# Desanatization PII Sanitizer

> Desanatization PII Sanitizer is a paid API for AI agents from desanatization-production.up.railway.app, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-02).

Removes personally identifiable information (PII) from text, redacting SSNs, credit card numbers, emails, phone numbers, secrets, and URL tokens

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability desanatization-pii-sanitizer-a642f5cf
```

Example prompt: Can you sanitize this text before we log it — it might contain emails, phone numbers, SSNs, or credit card numbers: 'Call John at 415-555-0192 or john.doe@email.com, card ending 4111 1111 1111 1111, SSN 123-45-6789'?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call PII scrubber that handles multiple redaction classes (SSNs, credit cards, emails, phones, secrets, URL tokens) in a single call with per-category counts, especially for AI agent pipelines that need to sanitize user input before logging, storing, or forwarding to downstream models.

## Known failure modes

- Missing 'text' query parameter returns an error response
- Empty input string may return success with zero redactions
- Malformed request may result in HTTP 4xx
- Service unavailability on Railway hosting returns HTTP 5xx
- Very long text inputs may hit character limits or timeout

## How this service works

PII sanitization for AI agents

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a boolean success flag, the sanitized clean text (PII replaced with redaction placeholders), a requestId, timestamp, input and output character counts, and a redactions object with integer counts per category (SSNs, cards, emails, phones, secrets, urlTokens).
