Redact Bank Statements Securely
Protect your financial privacy before sharing bank statements with landlords, lenders, employers, or government agencies. AI-Redact automatically detects and permanently removes account numbers, balances, transaction details, and personal information.
The Risk of Sharing Unredacted Bank Statements
- Landlords, lenders, and employers routinely ask for bank statements as proof of income — but those statements expose your full account number, routing number, and every transaction you have made.
- Manually blacking out information with a PDF editor is slow, inconsistent, and risky. Miss one account number on a multi-page statement and your financial identity is compromised.
- Sending unredacted bank statements over email or upload portals means your complete financial history sits on servers you do not control, often indefinitely.
- Identity thieves can use bank account numbers, routing numbers, and transaction patterns from stolen statements to commit wire fraud, ACH fraud, or social engineering attacks.
- Many people share statements with real estate agents, visa officers, or accountants without realizing how much exploitable data a single bank statement contains.
How AI-Redact Protects Your Finances
- AI-Redact is trained to recognize the specific data patterns found in bank statements — account numbers, routing numbers, balances, transaction amounts, and running totals — and flags them all automatically.
- One-click redaction removes every instance of sensitive financial data across all pages. No need to comb through each page manually.
- Your bank statement is processed in real time and never stored. The original and redacted versions are not retained on any server after you download your file.
- Redaction is permanent and irreversible. The underlying data is removed from the PDF, not merely hidden behind a visual overlay. Nobody can extract the original numbers.
- The redacted statement still clearly shows the information you want to share — such as monthly income totals or deposit dates — while protecting everything else.

Balance Redaction
Opening balances, closing balances, daily balances, and running totals are identified and can be selectively redacted while preserving the statement structure.
Transaction Detail Protection
Individual transaction descriptions, amounts, merchant names, and reference numbers are detected. Redact everything or keep specific categories visible for proof-of-income purposes.
Name and Address Removal
Account holder names, mailing addresses, and joint account holder information displayed on the statement header are automatically flagged for redaction.
Multi-Page Statement Support
Bank statements often span many pages with repeated headers and footers containing sensitive data. AI-Redact processes every page and catches data in headers, footers, and summary sections.
