For Big Law and international firms we embed Blackline AI directly into your existing stack — iManage, NetDocuments, Relativity, HighQ or a bespoke DMS. Per-document pricing, transparent volume tiers, a dedicated onboarding lead and an SLA.

  • Just click what should be redacted — no manual boxes needed.
  • AI reads the whole document, including scans and photos (OCR).
  • Export is flattened: no hidden text, nothing recoverable.

Common pain points

  • Thousands of documents per matter for disclosure and e-discovery
  • Strict client confidentiality and privilege rules
  • Embed in DMS / e-discovery / matter management instead of switching tools

How it works

  1. 1Drop a file into the editor — PDF, JPG or PNG.
  2. 2The AI classifies sensitive data automatically.
  3. 3Add or remove redactions by hand if needed.
  4. 4Export a flat PDF — done.

Why Blackline AI

GDPR-friendly by design

Redactions are baked into a flat image — text underneath cannot be recovered.

Saves hours every week

What used to take a black marker and a scanner now takes seconds.
