What’s in RedactBox
New
People Detection
RedactBox lists the people it finds in your documents. Redact someone once and they’re redacted everywhere they appear.
How People Detection works
Search & Redact
Find a name, phrase or number and redact every match across the project.
Duplicate Detection
Sent and Inbox exports overlap. RedactBox finds the copies so you redact each email once.
Word Lists
Save the names that keep coming up and redact the whole list in one go.
Multi-Format Processing
MBOX, PST, EML, MSG and PDF in one project.
Audit Trail
Every redaction is logged with who made it, when and why. Each export includes a Schedule of Redactions.
Project Sharing
Invite colleagues as editors or viewers and see who’s working on which item.
