Audio redaction
Use the waveform, manual time ranges, supported masking effects, and transcript context where available to review what should change before you render a new recording.
The listening problem
Names, identifiers, and private details can appear inside a useful statement. A timeline-based workflow lets a reviewer isolate the relevant span and choose an effect without discarding the whole recording.
Review to output
The controls change with the medium. The responsibility to inspect every decision does not.
Load a supported audio file and inspect its waveform, duration, and available transcript context.
Drag or enter the start and end of the sensitive moment on the manual timeline.
Apply a supported effect such as mute, tone, silence, or noise and listen back where preview is available.
Export to a supported format and inspect the new file before it is shared.
Manual-first control
The active end-user path is manual audio redaction. Reviewers place time ranges directly, can adjust their boundaries, and keep the decision attached to the timeline.
Effect choice
Different recordings call for different treatments. OpenRedakt supports several rendered effects, with availability tied to configured media tools.
Transcript context
When a transcript is available, it can sit beside the waveform and help orient review. The public workflow does not present automated transcript analysis or transcript-to-audio alignment as complete or exact.
Supported inputs
Supported decoding and export depend on the FFmpeg build configured with the application. Export choices are narrower than the accepted input list and should be confirmed with representative files.
