Where file cleaning fits
Report and presentation generators turn customer inputs into downloadable files. Add Free AI Wiper after the final export to inspect and remove supported document properties. The API fits repeatable PDF, DOCX, PPTX and XLSX delivery workflows.
An example handoff
A reporting service exports a presentation with charts and an internal author property. Cleaning a supported author field can remove that property while protected slide content stays unchanged. It does not remove a staff name printed on a slide. This example describes a possible workflow, not a measured customer outcome.
A repeatable workflow
- Generate the final PDF or Office package before cleaning.
- Submit the export and select supported personal metadata removal when appropriate.
- Review successful output before exposing the download. Keep unsupported files in a separate failure path.
When Pro makes sense
Choose Pro when your application or workflow needs API access. Plus already includes unlimited local cleaning and AI assistant integration (MCP); Pro adds API cleaning and credit top-ups. Local cleaning allowances do not mean unlimited API usage. Compare the current plans and review the API contract before integrating.

Questions about this workflow
Will cleaning change report text, charts or formulas?
Verification checks protected content against the intended edits. Supported Office cleanup preserves text, formulas, styles and relationships. It is not a general document sanitizer: comments, revision history and opaque embedded objects can remain. Check the format guide and test your export templates.
Scope and processing location
Browser cleaning processes file bytes on your device; API jobs upload files for server-side processing. Format support and file-size limits still apply. Outputs are checked for selected supported findings and protected content; an unavailable check is not proof of absence. Cleaning does not prove human authorship, remove every watermark or replace content review. Keep your original and follow your disclosure commitments.
