1. Capture or import
Open a screenshot, paste an image, drag it in, use Redaktr Capture, or let Redaktr watch a selected screenshot folder.
AI sharing workflow
Redact screenshots before they reach ChatGPT or Claude.
AI chats are useful, but screenshots often carry terminal secrets, customer data, private account IDs, notifications, faces, and QR codes. Redaktr gives Mac users a local review step before paste, whether the next destination is a ChatGPT screenshot prompt, a Claude screenshot conversation, Slack, email, or a support ticket.
A safer screenshot workflow
2. Review possible leaks
Redaktr scans locally for API keys, tokens, emails, phone numbers, faces, QR codes, and policy terms.
3. Paste the clean copy
Copy or export a flattened redacted image, then paste that cleaned copy into ChatGPT, Claude, Slack, email, a ticket, or docs.
Why AI screenshot sharing needs a safety step
A screenshot can carry more context than you meant to send. Terminal windows show API keys and URL tokens. Dashboards show customer data and internal metrics. Browser sidebars show names, emails, account IDs, and notifications. QR codes can hide links or contact data. Once an AI screenshot is uploaded or pasted, you have to assume the sensitive data left your local workflow.
Redaktr does not try to monitor ChatGPT, Claude, Slack, email, or your browser. It works before that point: scan the image locally, review possible leaks, create a clean copy, then paste only the cleaned screenshot into the AI or collaboration tool.
Common leaks before ChatGPT or Claude
Developer screenshots
API keys, bearer tokens, JWTs, .env values, URL query tokens, IP addresses, customer IDs, and terminal paths.
Support screenshots
Customer emails, phone numbers, account IDs, billing details, ticket context, private tags, and internal notes.
Public demos
Faces, notifications, browser profiles, private metrics, company names, client domains, and QR codes.
