Como Funciona a anonym.legal
Detecção de PII determinística baseada em regex que fornece resultados 100% reproduzíveis. Mesmo input, mesmo output—todas as vezes. Sem IA, sem adivinhações, apenas correspondência de padrões transparente.
How Does PII Detection Work?
PII detection identifies personal data in text using pattern matching and machine learning. anonym.legal uses a hybrid approach:
- 1Pattern Matching: Regex patterns detect structured data (SSNs, credit cards, IBANs) with checksum validation.
- 2Named Entity Recognition: NER models identify names, locations, and organizations in 48 languages.
- 3Context Scoring: Each detection is scored based on surrounding context to minimize false positives.
This hybrid approach detects 285+ entity types while maintaining deterministic, reproducible results — essential for compliance and legal discovery.

O Processo em 10 Etapas
Do input ao output, aqui está exatamente o que acontece com seu documento
Texto de Entrada
Envie seu documento via interface web, API ou Add-in do Office
Detecção de Idioma
O sistema identifica o idioma do documento para processamento ideal
Tokenização
O texto é dividido em tokens para correspondência de padrões
Correspondência de Padrões
Padrões regex escaneiam mais de 50 tipos de entidades
Análise de Contexto
Texto circundante melhora a precisão da detecção
Pontuação de Confiança
Cada detecção recebe uma pontuação de confiança
Classificação de Entidades
Itens detectados são categorizados por tipo

Frequently Asked Questions
Why use regex instead of AI for PII detection?
Regex-based detection is deterministic and reproducible. The same input always produces the same output. AI/ML models can be unpredictable and may miss or falsely flag data. For compliance, reproducibility matters.
How accurate is the detection?
Our hybrid approach combines regex patterns with Named Entity Recognition (NER) for high accuracy. All patterns include checksum validation where applicable (credit cards, IBANs, SSNs). False positives are minimized through context-aware scoring.
What happens to my data during processing?
Text is sent to our EU-hosted servers (Hetzner, Germany) over TLS 1.3 for analysis. We don't store your data after processing. With Zero-Knowledge auth, we can't even identify which user made the request.
Can I add custom entity types?
Yes! You can create custom recognizers with your own regex patterns and context words. Custom entities support the same operators (replace, mask, hash, encrypt, redact) as built-in types.
How does reversible encryption work?
The Encrypt operator uses AES-256-GCM encryption with your key. Only you can decrypt. This allows re-identification for audits or legal discovery while keeping data protected in transit and storage.

How we test
We run a full check suite on every release.
Each surface gets its own sweep script and report.
Human reviewers spot-check the output each week.
We track recall and precision on a labelled set.
Bad runs block the deploy.
What we never do
- We never sell your information to third parties.
- We never train models on what you upload.
- We never keep your work after you delete it.
- We never share keys with any outside firm.
- We never run ads inside the product.
Plans in plain words
We sell credits, not seats.
One credit covers one short job.
Long jobs use a few credits each.
You can top up at any time.
Unused credits roll over each month.
Read the plans page for current rates.
Who built this
A small team of engineers and lawyers built this.
We ship from Europe and work in the open.
Our founder note spells out why we started.
Where to start
- Open the web app and try a sample file.
- Learn how credits get counted.
- See current plans and limits.

How the parts fit
A browser add-on cleans text inside Chrome.
A Word plug-in handles drafts in Office.
A small desktop tool works on whole folders.
An agent protocol link feeds large models safely.
All four share one core engine and one rule set.
Words from our team
We started this work after a lunch about cookies.
One friend kept getting odd ads on her phone.
We asked why a court file leaked through a draft.
We sketched the first build on a napkin that week.
By month three we had a tiny demo for a friend.
She used it on her first case the next day.
Common questions we hear
Can the tool read scanned PDFs? Yes, with OCR.
Does it work on long files? Yes, in small chunks.
Can I roll my own rule set? Yes, save it as a preset.
Does it run offline? The desktop build runs offline.
Do you keep my files? No, the cloud build wipes after each run.
Will it learn from my work? No, we never train on inputs.
