The redaction editor

Every document, including each one in a project, opens in the same editor. Every finding sits in one list on the left, grouped by category, with a tick: untick what should stay readable, rename a person once for every spelling, search for what the model missed, and preview the result before you approve.

Tick what gets redacted

Every category, entity and variant has a tick. An unticked finding stays in the list, greyed out, but isn’t redacted; on the page it gets a dashed grey outline instead of a solid one. Before, you had to delete a finding to keep it readable.

  • Filter entities narrows the list; press / to jump to it.
  • Hide unredacted shows only what will actually be redacted.
  • Low confidence shows only the findings the model is least sure of.
The entity list reading 20 of 21 redacted, with one address unticked and greyed out, and a dashed outline on the page where it would otherwise be redacted.

One person, every way they are written

An entity collects every variant of a name or spelling under one alias. Open it to tick variants one by one.

  • Drag a variant onto another entity to join them.
  • Drag a variant out of its entity to split it off with its own alias.
An entity opened to show its variants, each ticked, under one alias.

Rename an alias once

Click Edit alias and category on an entity and type the new alias. Every variant follows. A Keep possessive endings switch keeps the possessive on the new alias.

An entity’s edit form open with a new alias, already reflected on its variants below.

Check the result before you approve

Preview (Alt+P) shows the page as it will come out: black bars with the aliases on them, and anything unticked left readable. Approve asks you to confirm first.

A preview of a redacted page: black bars with aliases on them, one address left readable because it was unticked.

Faster with the keyboard

Arrow keys, Home and End move through the list. Space ticks or unticks the current finding, F2 opens the edit form, and Delete removes a redaction you added or unticks one the model found.
