You don't need complicated software to effectively censor text. Pixelcut’s tool works with simple, conversational instructions. Just tell the AI what to do, like 'blur the credit card number' or 'black out the signature.' You can specify the style of redaction, whether you prefer a solid black bar for total concealment, a blur effect for a softer look, or pixelation. This level of control means you get accurate results that fit your needs, all without navigating complex menus or manual selection tools.
