Overview
A Watcher, by nature, is designed to monitor and track actions within an application. Within CaseGuard Studio, The Watcher is an advanced AI tool that automatically observes, detects, redacts, and exports your documents! For users needing to consistently redact documents using the AI features, you can do it instantaneously through The Watcher.
While The Watcher can redact unlimited files in minutes, it needs certain rules or criteria to look for when redacting. Once the appropriate operation is defined within the application, the Watcher will start scanning for all the criteria that are met within the operation. Based on the customizable criteria within each of the 7 available operations in the Watcher, you can set up 1 or multiple Watchers.
For example, if you have 100 Resumes with PII such as Name, Phone numbers, and Emails, you can set up the Watcher to Anonymize and run AI Text Analysis at once! With the combination of both these operations and their individual criteria, you can have your documents processed onto your computer within minutes. The speed of the Watcher increases as the number of documents added increases. For users looking to add thousands of documents to Watch, we recommend doing so before your lunch break that way when you come back your documents will be fully redacted and ready to go!
