Protect Financial Data with AI Redaction
Automatically detect and permanently remove account numbers, SSNs, and sensitive financial details from bank statements, tax documents, and audit reports.
The Financial Data Protection Problem
- Financial institutions handle millions of documents containing account numbers, Social Security numbers, and transaction histories that must be redacted before sharing with third parties, regulators, or during litigation.
- A single exposed account number or SSN can lead to identity theft, regulatory fines under GLBA and state privacy laws, and catastrophic reputational damage that erodes customer trust.
- Regulatory examinations and audits require sharing extensive documentation while protecting customer NPI (Nonpublic Personal Information), creating enormous redaction workloads on tight deadlines.
- Mergers, acquisitions, and due diligence processes generate thousands of financial documents that must be selectively redacted to share with external parties without exposing confidential client data.
- Manual redaction of financial documents is not only slow but dangerous. Traditional PDF tools that merely overlay black boxes leave underlying data extractable, creating a false sense of security.
How AI-Redact Secures Financial Documents
- AI-Redact automatically identifies financial data patterns including account numbers, routing numbers, Social Security numbers, credit card numbers, and transaction amounts across entire document sets.
- Intelligent pattern recognition detects financial identifiers in diverse formats, whether they appear in tables, running text, headers, footers, or embedded forms within your PDFs.
- Permanent redaction removes all underlying data including hidden text layers and document metadata, ensuring that redacted financial information is truly irrecoverable from the output file.
- Batch processing enables your compliance team to redact hundreds of statements, reports, and regulatory filings simultaneously, meeting tight audit and examination deadlines.
- Consistent AI-driven detection eliminates the human variability that leads to missed redactions, providing uniform data protection that satisfies auditors and regulatory examiners.

Financial Redaction Scenarios
Secure document handling for every financial workflow
Bank Statement Redaction
Redact customer bank statements before sharing with external parties during litigation, regulatory inquiries, or verification processes. AI-Redact identifies and removes account numbers, transaction details, balances, and personal identifiers while preserving the statement structure needed for the specific purpose. Process months of statements across multiple accounts in minutes.
Tax Document Processing
Prepare tax returns, W-2s, 1099s, and supporting schedules for sharing with auditors, lenders, or legal counsel. Automatically redact Social Security numbers, Employer Identification Numbers, bank account details, and income figures as needed. Particularly valuable during mortgage origination, business loan underwriting, and tax dispute proceedings.
Audit Report Redaction
Redact internal and external audit reports before distribution to stakeholders with varying access levels. Remove specific client names, account details, and proprietary findings while preserving the analytical conclusions and recommendations. Essential for regulatory examination preparation and board reporting where full detail is not appropriate.
Client Onboarding Documents
Process KYC (Know Your Customer) and CDD (Customer Due Diligence) documentation securely. When onboarding files need to be shared between departments, with compliance reviewers, or during regulatory examinations, AI-Redact removes sensitive personal identifiers while maintaining the verification records needed for BSA/AML compliance.
Testimonials
Trusted by Financial Institutions
“During our last regulatory examination, we needed to produce three years of customer documentation with all NPI redacted. AI-Redact processed over 8,000 pages in a single afternoon. The examiner specifically noted the quality and consistency of our redactions. It saved us weeks of manual work.”
