The demand for robust and sophisticated redaction tools is growing due to evolving privacy regulations and the need to protect sensitive information. Veritone, a leader in enterprise AI, has significantly enhanced its Veritone Redact application with new AI-powered features, including voice masking, inverse blur, and expanded multilingual transcription, transforming how organizations handle audio and video redaction for compliance and privacy.
Veritone Redact adds AI-powered voice masking to anonymize voices securely.
New inverse blur feature redacts entire scenes while highlighting key subjects.
Transcription capabilities are now available in 64 different languages.
The updates address new state legislation in Washington and Minnesota.
Voice masking preserves tone and inflection while making voices untraceable.
These features enhance efficiency for legal, law enforcement, and corporate use.
A cornerstone of the update is the new AI-powered voice masking feature. Leveraging Veritone's aiWARE operating system, it replaces original voices with AI-generated alternatives that maintain the same tone and inflection while ensuring the voice is distinct and untraceable. This method addresses the limitations of traditional pitch alteration and directly supports compliance with new state legislation, such as in Washington and Minnesota, which mandate voice alteration that preserves vocal characteristics while ensuring anonymity.
The highly anticipated inverse blur functionality introduces a new approach to visual redaction. This feature allows users to redact an entire scene while selectively highlighting one or more persons or objects of interest. By obscuring all other visual details, it saves significant time and enhances precision in managed services or operational workflows. Users can now apply this effect seamlessly to isolate key subjects without manually adjusting multiple redaction boxes, all while maintaining strict compliance with privacy laws.
To address the needs of global organizations, Veritone Redact now supports transcription in 64 languages. This expansion enables users to transcribe and subsequently redact audio and video files directly in their native language, breaking down language barriers that previously complicated redaction processes. This capability is crucial for multinational corporations and public sector agencies dealing with evidentiary material in multiple languages.
The introduction of these features marks a significant leap forward in redaction technology, moving beyond simple blurring and muting. By combining secure voice anonymization, intelligent visual focusing, and broad language support, Veritone Redact provides a comprehensive, AI-driven solution that meets the critical and evolving privacy, compliance, and productivity demands of modern enterprises and public safety organizations.
