Post Description

Hey, I made this tool. Pop in a PDF and redact what you need, edit results if needed, etc.

My angle here is that people use it for free and promote to use all other things DocuPipe can do for you.

Why not stick to GPT and be done with it? GPT/Claude doesn't work reliably even remotely, and you can't edit results.

Tool is SOC-2 and ISO certified for infosec, we don't train on your data, etc.
