Pimloc’s core product, Secure Redact, uses AI to automatically detect and anonymise sensitive content across video, audio, screens, and imagery and is delivered via SaaS, APIs, and private cloud. The platform is deployed across sectors including law enforcement, healthcare, education, insurance, transport, and retail, and has integrations with Microsoft, Eagle Eye Networks, Milestone Systems, and Rhombus Systems. Adoption is scaling rapidly, with the company reporting over 120% year-on-year growth in platform adoption, and the platform has anonymised nearly half a billion instances of personally identifiable information (PII). Pimloc is expanding its channel partner network and positioning Secure Redact as privacy-first infrastructure for organisations handling sensitive visual data. Future plans highlighted in the articles include geographic expansion into new regions, deeper sector penetration in privacy-sensitive industries, strengthening ecosystem partnerships, and accelerating adoption in screen redaction, creative content compliance, and fintech workflows. Investors are positioned to provide strategic support across AI, cybersecurity, national infrastructure, and other domain areas to back Pimloc’s next phase of commercial growth. Pimloc builds AI software to quickly anonymize video, automating the blurring of faces and licence plates and offering a suite of visual search services. Its Secure Redact product is sold as a SaaS or delivered via APIs and containers to integrate into local video workflows, and is used by entities that must provide video evidence compliant with GDPR and CCPA. The company serves customers across sectors including transportation, manufacturing, retail, warehousing, education, health, autonomous vehicles, facilities management and law enforcement. Pimloc declined to disclose customer numbers, though CEO Simon Randall said the company has large numbers of users across Europe and the U.S. The startup raised $7.5M in seed funding and previously raised $1.8M in October 2020; the new funds will be used to scale across Europe and the U.S. and to build out sales, marketing and R&D teams. Pimloc plans to expand its product roadmap with a focus on video privacy and compliance, tracking evolving data legislation and public opinion and is in talks with companies about anonymizing visual data to prioritize worker privacy. Pimloc is a U.K.-based computer vision company that builds AI tools to search, classify and redact visual content. It launched a photo classifier called Pholio in 2017 and has since pivoted to focus on visual data protection and search for large image and video collections. Its Secure Redact product automatically detects personal data (faces, bodies, ID cards, tattoos, phone screens) in video and provides an editable, auditable layer for users to review and apply redactions. The company supports multiple deployment models, offering a SaaS solution and on-premise installations to accommodate different data-processing requirements. Pimloc cites use cases across law enforcement (anonymizing bodycam footage), academic research (anonymizing egocentric video datasets), and enterprise customers in mobility, insurance, health and security. It reports over 100 users signed up for the SaaS service and has begun setting up on-premise implementations.
