Overview
The Watcher is an advanced, automated AI tool that automatically observes, detects, redacts, and exports your documents, without manual input! For teams that need to perform high-volume document redaction, the Watcher provides a fast, scalable way to automate entire batches of files using AI.
This tool works especially well for users who frequently process large quantities of documents using CaseGuard’s automated document redaction software. The Watcher requires certain rules or criteria to look for when redacting. After the operation is set, the Watcher automatically scans every incoming document, detects the specified patterns, and applies document redaction instantly.
You can create one or multiple Watchers, depending on the number of workflows you want to automate. Each Watcher uses one or more of the seven available AI operations, allowing you to combine features such as anonymization, PII detection, and text analysis.
For example, if you have 100 resumes containing PII such as names, phone numbers, and emails, you can set the Watcher to anonymize the files and run AI text analysis at the same time. All documents will be fully redacted and exported within minutes. The speed of the Watcher increases as the number of documents added increases. For users planning to process thousands of documents, we recommend setting the Watcher before lunch and your batch will be fully redacted and ready to go when you return.
