Highlight.io
regex-matches emails, ssns, card numbers, addresses and ips anywhere on the page, not just in form fields.
the widest automatic pii detection of the open-source options, with no published rate at the volume this page compares.
most tools mask inputs. highlight masks inputs and then goes looking: by default it 'will obfuscate all inputs and any text that matches commonly used regex expressions of personally identifiable information', naming emails, ssns, phone numbers, credit card numbers, unformatted 9-16 digit sequences, addresses and ip addresses. that catches the case the input-only maskers miss entirely — pii rendered onto the page rather than typed into it, like an order confirmation showing the customer's address back to them.
the controls are granular: a `strict` setting for more aggressive masking, `none` to disable, and css classes (`highlight-ignore`, `highlight-block`, `highlight-mask`) for element-level overrides. most of the repo is apache 2.0, with the `highlight.io/` and `enterprise/` directories under separate licences.

we researched this category against vendors' own pricing pages and licence files. that is where this line comes from — not from the vendor, and not from anything they paid for.
