Rules catch structured details, built-in NER adds people, places and organizations. An additional local AI check is only added if you switch it on.
Regex
Email addresses, phone numbers, dates, IBANs and other identifiers. Define your own terms or deliberately exclude them.
NER, built in
Named entity recognition finds people, places and organizations – without internet access or extra software.
Local AI, optional
Set up a small model directly in the app or connect an existing Ollama or LM Studio installation. Regex and NER work without it.
Tray, editor, shortcut
Ctrl + Shift + A anonymizes copied text. The editor shows the original and the result side by side.
Safeguard
If you choose, checks the clipboard locally for sensitive details and alerts you to what it finds.
Restoration
Map placeholders from the last session back, for example after an AI tool edited the text. The mapping stays in memory for five minutes at most.

How does restoration work on Windows?
When enabled, placeholders from the last session can be mapped back to the original details. The mapping is held in memory only, for five minutes at most.
Can the Windows app anonymize images and screenshots?
No. The current Windows version processes text. The image and screenshot features of the Apple apps are not automatically part of the Windows app.
Is the Mac app included?
No. The Windows app is a separate one-time purchase on the Microsoft Store. The Mac and iOS apps are purchased separately.
