Compress evidence screenshots safely before sharing
Large screenshots often need to be shared in tickets, reports, emails, and vendor escalations — but they can also contain hidden metadata and visible sensitive information. PixBatch helps you clean, redact, compress, and hash image files locally in your browser before sharing a safer copy.
Evidence image checklist
Use this quick checklist before sharing screenshots outside your device, team, or organization.
Remove or review EXIF/GPS metadata before sharing screenshots or photos
Redact names, emails, IP addresses, case IDs, and internal hostnames
Compress large screenshots so they fit ticketing, email, and report limits
Keep a clean exported copy separate from the original source image
Generate a hash when you need a simple integrity reference for a file
Document what was changed before sending images to vendors or third parties
Why evidence screenshots need extra care
Screenshots are quick to capture but easy to overshare. A browser tab, notification, hostname, IP address, customer name, or GPS metadata field can reveal more than intended. A safer workflow is to redact visible details, remove metadata, compress the final copy, and keep the original only where your process requires it.
Smaller files for tickets
Compress clean screenshots before uploading them to ticketing systems, case notes, email, chat, or documentation pages.
Privacy-first handling
PixBatch tools run client-side, helping you avoid uploading sensitive screenshots to a third-party image-processing server.
Simple integrity reference
Generate a SHA hash for the original or final image when you need a simple file integrity reference for notes or workflows.
A safer screenshot preparation workflow
Review sensitive details
Check the screenshot for names, emails, account IDs, IP addresses, URLs, messages, notifications, and other private context.
Redact before compression
Blur, pixelate, or black out sensitive areas first so the shared copy only contains the information the recipient needs.
Compress the clean copy
Use browser-side compression to reduce file size for tickets, reports, chat, email, or case-management tools.
Hash or archive when needed
For simple tracking, generate a SHA hash of the final image or keep the original separately according to your workflow.
Common evidence screenshot use cases
This workflow is useful whenever screenshots need to be shared without exposing more detail than the recipient needs.
Prepare a safer screenshot package
Redact sensitive areas, remove metadata, compress the final copy, and generate a hash when your workflow needs a simple file reference.
