Recipes

The other sections explain each feature on its own. These recipes put them together for jobs people actually do. Each is a start-to-finish walkthrough with realistic data, linking back to the detail when you want it.

Pick your job

• Anonymize a CV with a photo — text and the headshot, the right way.
• Anonymize an insurance claim (PDF) — names, IDs, a signature, and a stamp, in one Catalan claim letter.
• Anonymize a medical record — a dense clinical document where context decides what’s PII.
• Consistent fake identities across a team — make the same real person always become the same fake person, everywhere.
• Share safely with an LLM and restore — paste into a cloud chat without leaking, then translate the answer back.
• Batch-anonymize invoices — a folder of look-alike invoices, one template, many safe copies.

The pattern underneath all of them

Most recipes are variations on the same five beats:

1. Pick the right mode/model for the data and the goal.
2. Run the document(s).
3. Review and fix in the editor — toggle, edit, add, draw.
4. Capture the repeatable parts as a template and/or a dictionary.
5. Deliver the safe copy — and, if it’s a round trip, restore later.

Once you’ve done one recipe, the rest are mostly the same shape with different knobs.
