The short answer
CaseGuard fits a records office that redacts every kind of file offline and wants it all in one licensed suite. Its Media Suite is listed at $299 per user per month, paid annually.
If your job is video only, VIDIO covers faces, documents in shot and spoken details in the browser, and you can try it on the free plan first.

Where CaseGuard Studio is the better fit
- Works offline. CaseGuard installs on your own machines, which matters when files cannot be uploaded anywhere.
- Documents in the same suite. Doc Suite and Ultimate Suite redact paperwork as well as media, so a records team needs one product.
- Batch and collaboration. The Ultimate Suite adds batch redaction and collaboration for teams working through large request backlogs.
- Transcription included. Its suite pairs redaction with transcription, useful for interview and hearing records.
Where VIDIO is the better fit
- No seat license. You pay for credits, not per user per year, so an occasional redaction job does not need a $3,588-a-year seat.
- Papers in the shot. Blur confidential documents finds letterheads and text blocks on a page and keeps them covered as the sheet moves.
- Spoken details bleeped. Audio redaction flags names, addresses and ID numbers in the transcript and can change one speaker's voice.
- Nothing to install. It runs in a browser, including on a phone.
