Frequently asked questions about FOI anonymization

What data does Anonify detect in FOI files?

Anonify detects names, IDs, emails, phone numbers, and addresses. The reviewer always makes the final redaction decision.

Can I manually verify AI suggestions?

Yes. Every suggestion can be accepted or rejected. Final responsibility stays with your reviewer.

Is there an audit trail per change?

Redaction and export decisions are recorded in an audit log: who, when, which decision and which Woo ground, without the document text itself. Admins see the overview per organisation and can export it as CSV. Logging starts from when this feature went live.

Which file types are supported?

Upload PDF documents; convert Word or Excel files to PDF first. Check and correct AI suggestions before export.
