Workflow

From intake to export, the file stays local.

Five verifiable steps, no black-box automation.

01

Open document

Open a PDF or scan in Datenmaske — everything after that runs locally on the Windows workstation.

02

Detect sensitive passages

Rule-based detection and local models flag names, addresses, IBANs and other personal data.

03

Review the matches

Every suggestion stays under human control. Recurring entities can be reviewed together; manual regions remain available.

04

Redact permanently

Confirmed passages are removed from the document — not merely covered. The text beneath disappears from the file.

05

Export verified

MuPDF removes confirmed content. Secure reopens the result and refuses the export if the check reveals a gap.

§ 203 StGB

Trust is enforced here by design.

Secure doesn't rely on a promise but on a verifiable local architecture.

Document path without network

PDF pages, OCR text, findings, and redactions stay on the device.

Signed detection models

Revision, size, and SHA-256 are checked against an Ed25519-signed manifest.

Fail closed

An incomplete verification is not a warning — it's an export block.

File-grade evidence

The redaction log records status, data types, and file hashes.

Editionen

A clear line between local and hosted.

Not every file belongs in a cloud. That's why Secure is the main product — and Web is deliberately the complementary edition.

Main product Secure

For professional secrets, patient files, client documents, and large document collections. Processing on Windows workstations, with local models and a verifiable export block.

Fragen & Antworten

Questions before your first local run.

01 Do documents or detected content leave my machine? +

No. In Datenmaske Secure, PDF processing, OCR, detection, review, and redaction run locally on the workstation. An internet connection may be needed for license checks and the optional model download; document content is not transmitted in the process.

02 What's the difference between Secure and Web? +

Secure is the local desktop edition for confidential files and professional secrets. Datenmaske Web is the EU-hosted self-service for vetted use cases, collaboration, and API workflows. The free web demo is a good way to learn the workflow — not for content that must stay local.

03 Is the redaction really permanent? +

Confirmed passages are removed from the PDF content with MuPDF, not just covered. The output file is then reopened and checked. If this verification fails, Secure refuses the export.

04 Who is Datenmaske Secure for? +

Primarily for lawyers, notaries, tax advisors, auditors, doctors, psychotherapists, and their teams. Secure is especially suited to voluminous files, recurring individuals, and workstations where documents must not leave the device.

05 What does Datenmaske cost? +

During Early Access, Datenmaske is free to use: the Web edition with all features, and Datenmaske Secure as a 7-day test licence. Final prices will be published here at launch — no automatic charges, no hidden renewals.

06 How do I get access? +

Sign up for the Secure Early Access and confirm your email address — your 7-day test license arrives by email. The signed installers are openly available on the download page.
