Your files tell more than you think. Shred the metadata.
ShredHub reveals hidden EXIF, GPS, author and device data in your images, PDFs and documents — and removes it before you share. Nothing ever leaves your browser.
No signup required for the first scan. Files stay on your device.
Privacy you can verify
Most tools upload your files to a server. ShredHub does not.
Files never leave your device
Analysis and cleaning run entirely in your browser using Web Workers. There is no upload endpoint — by architecture, not by promise.
Only you see the report
Scan history is optional and opt-in. Store reports in your account, or keep everything in your session.
Open about what we look for
Every detected field is explained in plain language, with a risk rating and a source. No black box.
Everything you need to go from exposed to anonymous
One workflow: scan, understand, clean, share.
Deep metadata analysis
EXIF, XMP, IPTC, GPS, device identifiers, authorship, software history, embedded thumbnails, hidden trailing data and more.
One-click cleaning
Remove GPS only, strip all identifying fields, or go maximum: re-encode, normalize timestamps and rename. Then verify the result.
Learn as you go
Our blog explains where metadata comes from, why it matters for privacy and copyright, and how to keep control of it.
How it works
Three steps, seconds, zero uploads.
