Translate sensitive documents without exposing sensitive data. Veil Translate parses DOCX/XLSX files locally, masks names, IDs, phone numbers and other detected PII before sending only the masked text to your chosen translation provider. The original layout is preserved, your files never touch our servers, and you can bring your own API key.
👋 Hi Product Hunt!
I'm excited to share Veil Translate, a privacy-first document translation tool.
The idea came from a simple concern: many translation tools require uploading entire documents to their servers, even when those documents contain names, IDs, phone numbers, or other sensitive information.
With Veil Translate, we take a different approach:
🔒 Documents are parsed locally in your browser
🛡️ Detected sensitive information is masked before translation
📄 The original document layout is preserved
🔑 You can use your own translation API key, and our server never handles your document
Our goal isn't to replace translation models—it's to make using them safer for sensitive documents.
We're still early, and I'd really appreciate your feedback.
Some questions I'd love your thoughts on:
Would local PII masking make you more comfortable using AI translation?
Which document formats or translation providers should we support next?
Are there any privacy concerns we haven't considered?
Thanks for checking out Veil Translate! Every suggestion helps us improve. ❤️
