Watch how Lex Redactus works
A short narrated walkthrough of the full workflow: detect PII in a legal memo, redact it into reversible tokens, use any AI (Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, Grok) safely, and decode the reply back to the real names. PII never leaves your computer unless you allow it. The clip uses a fictional document; no real client data.
Narrated screen recording of the actual app. Captions included.
The workflow, step by step
- 1
Everything runs locally
Lex Redactus works on your computer. PII never leaves your computer unless you allow it.
- 2
Create a matter
Each case gets its own matter, keeping documents, the entity map, and audit history isolated.
- 3
Add a document
Upload a PDF, DOCX, or scanned image, or paste text directly.
- 4
Detect PII locally
One click runs local detection over names, organizations, SSNs, phone numbers, addresses, and case numbers.
- 5
Review the findings
Accept, reject, or add detections by category. Attorney judgment stays in the loop.
- 6
Redact into tokens
Each real value becomes a reversible token like [[PERSON:01]], recorded in the entity map.
- 7
Use any AI safely
Finalize, then paste the tokenized text into Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, or Grok. PII never leaves your computer unless you allow it. Paste-to-AI is that exception.
- 8
Decode the AI's reply
Paste the AI's response (still tokenized) into the decoder, and the tokens turn back into the real names, locally.
PDF Tools
Beyond redaction, Lex Redactus has built-in PDF tools: split a filing into separate exhibits, merge affidavits and exhibits into one paginated packet, and stamp black redaction boxes onto a page. PII never leaves your computer unless you allow it.
