LLM-Powered Detection
Context-aware AI finds PII that regex and rules miss. Names, relationships, embedded references that span across pages and tables.
Piixie is the only local AI-driven anonymizer that runs entirely on your machine. No cloud uploads. No data leaks. Just intelligent, LLM-powered privacy protection for every file type.
You use LLMs to get work done. You should not have to paste raw PII into someone else's service. Piixie strips private data on your machine so you send only what you intend.
Context-aware AI finds PII that regex and rules miss. Names, relationships, embedded references that span across pages and tables.
PDFs, DOCX, spreadsheets, images, databases, plain text, JSON, XML, emails. One tool handles them all with the same intelligent pipeline.
Everything runs locally. No cloud uploads, no API calls to external services unless you choose. Deploy standalone, on-premise, or with your own LLM.
The same patient intake form, anonymized by Piixie on a laptop. Pick a mode, then drag the divider to compare it with the original.

Real output from the Piixie app with its local Medium model. The form and everyone on it are fictional. Read more about redaction and placeholders or synthetic data.
One pipeline handles text, structured data, images, and documents. Vision-capable LLM means no separate OCR step needed.
And more formats on the roadmap. Piixie aims to support every file type that contains PII.
CSV, Excel and SQL dumps get a plan per column. Piixie recognizes names, emails, phones, birth dates and addresses, then regenerates every cell in code instead of asking a model to rewrite each row.
The same pipeline runs on the desktop, at the command line, and on a shared server. Every step happens on your machine.

From healthcare to fintech, Piixie adapts to the compliance requirements of every regulated sector.
HIPAA-compliant anonymization of patient records, clinical notes, lab results, and insurance claims. Local processing means PHI never leaves the facility.
Anonymize transaction logs, account statements, credit reports, and financial models. Meet PCI DSS and SOX requirements without cloud exposure.
Protect attorney-client privilege in contracts, depositions, court filings, and case files. Share redacted versions with opposing counsel safely.
Redact classified information, citizen records, and sensitive intelligence before inter-agency sharing or public records requests.
Process claims, underwriting documents, and policy records. Strip policyholder PII for actuarial analysis and fraud detection models.
Sanitize training datasets, customer support logs, and product telemetry. Build AI/ML models without leaking user data into the pipeline.
Piixie's local-first architecture is built from the ground up to meet global data protection requirements.

"We evaluated every anonymization tool on the market. Piixie was the only one that kept patient data entirely on our HIPAA-compliant servers. No cloud risk, no compliance headaches."
"Piixie cut our data prep time by 80%. We used to manually scrub PII from training datasets. Now the LLM-powered detection catches things our regex rules never did."
"Attorney-client privilege is non-negotiable. Piixie lets us share redacted case files with expert witnesses without any risk of the underlying PII leaking through a cloud service."
"We run Piixie on air-gapped networks for classified document processing. The fact that it works fully offline with a local LLM is exactly what government agencies need."
"The synthetic data mode is a game changer. We generate test fixtures that look real but contain zero actual customer data. QA loves it and compliance signed off instantly."
"GDPR audits used to terrify us. Now we run every customer-facing document through Piixie before it touches any external tool. Our DPO calls it the best investment we made this year."
"We pipe 10,000 documents a day through Piixie's CLI. The batch automation and server mode handle our volume without breaking a sweat. Setup took less than an hour."
"The quality of Piixie's synthetic data surprised us. It preserves document structure and relationships while every piece of PII is replaced with coherent fake data. Our ML team uses it daily."
