Auto-Redact: Smart Privacy Blur

About

Tired of spending hours in Photoshop or messy image editors trying to blur out usernames, profile pictures, and sensitive data just to share a screenshot?

Auto-Redact is a smart, one-click privacy tool built for OSINT researchers, social media managers, and content creators. Instead of editing your screenshots after you take them, Auto-Redact lets you securely blur out sensitive information directly on the live webpage before you press Print Screen.

Whether you are preparing a case report from a Discord server, sharing a viral Twitter thread without doxxing the replies, or creating a tutorial using your real dashboard, this extension handles the privacy for you instantly.

✨ KEY FEATURES ✨

🎯 The Magic Wand: Click "Enable Wand" and simply click on any text, image, chat bubble, or email address on the screen. The extension instantly applies a sleek, professional CSS blur to that exact element.

🛑 Keyword Blackout: Type a specific word, name, or phone number into the extension. It will instantly hunt down and black out that specific text everywhere it appears on the page.

▶️ Safe-Toggle Revert: Made a mistake or finished taking your screenshot? Hit the "Clear All" button to instantly remove all blurs and return the webpage to normal without having to refresh and lose your place.

HOW TO USE IT:

1. Open the extension when you are on the page you want to screenshot.

2. Choose your mode: Click the "Magic Wand" to manually blur specific items, or type a word into the "Keyword Blackout" box.

3. Take your clean, privacy-safe screenshot using your normal clipping tool!

4. Hit "Clear All" to resume browsing normally.

PRIVACY FIRST & 100% FREE

Auto-Redact operates entirely locally on your browser. It does not track your data, requires no account, and has no ads. It just modifies the visual layout of your screen temporarily to keep your data safe. If it saves you an hour of tedious photo editing, consider using the "Buy Me a Coffee" tip jar in the menu!
