RedactChat - Document Sanitizer for ChatGPT

Intercept and redact, tokenize or delete PII and confidential information from documents before uploading to ChatGPT.

🛡️ Protect Your Privacy When Using ChatGPT with RedactChat 🛡️ RedactChat (*Patent Pending*) is the essential Chrome extension for professionals, legal teams, and anyone who uses ChatGPT with sensitive documents. Our technology creates a mandatory, client-side security layer that ensures Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and confidential information is removed or obscured before your files ever leave your device for the external AI server. The Problem: When you upload documents to ChatGPT, your raw, sensitive data is immediately exposed. The RedactChat Solution: We intercept your upload, give you full control to sanitize the data locally, and only send the scrubbed version to ChatGPT. The original, raw document never leaves your browser. Key Features & Why RedactChat is Your Best Choice 🔒 Mandatory Client-Side Security Workflow Automatic Interception: RedactChat automatically detects and intercepts file uploads and drag-and-drop actions on ChatGPT. It also detects and intercepts large paste actions, giving you the option to either past as is or sanitize before sending to ChatGPT. Zero-Trust Processing: All processing happens locally in your browser. We send No data to external servers or analytics platforms until you have approved the sanitization. Unmatched Privacy: Your raw file content never touches ChatGPT servers. The original content is only in your browser's memory and is scrubbed before transmission. 🧠 Automatic PII Detection Our engine automatically scans your documents to identify and flag common PII, including: Emails and Phone Numbers Physical Addresses and SSNs Credit Cards and IP Addresses Dates of Birth ✨ User-in-the-Loop Sanitization Panel A modal popup appears with a document preview and powerful controls, putting you in charge of the final data payload: Redact (⬛): Replace sensitive data with block characters. Tokenize ([TYPE_N]): Replace data with generic tokens to preserve structure without revealing the content. Delete: Completely remove sensitive information from the text. None: Override the process to upload the file unsanitized. 🌐 Broad AI Platform Support RedactChat can monitor and protect your uploads across major LLM sites starting with ChatGPT: ✅ ChatGPT (chatgpt.com, chat.openai.com) ✅ Claude (claude.ai) ➡️ Coming Soon: Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Perplexity How to Use RedactChat Navigate to a supported AI platform (e.g., ChatGPT).
