About Scrubs

Healthcare workers share photos constantly — a wound to consult a colleague, a chart to coordinate care, a med list to confirm a dose. Most of those photos contain protected health information that shouldn't leave the device unredacted: names on wristbands, MRNs on charts, faces in the frame. Redacting by hand is tedious and easy to skip, and the tools that do it well are stuck on desktops or behind enterprise licenses.

Scrubs is an iPhone app that detects and redacts PHI in healthcare photos before they're shared. Capture or import an image, and on-device Face detection + OCR combined with a PHI classifier identifies the sensitive regions automatically — patient identifiers, dates of birth, identifiable faces — and masks them out. You get a clean, shareable version in seconds.

Everything runs on the device. No patient data is uploaded, stored, or sent to a third party, which keeps Scrubs aligned with how clinicians actually need to work: fast, private, and on the phone they're already holding.
