Remove the author name from your Word document
Every Office file quietly records who made it. Open the properties of a .docx, .xlsx or .pptx and you'll find the author and last-modified-by names, your company, the total editing time, and often the template it came from. Send a document without clearing that, and the recipient learns exactly who wrote it and how long it took. MetaMarshal reads those fields in your browser and strips them so the file carries the content, not your name.

Processed on your device — nothing is uploaded unless you tap the optional AI estimate.
Nothing leaves your device to clean a photo — the only exception is the optional AI location estimate, which sends a downscaled copy off-device, and only after you tap to confirm.
How it works
1
Drop a .docx, .xlsx or .pptx above — it's parsed in your browser, so the document never uploads.
2
See the hidden properties: author, last-modified-by, company, manager, total editing time and template.
3
Strip the identifying fields and confirm they're cleared.
4
Download the clean file, ready to hand in or send on without revealing who authored it.
