License Plate Redaction with AI-Powered Redaction Software
License plates identify vehicle owners. Privacy laws classify them as PII that must be redacted before footage is shared externally. VIDIZMO Redactor detects plates across surveillance, dashcam, body camera, and drone footage and redacts them at scale.
License Plates in Every Recording. Manual Redaction Does Not Scale
Surveillance systems, fleet dashcams, body cameras, and drones capture license plates continuously across thousands of recordings. Plates are PII tied to vehicle owners. Regulations require them to be redacted before footage is disclosed, shared, or archived. At organizational volume, manual frame-by-frame plate redaction is not feasible.
Speed and motion
Plates on moving vehicles appear blurred, stretched, or partially visible. Detection must handle moving targets across frames, not just stationary vehicles.
Distance and angle
Plates are captured at road level, from overhead, and at sharp angles. Characters become small and distorted at distance. Detection must read them in all conditions.
Lighting and weather
Glare, shadows, headlights, rain, and low light all affect plate visibility. Real outdoor footage is not clean studio imagery.
International plate formats
Plate sizes, character layouts, colors, and fonts differ by country and region. Detection must recognize plates regardless of format or origin.
Automatic detection across the full recording
AI scans every frame and identifies all visible plates regardless of angle, distance, speed, or lighting. No manual selection or frame-by-frame marking required.
Consistent tracking across frames
Once a plate is detected, the mask stays on it as the vehicle moves through the scene. No flickering, no gaps, no missed frames.
Selective plate redaction
Choose which plates to redact and which to keep visible. In law enforcement footage, the involved vehicle's plate may need to stay visible while all surrounding plates are masked.
Works on video and images
Plates detected and redacted in video footage and still images. Surveillance exports, drone captures, property photos, and screenshots all supported.
Bulk processing
Upload hundreds of files into a single batch. Detection settings configured once, applied across all files. No per-file manual work.
Multiple masking styles
Blur, pixelation, black box, or custom overlay. Choose the style that fits the disclosure or publication requirement.
Public records and FOIA releases
Body camera, dashcam, and surveillance footage released under public records laws must have uninvolved vehicle plates redacted before disclosure.
Insurance claims and litigation
Collision and incident footage shared with insurers, attorneys, and courts contains plates of uninvolved vehicles that must be masked.
Surveillance and security footage sharing
CCTV and parking lot footage shared for incident reports, investigations, or data subject requests contains plates on every passing vehicle.
