Anonymize and pseudonymize client documents without sending them to the cloud.

Yes. Celatum is designed around the local-processing principle: documents are processed directly on the user’s device, and their content is never transmitted, stored, or logged on external servers. This approach reduces the risk of data exposure and supports compliance with the principles of data minimisation, purpose limitation, and security of processing under the Federal Act on Data Protection (in particular Art. 6 and 8 FADP), as well as the corresponding GDPR principles, including Art. 5 and 32.

Cloud LLMs normally require sending the original document content to third-party servers. When the document contains personal data, confidential information, or material covered by professional secrecy, this step can carry significant risks under the FADP and, for certain professions, also with respect to the professional secrecy obligations of Art. 321 of the Swiss Criminal Code. Celatum takes a different approach: personal identifier detection happens locally, without the document ever having to leave the user’s device or infrastructure. In practical terms, cloud LLMs can be useful for drafting, summarising, or rephrasing non-sensitive content. Celatum, by contrast, is built for anonymizing confidential documents, personal data, and client material.

Manual redaction tools require you to select each item to anonymize, one at a time. Celatum automatically detects names, addresses, AVS numbers, IBANs, dates of birth, and 45+ other identifier types in DOCX files, lets you enable or disable them in a review panel, and applies the anonymizations in a single pass.

Each seat activates one user on one device. For firms, multi-seat plans group several seats under a single billing entity, with discounts starting at 6, 11, and 26 seats. Reassigning a seat to a different user or device is simple: open the license management page and activate the license on the other device.

Your license remains active until the end of the period you have already paid for. After that, the app no longer allows new anonymizations, but you keep access to the documents you have already produced. You can reactivate your subscription at any time and resume using Celatum on the same device. No separate data-export step is needed: all documents and generated data are already stored locally on your computer.

The detection model is trained on multilingual text and works on documents in German, French, Italian, and English (the four Swiss working languages). It recognises 50+ identifier types including persons, organisations, addresses, AVS numbers, IBANs, dates of birth, phone numbers, email addresses, court references, case numbers, and more.
