checksum-validated patterns, and a legal-boilerplate filter is designed to leave statutes, courts and country names alone. Nothing is changed until you approve it, and you can add anything the model missed.

  • Checksum validation for IBANs, cards and national IDs
  • Reads EN, DE, FR, IT, RU, NL and ES
  • Your own always-remove and never-remove term lists

What it handles

The files a client actually sends you.

Close-up of the Occlira review screen: lines of a share purchase agreement with the detected company names, law firm and postal address highlighted in colour, each one clickable to keep or redact.

Documents, spreadsheets & email

Contracts, statements, exports, .eml threads — even scanned PDFs, read on your device. Formatting survives; hidden metadata and tracked changes don’t.

Reversible placeholders · OCR for scans · true PDF redaction that deletes the text underneath, not just covers it

Close-up of the Occlira audio screen: a recorded call transcript with the caller names, a date of birth and a card number highlighted, above a Fine-tune beeps control showing eleven spans queued for bleeping.

Calls & recordings

Interviews, depositions and client calls transcribed on your own machine and split by speaker, with spoken names and numbers bleeped in the track itself.

Close-up of the Occlira photo screen: runners in a marathon photo with their faces detected, numbered and pixelated so they cannot be recognised.

Photos & scans

Faces found and blurred locally — blur, mosaic or a solid box — plus a manual box for anything the detector missed.

Why Occlira

Why not a cloud tool, or just do it by hand?

Each of these does one part of the job well. Here is the honest split.

  Occlira Cloud / online tools By hand (PDF tools)
Runs on your device — no upload, no account
Restore the originals after the AI answers Varies ✗ permanent
Documents, audio and photos in one app Rarely
Pay once One-time license Subscription / per-GB Subscription

Most cloud tools send the client’s file off your machine and bill by the month. Doing it by hand is one-way: you work format by format, and the original values are gone. Occlira keeps the work on your machine — and hands the originals back when you’re done.

Frequently asked questions

You see every finding before anything changes, and you can select any text the model didn’t flag and add it yourself. Detection is measured rather than promised: ~97% of sensitive values on a public legal-document benchmark, with contact and financial identifiers close to 100%.

No. Detection, anonymization and restore all run on your device. The only network calls the app makes are license checks, the one-time detection-model download, update checks and optional diagnostics — never your files and never your text.

Yes. Placeholders are consistent — <PERSON_1> is the same person from the first page to the last — so the structure and meaning of the document survive. Restore then swaps the real values back into the AI’s answer, on your machine.

Documents, spreadsheets and email (DOCX, PDF, XLSX, EML, TXT, MD, CSV), audio (MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG) and images (JPG, PNG, HEIC, WEBP, TIFF, BMP). It also plugs into Chrome for ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, into Microsoft Word, and into Claude Desktop.

Both — Windows 10/11 (64-bit) and macOS on Apple Silicon. One license activates one device; deactivate to move to another machine.

Neither. Download it and the complete app runs free for 14 days — no sign-up, no license key, no card. The trial is anchored to your device, so reinstalling won’t reset it.

No. Occlira is a one-time purchase — a perpetual license with free updates within the major version. It is node-locked to a single device, and you deactivate it to move machines.
