Sighthound Redactor

Redact Videos, Images & Audio in Minutes

Sighthound Redactor helps security teams and government agencies protect sensitive data with AI-powered redaction; fast, accurate, and fully under your control.

Privacy Protection Starts with AI-Powered Redaction

Sighthound Redactor makes it easy to automatically redact sensitive information in videos, images, and audio with speed, accuracy, and no cloud risk.

Surveillance is everywhere; in law enforcement, transit systems, workplaces, and public spaces. But without proper redaction, every frame can become a legal and ethical liability.

Redactor gives you full control over what stays visible, and what gets anonymized. It helps you respond to FOIA requests, meet GDPR or CCPA compliance, or prepare footage for public release.
