Investor-deck redaction is the removal of PII from pitch slides. It supports anonymous sharing under GDPR Recital 26. anonym.plus runs locally and keeps the metrics and story that the deck is built to tell.
When this applies
A pitch deck names the team, customers, and contacts in its slides and notes. For a wider circulation, clear those people but keep the metrics.
How anonym.plus handles it
- Load the deck into anonym.plus on your device.
- It scans slide text and speaker notes for names.
- Metrics, charts, and the story stay in place.
- Swap or black out the confirmed PII.
- Save the clean file on your device.
What you need to provide
- The deck (PPTX, PDF, or export).
- An operator (Replace keeps the slides readable).
- Optional allow-list to keep brand terms.

Limitations & cautions
A named-customer logo can re-identify even after the text goes. Image logos may slip past a text scan, so review embedded graphics by hand before you circulate the slides.
