Overview
Pilosa is a web-based DSAR (Data Subject Access Request) and document redaction platform designed to help organizations securely process, review, and redact sensitive personal data at scale.
The product explores how automation and intelligent tooling can reduce the manual effort, risk, and time involved in compliance workflows — without removing human oversight.
This case study focuses on information hierarchy, workflow design, and trust-driven UX for sensitive legal and compliance tasks.
The Problem
Handling DSAR requests is slow, manual, and error-prone.
Organizations responding to privacy requests often rely on:
manual document review
copy-paste redaction
disconnected tools
unclear audit trails
This creates several risks:
missed or incorrect redactions
inconsistent handling of sensitive data
long turnaround times
high operational cost
Existing tools are either too technical, too fragmented, or not designed for real compliance workflows.
The Opportunity
There is a clear opportunity to design a focused, purpose-built redaction tool that:
supports DSAR workflows end to end
automates repetitive redaction tasks
keeps humans in control of final decisions
provides clarity, traceability, and confidence
feels trustworthy and professional
The challenge is designing a system that balances automation with accountability.
Final Designs
Below are the final UI designs created for Pilosa.
