Accelerate Redaction with AI
Public pressure on greater transparency has spurred the creation of new legislation requiring the quick release of evidence for inquiries like Freedom of Information Act requests (FOIA).
Compounding record high requests, law enforcement agencies face an increase in video footage as evidence. With 60% of local police departments and nearly 50% of sheriff offices fully adopting body-worn cameras*, the sheer volume of video files that must be redacted to protect personally identifiable information (PII) is at an all-time high.
We’ve seen a 10-minute video take a full eight-hour workday to redact frame by frame* manually. Meeting FOIA requests and staying in compliance is a monumental task, especially for agencies that may lack the resources to complete them in a timely fashion.
In collaboration with PoliceOne, we created the ebook Taking the Burden Out Of Audio And Video Redaction, which explores how AI-powered audio and video redaction can automate the burden of removing PII, enabling agencies to scale their redaction capabilities to reduce their public record request backlog.
