Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Daniyal. I built RedactLocal because I was tired of the hidden security risks in "free" cloud-based PDF tools. Most web editors process your sensitive documents on their servers and even some client-side tools only draw an invisible SVG box over text, leaving the underlying data vulnerable to simple copy-pasting. RedactLocal is a 100% offline, browser-native PDF redaction suite designed for speed and absolute privacy. Once the page loads, you can turn off your internet completely and work in a sealed room. Key Features Built for Power Users: 1. Auto-Scanning (Find & Redact): Automatically sweeps your documents for sensitive data patterns so you don't have to hunt manually. 2. Custom Stamps & Labels: Instantly apply professional confidentiality tags and custom text labels to your redactions. 3. Bulk & Multi-Page Workflow: Smoothly manage and navigate multi-page documents with zero lag. 4. Permanent Rasterization: Redactions are burned directly into the file pixels—no underlying text can ever be recovered or copied. 5. Zero Network Calls: No cloud uploads, no external AI APIs, and no server logs. Your files never leave your device. I wanted to build something completely frictionless, lightning-fast, and secure enough for legal and financial work. I would love to hear your thoughts on the UI and the automated scanning engine.
