How this service works
Detects PII in text: emails, phones, SSNs, credit cards, addresses, names, IPs, and API tokens. Returns matches + risk_level, with optional redaction using [TYPE] tokens. Use it as a PII detector, personal data scanner, data leak scanner, or privacy redaction API.
Output
Returns a list of detected PII matches, each with entity type (e.g. EMAIL, PHONE, SSN, CREDIT_CARD, ADDRESS, NAME, IP, API_TOKEN), the matched value and its position in the text, and an overall risk_level (e.g. low/medium/high). If redaction is requested, also returns the original text with all PII replaced by [TYPE] placeholder tokens.
Example use cases
Sanitize user input before LLM processing
“Before sending this support ticket to the AI summarizer, scan it for any PII — emails, phone numbers, credit cards — and replace them with [TYPE] tokens so we don't leak personal data: 'Customer Jane Doe (jane.doe@gmail.com, 415-555-0192) reported an issue with card ending 4111111111111111.'”
Audit logs for accidental data exposure
“Check these application logs for any accidentally included sensitive data like API keys, SSNs, or IP addresses and tell me the risk level: 'User login from 192.168.1.55, token: sk-abc123XYZ, user ssn=987-65-4321.'”
Privacy compliance check before data storage
“I'm about to store some form submission text in our database — can you scan it for PII and flag what types of personal data it contains and how risky it is? Text: 'Full name: Maria Lopez, DOB: 01/15/1990, address: 742 Evergreen Terrace, Springfield, IL 62701.'”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://x402.agentutility.ai/detect-piiWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need lightweight, pay-per-call PII scanning without managing a dedicated NLP service or compliance tool. Ideal for agents that occasionally process user-submitted text, log snippets, or form data and need a quick privacy check or redaction step before passing data downstream. Best for use cases where privacy compliance, data leak prevention, or LLM input sanitization is needed on demand.
Side effects
- Empty or missing text body returns a validation error
- Very long text may exceed input limits
- Unusual formatting or obfuscated PII (e.g. spaces inserted in SSN) may reduce detection accuracy
- Non-English text may result in lower name/address detection recall
- Payment failure via x402 returns 402 status before any processing occurs
