Overview
Bulk Video Redaction is the process of blurring and exporting a large number of files all at once! It is particularly crucial for agencies with lengthy videos that necessitate AI-based redaction. For example, Law Enforcement and government agencies that are responsible for protecting sensitive information and delivering crime scene evidence within tight deadlines significantly benefit from this feature!
Similar to utilizing the AI Automatic Redaction feature within CaseGuard Studio, the Bulk Video Redaction has the capability to redact faces, license plates, screens, and so much more from hundreds of video footage in a single operation.
