Local-only · macOS (Apple silicon) & Windows · your bytes never leave the machine
Redaction you can prove.
Most tools draw a black box and leave your data sitting underneath it. Omitly actually removes it — and gives you a verifiable audit trail showing the redacted content is absent from the file you hand over.

One licence · macOS (Apple silicon) & Windows
Windows may say the installer isn’t commonly downloaded — that’s expected for a new release. What to do
A black box is not redaction.
Courts, hospitals and newsrooms have all leaked sensitive data the same way: a rectangle drawn over text that anyone can select, copy, or delete to reveal what's underneath. The data was never removed — just covered.
Omitly treats that as unacceptable. Redacted content is deleted from the file's structure and then verified absent from the output.
Tamper-evident proof that the redacted content is absent from this document — not a determination of legal compliance, and not a claim about your other copies or backups.

Remove. Verify. Prove.
Three steps, every time — the third is the one nobody else does.
Select
Draw over anything — names, account numbers, faces, whole paragraphs. Works on text and images alike.
Remove
Omitly rewrites the PDF's content streams to delete the underlying text and image data — not paint a box over it. Metadata is scrubbed too.
Prove
An independent pass re-scans the output and confirms nothing renders — or survives in the bytes — inside any redacted region. You get a signed audit log.
Built for people who can't afford to get it wrong.
Provable, not cosmetic
Omitly does not draw a rectangle over the text — it deletes the underlying operators from the content stream, so the classic copy-paste-out-from-under failure has nothing left to recover. The selected content is absent from the output document.
An audit trail that holds up
Every redaction is logged with page, region, timestamp, reason and a pass/fail verdict. Defensible when it matters.
Local-only by design
Document bytes never leave your machine. No content telemetry. No cloud round-trip. Air-gap friendly.
A full PDF editor too
Annotate, fill forms, reorder and merge pages. Redaction is the headline, not the whole story.

Use Omitly from Claude
Add one free MCP server and ask Claude "did I actually redact this?" It checks the PDF on your machine and flags any SSNs, emails or account numbers still sitting under the black boxes — masked, and without uploading a thing. Or check it right in your browser with the free leak checker.
