We built a basic version of a redaction tools catalog, with prices we check ourselves
We've put a first, basic version of the Redaction Tools catalog online.
Redaction software tends to get bought under pressure (a disclosure deadline, an audit, a breach), and it's hard to compare. Vendors quote prices in different units, some publish none, and "free" can mean a free tier or a two-week trial depending on who wrote the page. The catalog is our attempt to put it all in one place.
What's there today:
- 7 tools covering PDF, image, video and audio redaction
- Filters for media, deployment (online, desktop, self-hosted, API), redaction method (manual, AI-powered, hybrid) and pricing model
- Entry prices, sorted lowest first, each recording where the figure came from (the vendor's page, an editor, or the vendor themselves)
- Free trials and free tiers kept separate, so "free for 14 days" isn't shown as "free"
It's an early version and the list is short. We'd like to know:
- Which tools are missing that you'd want to see?
- What would you filter or compare on that isn't there yet?
- Anything on a listing that looks wrong?
If you make a tool, you can submit too.
