Hi Product Hunt! I’m the maker of RedactGo. 👋 I built it after noticing how often people “redact” a PDF by placing a black rectangle over sensitive information. That may hide the content visually without removing the text or objects stored inside the file. RedactGo creates a new redacted PDF directly in the browser. You can mark multiple areas, redact a whole page, undo changes, and inspect the actual generated output before downloading it. The PDF is not uploaded to a document-processing server, and there is no signup, daily limit, or watermark. One principle guided the development: failure should look like failure. If RedactGo detects a complex PDF it cannot safely process, it rejects the file instead of producing a download that only appears successful. RedactGo is currently focused on doing one job clearly and honestly. I’d especially appreciate feedback on the editing workflow, output review experience, and compatibility with different PDF files. Thanks for taking a look!
